Why I Miss College More Than My Home

Things change.

I think that I miss college more than home.

The reason for this is I have people who actually want to hang out with me in college rather than home more. You have all probably seen the famous post saying people at college text me that tthey miss me more than those at home. This is true (well at least for me it is).

Now you may be asking why this is? The answer to this is because many people who are home are wrapped up in being with their families, other friends, and work. There are probably more reasons such as vacation. Therefore, you shouldn't be discouraged if you see a snap story of your friends hanging out or doing something cool.

I also miss college more than home not only because of my friends but because I could go out as late as I wanted and no questions were asked such as where am I going and who am I with? I had no home responsibilities other than taking care of myself, but now I need to take care of more people.

In the end, I miss college more than home and I can't wait to go home (my college home).

This is for the girls who have dealt with an emotionally, mentally, physically or verbally abusive father.

The ones who have grown up with a false lens of what love is and how relationships should be. The ones who have cried themselves to sleep wondering why he hurts you and your family so much. This is for all the girls who fall in love with broken boys that carry baggage bigger than their own, thinking it's their job to heal them because you watched your mother do the same.

Why Blair Waldorf Is The Realest Bitch To Ever Live

XOXO, Gossip Girl.

"DESTINY IS FOR LOSERS. IT'S JUST A STUPID EXCUSE TO WAIT FOR THINGS TO HAPPEN INSTEAD OF MAKING THEM HAPPEN." - BLAIR WALDORF.

The world stopped in 2012 when our beloved show "Gossip Girl" ended. For six straight years, we would all tune in every Monday at 9:00 p.m. to see Upper Eastside royalty in the form of a Burberry headband clad Blair Waldorf. Blair was the big sister that we all loved to hate. How could we ever forget the epic showdowns between her and her frenemy Serena Van Der Woodsen? Or the time she banished Georgina Sparks to a Christian summer camp? How about that time when she and her girls took down Bart Bass? Blair is life. She's taught us how to dress, how to be ambitious, and most importantly, how to throw the perfect shade.

You're moving your stuff onto your floor, and you will encounter people you don't know yet in the hallway. They live on your floor, so you'll awkwardly smile and maybe introduce yourself. As you walk away, you will wonder if they will ever speak to you again, but don't worry, there's a good chance that you will make some great friends on your floor!

Here are some helpful reminders about life in college.
