Hi. You don't know me and I don't know you. However, we are both human and that's probably the only thing we have in common or did. Should I even consider you a human after what you did? You knew there is so much hatred in the world and yet you decided to contribute to it.

You bombed children, parents, grandparents, aunts, and uncles. Countless families lives were lost due to your hatred. Now tell me why? What was the point. I know you wanted to instill fear on the public that's a given. However did you ever think of anyone but yourself? Did you think about the kids who will never return to their families due to what you have done? I think the answer is no.

Now let me tell you something. Let me tell you that I'm not scared. I'm saddened and disgusted by what you have done. If you were trying to send another message consider it ignored because I am full of love and I will stand with my people. You will not phase me.

As for the families I hope you feel their pain, sadness, confusion, and anger for the rest of your life. Even though you're a human you demonstrated that you have no compassion for others. I also hope that Britain shows no mercy as you showed those people.

As for the people who were there, at that concert, I'm sorry. My prayers go out to you. As for the heroes, you are one of the many reasons that the earth has not fallen into darkness. You show love. So thank you.

In the end, for those of you reading, pray for those who lost their lives, hope, and family.

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.

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.

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!

Here are some helpful reminders about life in college.
