Buzzfeed

If anyone has ever watched "Gossip Girl" you know of Queen B- Blair Waldorf. For those of you haven't, I highly suggest to watch it one or ten different times. Blair Waldorf, one of the main characters, taught us so much more than where to sit on the steps of the Met. She is an Upper Eastsider who is a high maintenance, striving, brilliant, strong, independent, and confident women who is determined to make something high of herself and doesn't let a thing stand in her way when it comes to getting what she wants. She is everything any woman wants to be. If she isn't already, Blair Waldorf will become your spirit animal. I find myself asking myself every day, "what would Blair Waldorf do?"

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.
