I'll start with saying that of course, this is easier said than done. I've been there, and a lot of my loved ones have also been there. If you choose to get one thing out of this, it is my words of encouragement, and to know you are not alone.

But once you put that part of your life in the past for good, it gets easier every damn day.

In light of recent situations I hope that Khloe Kardashian is finally inspiring other women out there who keep going back to a boy thats not deserving of her. Her situation describes it perfectly. You fall head over heels in love, you think you have finally gotten what you deserve, but they will eventually reveal their true selfish self. You need to be capable of stepping back, becoming rational and realizing that this isn't love.

This is a realization you may put on the back-burner for a while. But of course, I understand how Khloe tried to make it work originally for her baby girl, True. But now I think she has realized that being with the father of her child would be a bad example of a relationship for her daughter, and an even worse example of how your significant other should treat you. So freakin finally Khloe is cutting ties from Tristin for good. Proud of you Klo, and I really hope this has sparked a flame in other woman who are being treated with disrespect as well.

There are many reasons why this happens, and I believe the number one reason is "comfort". Going back to someone -- who doesn't deserve you in the slightest -- often happens because you get comfortable. You get comfortable with being treated horribly. You get comfortable with not having to go on dates and meet someone new, and you get comfortable with not having to start over. And of course I get that there are so many different kinds of situations, and this can be a sensitive subject for some people.

If this boy isn't deserving of you, you usually can tell right away but if you’re unable tell, your friends or family can usually tell right away. Sometimes we can be blindsided of course. Listen to the signs, don't ignore them. Even if you just get comfortable with how they treat you, or how they don't treat you.

I've personally felt once you 100% have let go, you truly see all the other people out there that are worth getting to know, and new relationships that are worth exploring.

This goes for all aspects of life, push yourself out of your comfort zone constantly, if you find yourself being comfortable all the time, you aren't growing as an individual. If you aren't growing as an individual, how can you expect yourself to grow with a significant other?

Dear High School Friend Group,

My sweet angels, where would I be without you guys. We all grew up together because we either met in middle school or high school and watched each other grow up and get "old." We got to go to prom together and then graduate together. Then watched each other as we continued our lives in college, joining sororities and meeting people who will impact our lives forever. It all has happened so fast.

Oh college, we can’t live with you, but we can’t live without you. It’s a love/hate relationship, really. College is an experience that no one can ever prepare you for, and maybe that’s a good thing. You never really expect any of the things that college encompasses until you are there. College is fun, but don’t have too much fun. C’s get degrees, but they don’t get you into graduate school.

Blair Waldorf

The "Gossip Girl" series may be over, but Blair Waldorf's iconic character lives in our hearts forever. Blair was the queen of the Upper East Side, and a character you either loved or hated. She taught us everything we needed to know about life, love and of course, how to score a Chuck Bass. So the next time you feel a bit lost and are in need of guidance, look no further than to the Queen B herself.

As I spend my Sunday avoiding my homework and other adult responsibilities, I realized that I've watched this series over and over about a million times. Sadly, there isn't a Blair quote I don't know, so I came up with a list of a few favorites. You know you love her...xoxo

College is an endless cycle of crappy, sleepless nights, tedious, boring lectures, and hours of never-ending piles of homework.

two women enjoying confetti

Summer: a time (usually) free from school work and a time to relax with your friends and family. Maybe you go on a vacation or maybe you work all summer, but the time off really does help. When you're in college you become super close with so many people it's hard to think that you won't see many of them for three months. But, then you get that text saying, "Hey, clear your schedule next weekend, I'm coming up" and you begin to flip out. Here are the emotions you go through as your best friend makes her trip to your house.
