Thank you for the best year ever

To The Friends I Made Freshman Year Of College
Alex Melito

Now that freshman year has come to an end, I am left here wondering how I'm going to survive the summer without the friends I made this year. With college being such a big life change and transition, I was truly blessed with the best group of friends, who have become like family.

Thank you for always being there for me when I needed it most. Whether it was giving me a ride to the supermarket, helping with homework, or just listening to my problems, there was never hesitation to offer assistance in any way.

Thank you for being my partners in crime. At parties when a bathroom buddy was needed, or there was someone to be avoided, you all never failed to help. Not to mention, when the RA's would get on our case about something, we all had each others backs and never singled anyone out!

Thank you for tripling the size of my closet and being my stylists. Every time there was a date party, formal, party, or even just going to class, I could always count on having honest opinions on outfits, and even being able to borrow articles of clothing or accessories.

Thank you for never failing to make me laugh. On the good days, or the bad days, I could always count on having someone to make me almost pee myself laughing. Even though some of the weird things said made me question our friendship, it always did the trick and made me smile.

Thank you for being people I could trust. Every time I needed an honest opinion on something, or needed to talk about something personal, it was an unspoken agreement that everything that was said would be kept secret.

Thank you for showing me that college is where you find your forever friends. Dealing with some fake people all throughout the earlier years of school, this was a refreshing change. I can't wait to see where life brings us all throughout the next three years!

Thank you for the best freshman year I could ask for. The late night talks, crazy ideas, inside jokes, and blackmail worthy snapchat stories, will never be forgotten. You all made the transition to college so easy and I can only hope every high school senior experiences the same when they arrive at college.

This is for the girls who have dealt with an emotionally, mentally, physically or verbally abusive father.

The ones who have grown up with a false lens of what love is and how relationships should be. The ones who have cried themselves to sleep wondering why he hurts you and your family so much. This is for all the girls who fall in love with broken boys that carry baggage bigger than their own, thinking it's their job to heal them because you watched your mother do the same.

Blair Waldorf Quote
"DESTINY IS FOR LOSERS. IT'S JUST A STUPID EXCUSE TO WAIT FOR THINGS TO HAPPEN INSTEAD OF MAKING THEM HAPPEN." - BLAIR WALDORF.

The world stopped in 2012 when our beloved show "Gossip Girl" ended. For six straight years, we would all tune in every Monday at 9:00 p.m. to see Upper Eastside royalty in the form of a Burberry headband clad Blair Waldorf. Blair was the big sister that we all loved to hate. How could we ever forget the epic showdowns between her and her frenemy Serena Van Der Woodsen? Or the time she banished Georgina Sparks to a Christian summer camp? How about that time when she and her girls took down Bart Bass? Blair is life. She's taught us how to dress, how to be ambitious, and most importantly, how to throw the perfect shade.

We've all been there. From move-in day to the first finals week in college, your first term is an adventure from start to finish. In honor of college decisions coming out recently, I want to recap some of the most common experiences college freshmen experience.

1. The awkward hellos on move-in day.

You're moving your stuff onto your floor, and you will encounter people you don't know yet in the hallway. They live on your floor, so you'll awkwardly smile and maybe introduce yourself. As you walk away, you will wonder if they will ever speak to you again, but don't worry, there's a good chance that you will make some great friends on your floor!

We all freak out when things don't go exactly as planned or when our expectations are unmet. As time goes on, we realize that the uncertainty of college is what makes it great. Here are some helpful reminders about life in college.

Recently I completed my freshman year of college, and boy, what an experience. It was a completely new learning environment and I can't believe how much I learned. In an effort to save time, here are the ten biggest lessons I learned from my first year of college.

1. Everyone is in the same boat

For me, the scariest part of starting school was that I was alone, that I wouldn't be able to make any friends and that I would stick out. Despite being told time and time again that everyone had these same feelings, it didn't really click until the first day when I saw all the other freshman looking as uneasy and uncomfortable as me. Therefore, I cannot stress this enough, everyone is feeling as nervous as you.
