College As Told By 'Gossip Girl'
wikipedia.org

"Gossip Girl here! Your number one source into the scandalous lives of Manhattan's elite."

OK, so our lives are not as extravagant, luxurious nor hella scandalous as Blair and Serena. Well, I hope no one is faking a death, running away or having relationship struggles like Blair and Chuck. But there are times in our daily lives where the characters of "Gossip Girl" felt the same way. College, relationships, people and life can get the best of us. Serena, Blair, Chuck, Nate, Dan and your other favorite characters of "Gossip Girl" relate to your everyday emotions.

1) Boring Winter Weeks

Spring semester consists of the cold, miserable winter winds. Nothing exciting seems to be happening and you seem to have some of the most boring classes at night. Winter is just a dark hole of boring darkness. Just wait until the weekend (or not) and get a little crazy, forget about all your problems, and do things young people do.

2) Talking To Your Crush In Class

Swoon. Those gorgeous blue eyes turned to you and handed you the attendance sheet. Not much may be happening in your love life, but that small conversation you guys just had was magical. Or maybe you are in a great relationship, couldn't be happier and are just completely in love. We all have moments when we feel like there is no one else in the world other than the two of you.

3) Obnoxiously Loud People

You could be trying to study in the library, sleeping in your dorm or relaxing just about anywhere. There is going to be someone who is just beyond too loud for you to handle. I honestly do not think it is acceptable to be screaming at that semi-funny video.

4) Dressing for Comfort

8 a.m.? Friday class? Had a long eventful weekend? No matter the reason there are plenty of times when you are just going to roll out of bed, put on shoes and head to class. It is a struggle we will all have and no one should be judged for the grunge look.

5) Homework

It all piles up at once. Five papers, two tests, surprise quiz in class. It's like our professors plan to have everything due at the same time. All the homework is just the beginning of your stress, and it is always there.

6) Leaving Class For The Last Time

Nothing feels better than walking out of the threshold of your least favorite class with your least favorite classmates for the last time.

7) Pushing Through The Semester

Never seems to get easier as the semester goes on. The weeks are long and your break is just too far away. But if Dan can handle taking care of Georgina's baby, you can finish the semester.

8) Recruitment

No matter which side of recruitment you are on, you meet some really great people. But it can be sad when they get a bid from someone else.

9) Motivation

We want a lot of things: money, nice body, food. Instead of complaining we sometimes just need to go out there and get it. Which is easier said than done but...

10) The Next Morning

Ever woken up kind of dazed by the night you just had? Someone told you something that happened, you have no idea why you would ever call your ex, or look at your snap-story and just do not remember any of that. #college

11) Finding Your Best Friend Soulmate

You will always have some high school friends. But there is something about the people you meet in your sorority/fraternity, class, or dorm hall. You can find your other half to raise hell with through your crazy college years and your true best friends forever.

12) Failing

Whether it was a test or a class, words won't be able to comprehend how pissed and stress it could possibly make someone.

13) When Your Parents Ask How Classes Are Going

It is just not OK.

14) Dealing With F**kboys/F**kgirls

Literally better off not dealing with any of that crap.

15) Professors

They always seem like they are out to get you. But then they extend the deadline or give extra credit or just try to show some act of kindness.

16) Greek Life

Joining a sorority or fraternity brings one of the best bonds in life. You find people who are first friends, then become more than friends. "First you become a part of it, then it becomes a part of you."

17) Hometown Friends

When you go home after a long time and hang out with old friends it can be weird. Sometimes things just change for the better.

18) College

Just remember, through all the mistakes and stress, college is the best time of your life. Live it up. Have all the fun you can before you become a real adult. You know you love it, xoxo.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
