Poetry On Odyssey: You And I Are From Different Skies

Loving people through ups and downs...

You and I are from different skies

Brighter than a star my heart glows, every time I talk to you

You and I like two magnets...always drawn together but never able to touch

The words spoken in the heat of the moment forever written in my heart, try as I might to erase them they will never completely fade away

Forever banging on the bolted door that protects your heart

My heart growing cold and hard as pain seeps deeper inside

Your words that make a million butterflies fly out of my chest

Your smile that brightens my day

Your hands that warm my body

You and I are from different skies

We mix and we mold together, not always in harmony

Like a cat to a dog we fight

But like a torch, you are the light that guides me through the darkness

Our hearts beat as one

Life is not complete without you with me

Chasing each other with laughter and joy

Holding each other in sadness and pain

Not knowing when to pull and when to push

You and I are from different skies

There is no perfect, There is hard work

There is pain, There is love

There is hurt, There is happiness.

In differences there is beauty

Hard to trust, harder to lose

Tears of joy mixed with tears of sorrow

Connection deeper than the ocean

Feelings stronger than steel

My hand in yours

You and I are from different skies

Letter To My High School Friend Group

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: Your Spirit Animal

Who wouldn't wanna be Queen B?

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
