I am out here living my absolute best life, well at least trying to. In order to live your best life you must unapologetically be yourself even if it means having 20 plus quirks and odd things that make you, you. Unpopular opinions were trending on Twitter a few months ago, so forgive me for hopping on the train a little late. To switch it up, I will call these 20 unpopular opinions "hot takes". It's a term some of my friends use literally every single day when making a bold statement about something that may or may not fit into the norm. So without further adieu, enjoy!

1. Twitter night mode is a no go

I literally cannot see anything, and for that reason I stick to the classic white. Sorry bout it.

2. Birkenstocks are not comfortable, those boys HURT


If you think Birks are a comfortable piece of footwear, you are a pathological liar, or maybe my feet are just whack.

3. Coffee and caffeine suck, I will pass any day

Happy birthday to the gROOOOOunD!!!! (If you know, you know). Coffee does not taste good to me, and caffeine gives me terrible anxiety so both are a no from me.

4. YouTube videos are superior to any television show

This GIF is so me when I get my hands on some good content. YouTube is amazing because you can watch literally any and everything you want and it is right at your fingertips. Oh, and it's free.

5. Football is the most boring sport to exist

Football is too slow paced for me. I am a basketball girl for sure, but football is a sport I do not have the patience for.

6. Hanging out with a large group of girls for an extended period of time is not my idea of "fun"

Spending hours upon hours with a ton of girls overwhelms me and I am not about it. I'd rather spend time with a few friends, by myself, or around guys. Male energy is naturally more laid back and low maintenance, which I am all about.

7. Orange Gatorade is the best

Delicious. Plain and simple.

8. I have no desire to go to NYC

I think NYC is overhyped and I have zero desire to visit the capital of tourism. Large crowds are no fun, and so are people who want to be like everyone else, and NYC tourists give me that vibe. So I'll pass.

9. I love the cold more than life, summer is the worst season

I am a cold weather junkie, catch me in my natural element. Another plus is you will rarely find me in a bad mood during the winter months, so if you're down for a super happy Madison, be my best friend when it gets chilly!

10. Sushi and seafood are no bueno

I'm sorry, but the thought of a raw sea creature in my mouth freaks me out to the max. As for seafood, that stuff stinks so bad, I do not need that inside my stomach.

11. Pretzels dipped in ranch are fire

Don't knock it till you try it!

12. Pickled okra is superior to the mundane dill pickle

I'm sorry, this one is probably straight up nasty but I'm a fan.

13. Reading and writing ROCKS

These are two of my favorite hobbies, and yes I am a huge nerd.

14. Spring water is nasty, vapor distilled, or purified is where it's at!

Spring water is scary. Take your happy self to the grocery store, grab yourself a nice bottle of vapor distilled water and get back to me. You're welcome in advance.

15. I don't get super excited when a dog comes up to me

I only like a few of my friends' puppy pals, and other than that I don't want a random mildly cute to ugly dog licking my leg, jumping on me, and digging its nails into my skin because it's "excited."

16. Working out is super fun

Believe it or not, working out can be very enjoyable! My favorite exercises involve lateral bands and TRX. Both very fun in my opinion.

17. The beach low key sucks

Sand in all your crevices, sticky sunscreen mixed with grimy ocean water, and the beating sun..... miss me with that.

18. Taking time out of my day to do my hair and makeup is disappointing

To be honest, I'm just a lazy girl who is trying to do the damn thing and not waste a second of my time on my outer appearance because quite frankly, I do not care. I'm cute with and without makeup.

19. Wet swiffering is a top 5 hobby

I actually love cleaning and my guilty pleasure freshman year of college was wet swiffering the floors of my dorm. Stressed?
Wet Swiffer. Bored? Wet Swiffer.

20. Sleeping on top of your comforter is a power move, I don't like sheets

I have no idea when or why this became a thing, but I cannot tell you the last time I slept beneath a duvet. I just wash the top layer and my pillowcases, sheets untouched. Weird? Yep, cya later.

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.

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.
