2016 Trends That Are Not Making The Cut To 2017

1. Juju on that… NO

This song by Zay Hilfigerrr has taken over social media and is the go to for all parties, but many are tired of the repeating lyrics and this is exactly why this song does not make the cut to 2017.

2. Water Bottle Flip Challenge

This challenge proves that anything can go viral, no matter how ridiculous. There are better ways to waste your time rather than flipping bottles, come on America.

3. The Mannequin Challenge

From sports teams to celebrities this challenge only needed one weekend to be remembered and to make everyone trying their best, throwback to the Harlem Shake, am I right?

4. Kanye West’s attitude

Bless his heart, from his rants on stage to needing to be hospitalized for “exhaustion”. I wish I was wealthy enough to check in to a hospital to take a nap. Maybe one day I could be on Kanye’s level.

5. Celebrities ditching Instagram

From Kendall Jenner to The Biebs, celebrities are calling it quits on Instagram and honestly this trend needs to stop. Like now. I am not kidding.

6. Taylor Swift’s drama

All the men, all the music, all the money I think Taylor Swift needs to take the whole year of 2017 to fly under the radar. She already makes more money that me and my super hot millionaire husband will ever make, so just chill Taylor and if you feel the need to date, date a middle class normal human.

7. Anything pertaining to the 2016 Election

Trump won, get over it. And also Trump supporters need to quit with “build that wall”.

8. Yeti Butts

No one wants to see that. We get it you have a yeti cooler and you have friends of the female gender, but there is zero reason to combine the two with a girl sitting on your cooler in close to nothing. If I spent that much on a cooler, oh wait no I would not spend that much on a cooler.

9. Contouring

Who has time for this? We are all beautiful without makeup and I understand how many feel the need to pound on the powder but less is more.

10. Over-editing photos

Everyone can tell when your skin looks airbrushed or if the background is bent at an odd angle that you edited your photo and this needs to stop, no one wants to be THAT girl that everyone bashes at wine Wednesdays.

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

Panicking and pulling all-nighters will not allow you to get an A.

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.

To The Girls With "Daddy Issues," You Are Worthy Of The Love He Never Gave You

You are not alone.

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.

Why Blair Waldorf Is The Realest Bitch To Ever Live

XOXO, Gossip Girl.

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.

Awkward Icarly GIFfrom Awkward GIFs

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!
