The importance of showing the people in your life that you care about them cannot be expressed enough. You never know what could happen each day, so a simple saying that shows you care every now and then can mean the world to someone. Without straightforwardly saying "I love you" or "I care about you," there are daily sayings that can be shared to easily show you care. Sometimes you may say some words to them without even realizing that it shows you care. Here are some simple ways to say you care through daily life:

1. I'm so proud of you.

3. How could I forget?

4. You're in my thoughts and prayers.

5. I'll always be here for you.

Life tends to throw curve balls at all of us and we never know what is coming next, so it is important to always share that you care about the people who surround you. There are many more than mentioned, but these simple ways to say you care can be life-changing. Once you hear them too, you'll begin to understand. I'm sure you've heard most of these. They are so easy to share and so thoughtful in many ways. It truly shows that you care about whoever you are saying it too and it is beyond important that they know. Spread the care!

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

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.
