Let's face it, Mondays are the vegetables of dinner time. Tuesdays are only good because tacos. But once you get halfway through the work/school week, you need to reward yourself for making it that far. In case you haven't indulged in the simple pleasure of unwinding on a wine Wednesday, here's some reasons why you need to start.

It gives you a reason to celebrate.

Congrats you've made it halfway through the week without quitting! That's got to count for something. That something is a celebratory glass of wine.

Wine is delicious.

Giphy

As you all must know by now, wine is a delight to the senses. A Wednesday without wine would be unnecessarily denying yourself life's simple pleasures.

Something to look forward to.

Giphy

Even though Monday and Tuesday are nothing special, they bring you to—you guessed it—WINE WEDNESDAY! So thanks wine Wednesday for getting me through those awful Mondays and Tuesdays.

It’s good for you!

Giphy

According to Medical News Today, wine helps people live longer, protects against cancer, improves mental health and enhances heart health. YOU GO WINE!

Options, options, options.

Whether your perfect Wine Wednesday means sitting on the couch in your sweatpants with your best friend watching #thebachelor, hosting a whole group of friends for a wine and game night or getting all fancy for a wine down event you can't go wrong.

Wine helps you unwind.

Giphy

​Got a big meeting tomorrow? Had a rough day today? What better way to seep into a nice relaxing moment then unwinding with your favorite Merlot? Nothing says mellow better than a Merlot.

There's a flavor for all.

Giphy

Some like it sweet, some tart, some like full-bodied and some like delicate. Whatever your cup of tea (or in this case wine) there is a wine flavor out there for you! What better way to find your favorite than to have a full blown wine tasting Wednesday?

Wine helps boost your confidence.

Giphy

Unlike tequila which often gives you a little too extra of a confidence boost, sipping on some fine wine during a wine Wednesday event might give you just the right amount of confidence to talk to that hunk or honey who has been staring at you from across the bar. Maybe you can even impress them with your extensive knowledge of fine wines.

You need your daily dose of fruit.

Giphy

Although we mostly associate wine with grapes, did you know wine can also be made from other fruits? According to The Daily Fruit Wine, almost any fruit can be used to make some delicious and nutritious wine by compressing the juice and allowing it to ferment.

Wine not?

Giphy

If you have gotten this far and you aren't craving a refreshing glass of vino, I am impressed and a little disappointed. After all, wine does make the world go round (and sometimes round and round and round).

So go ahead. Pick up a glass and join the midweek celebration known as wine Wednesday. You deserve it!

No Matter How Challenging School Gets, You Have To Put Your Health First — A Degree Won't Mean Anything If You're Dead

Some of the best advice I've ever received was from my social studies teacher in sophomore year of high school. He stated, "If you don't know it at midnight, you're not going to know it for the 8 a.m. exam, so get some sleep."

It's such a simple piece of advice, but it holds so much accuracy and it's something that the majority of college students need to hear and listen to. "All-nighters" are a commonality on college campuses in order to cram in studying for an exam that is typically the next day.

This is for the girls who have dealt with an emotionally, mentally, physically or verbally abusive father.

The ones who have grown up with a false lens of what love is and how relationships should be. The ones who have cried themselves to sleep wondering why he hurts you and your family so much. This is for all the girls who fall in love with broken boys that carry baggage bigger than their own, thinking it's their job to heal them because you watched your mother do the same.

Blair Waldorf Quote
"DESTINY IS FOR LOSERS. IT'S JUST A STUPID EXCUSE TO WAIT FOR THINGS TO HAPPEN INSTEAD OF MAKING THEM HAPPEN." - BLAIR WALDORF.

The world stopped in 2012 when our beloved show "Gossip Girl" ended. For six straight years, we would all tune in every Monday at 9:00 p.m. to see Upper Eastside royalty in the form of a Burberry headband clad Blair Waldorf. Blair was the big sister that we all loved to hate. How could we ever forget the epic showdowns between her and her frenemy Serena Van Der Woodsen? Or the time she banished Georgina Sparks to a Christian summer camp? How about that time when she and her girls took down Bart Bass? Blair is life. She's taught us how to dress, how to be ambitious, and most importantly, how to throw the perfect shade.

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!
