College (and life) is full of a lot of what ifs and regrets. As much as we try to be better and do better, it's undeniable that we all slip up sometimes. Thought it may feel shameful, just know that everyone makes similar mistakes. It's hard making the right decisions all the time, and it's usually not possible to do so, either. So don't sweat it too much because it happens everybody all the time. Here's a list of 15 things I wish I did, but didn't, as told by "New Girl."

1. Homework on a Friday night.

2. Ate a salad instead of eating something really unhealthy.

3. Went to bed instead of watching Netflix.

4. Called your parents.

5. Did/folded your laundry when you said you would.

6. Checked the weather before leaving for class.

7. Started studying earlier.

8. Taken better notes in class instead of being lazy and writing down next to nothing.

9. Not to have napped.

10. Taken a risk to do something social.

11. Wasted food points.

12. Talked to a cute person.

13. Maintained the cleanliness of your room.

14. Followed through with your fitness plan.

15. Treat Yourself.

So this is for all the times you ate cheetos instead of an apple, napped instead of going to the gym, and lazily lounged around instead of doing anything even slightly productive. You'll undoubtedly feel guilty or bad about yourself when you find yourself with a paper, project, and four readings due the next day, but if you know you have a record of making these kinds of choices, you might as well cherish your procrastination and questionable decisions by pressing play on the next episode of whatever you're watching.

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.”

As frustrating and annoying as it can be, being a girl is really awesome. We are beautiful inside and out. Not a lot of people may see that, but girls have a ton of amazing qualities.

We have unique flirting skills.

Us girls have a significant way to flirt with other people. Even when we say the most random or awkward things, we have a way of making everything sound cute and planned. It’s just a gift; we’re good like that.

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:

If you are like me, you have an interesting personality. Basically, you love to be sassy and snarky, gossip, and act like a total bitch (not really), but deep down, you are actually a very genuinely nice person. The idea of actually hurting someone truly makes you feel bad, and you probably have never actually hurt someone’s feelings because your kindness always shines through, even if you do not want it to. Not sure exactly what I would call this type of personality, but if you identify with it, here are some feelings you can undoubtedly relate to.
