Your College Summer According to Gilmore Girls
Lovelace Media

Summer in college is a bittersweet time. On one hand, you can enjoy much needed time away from the stress of classes. On the other hand, you're suddenly far away from some of your closest friends for months. Still, you have dreams of an exciting summer full of adventures, relaxations, and a possible summer fling... All of which, may or may not happen. Regardless of if your summer is full of surfing some waves or surfing through Netflix, Gilmore Girls knows how you really feel.

1. Your plans right after finals.

2. For once, you don't have to worry about Mondays.

3. You're going to ignore all your problems like it's your job and enjoy summer.

4. You have dreams of what your summer is going to be like.

5. In reality, you have to spend a lot more time with your family than your sanity can handle.

6. When you visit your grandparents (or any family), and they're bound to ask about your love life.

7. Because on the off chance you meet someone cute who could be a possible summer fling, you lose the ability to form coherent sentences.

8. Not to mention that you haven't seen your college friends in such a long time.

9. But you get to catch up with old friends back home.

10. Your sleep schedule is completely flipped.

11. We can all agree that the best part of summer is that you don't have to deal with people unless you want to.

12. It's a fine line between having fun and not becoming the next Lindsay Lohan.

13. When summer finally ends, you're happy to see your friends, but depressed to be hitting the books again.

11 Moments Every College Freshman Has Experienced

Because we made it, and because high school seniors deserve to know what they're getting themselves into

too tired to care

We've all been there. From move-in day to the first finals week in college, your first term is an adventure from start to finish. In honor of college decisions coming out recently, I want to recap some of the most common experiences college freshmen experience.

1. The awkward hellos on move-in day.

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!

1. "If I'm wearing black tomorrow, it's because I'm mourning my grade."

2. "Do you want to try ordering Chinese takeout to take back to the stacks?"

3. "This final paper has me questioning if this professor just sucks or is Satan himself."

4. "Is that person over there OK? They've been sleeping for a while."

5. "Why are you online shopping?"

"I want to motivate myself to study."

"Since when do you have money to buy something anyway?"

6. "I wonder how much I could make as a stripper."

7. "There are no stress relief dogs, and I feel conned. My stress today is worse than yesterday."

8. "Rate My Professor screwed me over."

9. "I wore these clothes yesterday, and maybe even the day before, but it's fine."

10. "I wonder if I could sneak a beer in here."

11. "I just really want chocolate chip cookies."

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
