Winter Life On Campus

You have to wake up earlier than usual, leave your room earlier if you want to make it on time and not fall on your commute

Winter Life On Campus

The first snowfall

If you’re like me, you wait in anticipation for the first snow of the new school year. Here at Augie, it snowed late December 3, and into the early morning and afternoon. Waking up and seeing freshly fallen snow is the best and of course, taking pictures of how beautiful your campus is!

Walking to class

You have to wake up earlier than usual, leave your room earlier if you want to make it on time and not fall on your commute. Also, its freezing, and if you didn’t wear the proper clothing, your entire body is frozen.

Clothing

Break out those winter jackets, boots, hats, gloves, scarves, everything, because its about to get cold. Another thing that sucks is that winter clothing is more expensive than spring or summer clothing.

Getting out of bed

You make yourself so comfortable and warm, and when your alarm goes up, you don’t want to leave your blanket burrito. The struggles of waking up are so real in the winter.

Fire Alarms suck

Fire alarms suck in general, but if you have to evacuate, you better throw on some warm boots and wrap up in a blanket because who knows how long you’re going to be waiting.

All the seasonal drinks

If you have a coffee shop on campus or nearby, it’s finally time to indulge in all of your favorite holiday drinks like peppermint hot chocolate or white hot chocolate (my personal favorite)

The reminder that break is soon

With winter, we’re reminded that Christmas break is soon, and who doesn’t love break? Spending time with family and not worrying about classes for a while.

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.
