To go out or not to go out this Friday night...

We've all been there - you've been saying since Tuesday after French that this weekend is the weekend. You're finally going to break out those new heels and actually put on eyeliner on and make this Friday night be one for the memory books! That is, of course, until Girls Night Out turned into...Girls Night In.

Pregaming the pregame

You've been talking up this night pretty much all week. There's a list of songs to play next to your calc notes and you've already picked out the perfect outfit in your mind, then changed it 10 times before returning back to the original outfit.

Coming home after a long day

No matter if you worked ten hours or ten minutes, you've made it! You are home, the bra is coming off, and the fun is about to start!

Waiting patiently for your roommates to come home/your friends to come over

Although you're day's finished, that doesn't necessarily equate that your girls are also free and able to get this party started. So you clean your apartment, pluck your eyebrows, make some tea, watch some Netflix, pretty much anything to pass the time before your people arrive.

People have arrived and it's time to eat

FINALLY everyone is in the same room and it's time to get this party started...and no party can get truly started without getting some food down first.

Talking about going out but make no real effort actually get ready to go out

You'll start getting your makeup on once this episode of the Bachelor is over, or once you finish this bag of chips, or really at the end of whatever task is currently at hand, which is clearly more interesting than getting your thighs in that pair of skinny jeans.

Looking at the clock and realize, it's game time...and you're just not ready

You don't know when 4:30 turned into 10:30 but somewhere in between tacos and hearing about that guy in your roommates accounting class asking that freshman out via Twitter, time truly got away from you and you're starting to ponder if you even really want to go out.

Breaking out the wine because, well, if you're going out you may as well have one drink first.

Because one glass of vino never hurt anyone...

Getting into a really deep philosophical conversation about life its meaning and your role in it

You can't really identity how this conversation started but all you know is that you can't really stop talking about what it all really means, like really really means.

You start giving each other 'the look'

Better known as, 'are you thinking about how good yoga pants would feel right now also' look.

Weighing the options

Going out...not going out...going out...not going out

Changing into your PJs, putting your hair in a messy bun, getting comfy on the couch and getting ready for your girls night in

Because sitting at home with the girls watching a movie starring Ryan Gosling's abs and talking about life is much better than attempting to put on heels and eyeliner anyways!

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.

Winter break is over, we're all back at our respective colleges, and the first week of classes is underway. This is a little bit how that week tends to go.

The professor starts to go over something more than the syllabus

You get homework assigned on the first day of class

There are multiple group projects on the syllabus

You learn attendance is mandatory and will be taken every class

Professor starts chatting about their personal life and what inspired them to teach this class

Participation is mandatory and you have to play "icebreaker games"

Everybody is going out because its 'syllabus week' but you're laying in bed watching Grey's Anatomy

Looking outside anytime past 8 PM every night of this week

Nobody actually has any idea what's happening this entire week

Syllabus week is over and you realize you actually have to try now...or not

Now it's time to get back into the REAL swing of things. Second semester is really here and we all have to deal with it.

Whether you specialized in ringing people up or preparing the food, if you worked at Panera Bread it holds a special place in your heart. Here are some signs that you worked at Panera in high school.

1. You own so many pairs of khaki pants you don’t even know what to do with them

Definitely the worst part about working at Panera was the uniform and having someone cute come in. Please don’t look at me in my hat.

7 Ways to Make Your Language More Transgender and Nonbinary Inclusive

With more people becoming aware of transgender and non-binary people, there have been a lot of questions circulating online and elsewhere about how to be more inclusive. Language is very important in making a space safer for trans and non-binary individuals. With language, there is an established and built-in measure of whether a place could be safe or unsafe. If the wrong language is used, the place is unsafe and shows a lack of education on trans and non-binary issues. With the right language and education, there can be more safe spaces for trans and non-binary people to exist without feeling the need to hide their identities or feel threatened for merely existing.

Blair Waldorf
Stop Hollywood

For those of you who have watched "Gossip Girl" before (and maybe more than just once), you know how important of a character Blair Waldorf is. Without Blair, the show doesn’t have any substance, scheme, or drama. Although the beginning of the show started off with Blair’s best friend Serena returning from boarding school, there just simply is no plot without Blair. With that being said, Blair’s presence in the show in much more complex than that. Her independent and go-getter ways have set an example for "Gossip Girl" fans since the show started and has not ended even years after the show ended. Blair never needed another person to define who she was and she certainly didn’t need a man to do that for her. When she envisioned a goal, she sought after it, and took it. This is why Blair’s demeanor encompasses strong women like her.
