Shamelessly, I can't help myself.

That Unhealthy Obsession We All Have With David Dobrik Videos Is Realer Than Ever

I didn't think I'd ever come to this day where I'd admit something like this, but it's gotten pretty bad at this point. If you're a fan of comedy (or even not sometimes) and have at least four minutes and 20 seconds to spare three days a week, these are the videos for you.

Of recent days, I've realized that I have a bit of an unhealthy obsession with none other than David Dobrik. I swear it's small, minuscule, barely an obsession, obsession.

Right. Now I feel like I need to explain myself a bit!

I wouldn't say I'm obsessed to the point where I have his tweet notifications turned on or I'm buying all of his merch, but I literally just can't stop watching his videos, it's a problem.

Anybody that's a fan of David Dobrik is a fan of what they call themselves the entire "vlog squad." The vlog squad is combined of probably the most entertaining and fun group of friends you could ever imagine. After David, the rest of the group is primarily made up of Scotty Sire, Toddy Smith, Alex Ernst, Liza Koshy, Zane Hijazi, Corinna Kopf, Heath Hussar, Josh Peck, Jason Nash, Matt King, Kristen McAtee, Erin Gilfoy and Carly Incontro (deep apologies to anyone forgotten!). Most of them have their own YouTube channel as well, all worth checking out as well. Surprisingly (or maybe not) All of them came from Vine when it was still a thing (RIP).

Now, anybody watching his videos has to understand their crude, dry, idiotic sense of humor. But still, it's too addicting to pass up. Fortunately, you have to be able to handle sometimes uncomfortable, sometimes unsettling language amongst the most semi-normal (ish) people you know. I truthfully don't know how one person is able to think of so many pranks, so many jokes, so many bits in one day or even one week to still be funny without coming off as repetitive. Honestly though, as much as I'd think I'd want to be friends with all them, I don't think I could handle a lot of the cruel jokes they pull. If you know, you know!

As shameful as I feel to admit I'm a fan of his vlogs (am I really?), it's almost funny when I'm out in public and I see someone else wearing his merch cause in my head I always think, "Yeah, I watch his videos too." They're straight up just entertainment.

For anyone that thinks you can't make a living off YouTube, yeah I still don't know how. You can watch all these people and all the videos and just think HOW do they make money? But they do and I don't mind one bit as long as I continue to get these vlogs.

So shameless or not, I'm a fan and as long as he continues uploading vlogs, the more I'll continue to keep watching them.

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.
