Regular drama just wasn't cool enough.

11 Things Every Girl Wanted From 'Gossip Girl'

Hey Upper East-Siders, Gossip Girl here. Okay, so I might not be the magical voice of Kristen Bell, with the facade of Daniel Humphrey, but being as big as fan I do count as a GG expert right? After re-watching my favorite series ever this week, I realized how much I wanted to flaunt fancy gowns with a glass of champagne at 19. To be apart of the lavish lifestyles of the Upper East-Side of Manhattan, without all of the drama of course. So I compiled a list of some of my favorite things I know every girl wishes they could have!


1. Sit On the Steps of the Met With Blair

During her high school days, Queen B's place was on the steps of the Met Gala with her "minions" and brightly colored headbands! We all wanted to rule the school alongside Blair on the steps, looking super cute and never letting people forget who the real queen was.

2. To Attend Constance Billiard School for Girls

Paired alongside St. Jude's School for Boys, these private schools were the home of drama and cute boys! Who wouldn't want to witness the Serena-Blair cat fights while ogling at all of the cuties? Also have you seen the outfits the girls wear? Hello fashion and goodbye the same t-shirt I might have worn for a week.

3. Fashion Week With the Waldorf's

Front row to all the fashion shows, maybe even get lucky enough to be in it! Yes please, maybe add on the goody bags too? Let's face it, Eleanor Waldorf ruled the fashion scene and with it being the Upper East-Side, it's got to be expensive. Who wouldn't want an all-access pass to the Waldorf fashion line?

4. Invitation to the White Parties

After spending the whole summer tucked away in the Hamptons, the only way to end it is the infamous White Party! Catching all of the missed out summer drama from S & B, and the never before seen vitamin water flavors, the white party was the place to be at the end of the summer.

5. To Be Featured on the Infamous Website

Sure e-blasts weren't the things we wanted to hear about ourselves, but like Lonely Boy said, people were talking about you and that's what gave you power. You wanted to be featured on Gossip Girl because it put the spotlight on you until the next e-blasts surfaced.

6. Go Shopping with Manhattan's "It Girl!"

While Blair ruled Constance, Serena was the 'It' girl, always owning the best and newest trends and shopping at only the classiest of places! From Chanel to Barney's, Serena had undeniable style and was never afraid to flaunt it!

7. Write for the "NY Spectator"

Nate Archibald's newspaper that always had the hot gossip and drama going on around Manhattan. While the paper had trouble starting out, it boomed once they leaked the secret identity of Gossip Girl herself.

8. Thanksgiving Dinner with the Crew

Thanksgiving dinner with any of the Upper East-Side kids is always bound to have crazy amounts of drama and secrets spilling everywhere. It's a day of hunger and arguing over who's relationship is broken up, but always ends with pie and people making up! Something salty to end in something so sweet.

9. Rufus Humphrey's Waffles

Any time Rufus mentions brunch, you know there's going to be waffles. If he's not talking about how good his waffles are, he's talking about his band. Although a band is cool, a band isn't food, Rufus' waffles sound delicious, who doesn't want to try them?

10. Scheming with Blair

Someone bullying you? It's scheme time, and who does schemes better than Queen B herself? Causing loads of trouble and tearing apart anyone who gets in the way, B knows how to humiliate anyone to make sure her plans get fulfilled.

11. Chuck Bass

Need I say more? Chuck Bass was every girls dream boy, and though the series has been over for awhile, he's totally still mine.

Creating your schedule for the upcoming semester can be an exciting process. You have the control to decide if you want to have class two-days a week or five-days a week. You get to check things off of your requirement checklist. It's an opportunity for a fresh start with new classes (which you tell yourself you'll never skip.) This process, which always starts out so optimistic, can get frustrating really quickly. Here are 25 thoughts you have when registering for classes.

10 Thoughts Of A 5th Year Senior

What about those of us who don't do it all in four years?

"College will be the best four years of your life" is a phrase that we have all heard growing up. College is painted as a magical place to us while we are in high school. A place you go to learn, meet your best friends and probably have the time of your life while all of this is going down. Four whirlwind years, where everything that you've known changes and you start to learn what it means to live on your own, have a job, etc. But what about those of us who don't do this all in four years? Major changes, hard courses, switching schools, career paths changing, these are just a handful of factors that could extend your four years to five, six or seven. There is nothing wrong with taking extra time to graduate, but returning as a fifth-year is a little different. Most of your best friends have most likely graduated and moved and while you may be one of the oldest undergraduates on campus, you might feel as awkward as a freshmen. A world that became home and comfortable to you is still there but it's slightly different than you've known it to be and you have to find a groove to fall into. These are thoughts you'll have as you look ahead to returning to your college campus, with a victory lap planned.

In the 12 years since it went off the air, "Friends" continues to be adored by millions. The show that gave generations unrealistic expectations about love (or should I say lobsters?) and New York City apartments had a charming cast of characters that everyone could relate to at some point or another. Here are 17 times Ross, Monica, Joey, Chandler, Phoebe and Rachel accurately described life.

Aubrey Plaza is one of my favorite humans in Hollywood. She's honest, blunt, unapologetic, and hilarious. I just started my sophomore year of college, and found that some of her best moments can accurately describe the start of the school year.

1. When your advisor tells you that you should declare a major soon.

2. Seeing the lost and confused freshmen and remembering that was you a short year ago, and now being grateful you know the ins and outs of the campus.

3. Going to the involvement fair to sign up for more clubs knowing that you are already too involved.

4. When you actually do the reading required for the first class.

5. Seeing your friends for the first time since last semester.

6. When you're already drowning in homework during syllabus week.

7. Realizing you don't have the same excitement for classes as you did as a freshman.

8. Going home and seeing people from high school gets weirder the older you get.
