You finish a great year at school, pack up all your stuff, and head back home for the summer. At first, it's great because you're happy to be back with your friends and family. Things slowly turn for the worst as you realize you still have responsibilities. These are common things college students feel when they return home for the summer.

You're excited to be home!

You're happy to be back with your family and home friends. Nothing is better than your mom's home-cooked meals.

Still enjoying it

You're hanging out with your friends and catching up. Telling all your college stories and laughing until late at night.

You realize you need to have some sort of income over the summer so you can have the best summer as well as support your Friday nights during the semester.

Your summer class begins

Now summer turns stressful and you have no free time with work and your class.

"I know my life is a mess, Mom, I'm doing my best!"

Bored. Bored. Bored.

The working life is draining you and you're too sober on the weekends.

Night crying occasionally occurs

You really miss your college friends and are ready to be back.

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.

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!

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: Your Spirit Animal

Who wouldn't wanna be Queen B?

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
