Being A "Basic White Girl" Is Fun
http://data2.whicdn.com

School is starting, the leaves are beginning to change color, and all things basic white girl are running rampant. Most girls try to hide the fact that they are "basic", but I am here to proclaim that I don't care and being a basic white girl is super fun.

It's the end of summer and that means it's Labor Day yet again. And for some reason that means going to the beach and making sure you get as tan as possible before heading back to school. A true basic white girl is going to make sure to capture a picture at the beach to make sure everyone knows she was there. And the picture has to be topped off with an amazingly ridiculous caption like "beach hair, don't care!" and these post are perfectly ok. Taking those pictures with your friends is also a blast. Who cares if you're getting 800 dirty looks from strangers. They aren't having as much fun as you are.

Another fun basic white girl thing, is wearing Ugg boots. First off, they're slippers you can wear outside. Second, up north it gets very cold in the winter and Uggs are a great way to keep your feet warm without having to wear seven pairs of socks. There is no better outfit than an oversized sweater, leggings, and some Uggs. Not only are you comfortable, but you look adorable.

Next is the mother load of all things basic white girl. The thing ever girl waits all year for. Pumpkin. Spice. Lattes. Please do not feel ashamed to get the large cup of Starbucks and post on every social media page you have that you are currently drinking fall in a cup. These bad boys are delicious and no one should be scrutinized for enjoying one.

There are so many jokes revolving around the fact that being a basic white girl is a bad thing or something that should be made fun of. But in reality, being a basic white girl can be really fun and no one should feel bad for enjoying the things they do.

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.

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.
