Let's be honest, dating has become a thing of the past. It seems as if someone asking you on a date is such a novelty, when in reality it's really all that many girls, at least myself, want. Yes, I do have Netflix, and yes I can be chill; however, there are many things I'd rather be doing with someone than sitting in front of a screen watching an episode of something I've probably already seen. So, here are 11 things I'd rather do:

1. Get a milkshake.


You can't go wrong with a classic milkshake and fries.

2. Go to the animal shelter.

After all, if you don't like dogs, I probably don't like you.

3. Go on a hike.


Yeah, I like nature.

4. Play scrabble.


It can be fun, OK?!

5. Go to a concert.

Best date ever.

6. Drive around listening to a playlist of your favorite songs.

Effortless, fun and adventurous? I'll take it.

7. Have a picnic.

There's a reason this is a cliché.

8. Go to a coffee shop.

How a person likes their coffee can say a lot about them. I'll take a double chocolate chip frappuccino with whip, please.

9. Sit by a fire.

Another cliche that's for a reason.

10. Take a road trip.

OK, so maybe you can't always get up and drive all day to a beach. But, a road trip to the nearest city could be fun?!

11. Go ice skating, skiing, rollerblading or biking.

Why sit around when you could do something active?

Don't get me wrong, I am more than happy to watch some Netflix every now and then, but if we're supposed to be "dating" maybe we should, like, ya know, go on dates?!

On the Upper East Side, Blair Waldorf is an icon. She's what every girl aspires to be. She's beautiful, confident, and can handle any obstacle that life throws at her. Sure, she may just be a television character. But for me, she's a role model and theres a lot that can be learned from Queen B.

The Perks of Being a Girl

“I just want you to know that you’re very special… and the only reason I’m telling you is that I don’t know if anyone else ever has.”

We Heart It

Over the past decade, television has undergone a very crucial transition: the incorporation of female lead characters. Since it's a known fact that girls actually do run the world (Beyonce said so herself), it's time for the leading ladies of the small screen to get some credit. Without these characters, women would still be sitting in the background of our favorite shows. These women are not only trailblazers for female empowerment, but role models for women worldwide. With that, here are 15 of the smartest, sassiest ladies gracing our screens that remind us that women do, indeed, rule:
