The characters of Gossip Girl explain why achieving your goal of having the perfect "Spring Break Bod" isn't as easy as doing crunches and staying away from sweets.

It’s that time of the year again, and everyone knows what I’m talking about. It’s time to tone down the candies and sweets and tone up our bodies for Spring Break.

There's something about warm weather and a beach that gives girls the extra motivation they need to try and look like Candace Swanepoel in just a few short weeks.

Just when you thought people were slowly giving up on their New Year's Resolutions of being fit and healthy, SB sneaks up on everyone and the countdown to rock hard abs begins.

But, let's be real here. It’s not as easy as it looks. There are many phases and stages you go through to obtain your “Spring Break Bod” and Gossip Girl knows exactly what they are.

You say you’re going to give up on alcohol to cut down the calories, but you always end up drinking.

You talk about how great your body is going to look in your new bikini... while you’re eating a bowl of ice-cream.

Your friends don’t stop you from ordering the biggest meal on the menu when you’re supposed to be dieting.

You try to tell yourself pizza tastes gross so you won’t get any cravings, but deep down inside you know how much you like it.

You said you were going to the gym today, but all of the sudden have more important things to do.

When you still haven’t worked off the Freshman 15 and your friends tell you that losing that much weight before SB is impossible.

What your friend says when you tell them you had to stop running on the treadmill mid-workout because your legs felt like Jell-O.

After days of eating healthy, you turn into some kind of sugar-deprived monster.

When you finally realize you can’t go another day eating a salad for every meal.

You realize you miss your old eating habits and aren’t afraid to hide it anymore.

And what's the first thing you'll do when you finally make it to your Spring Break destination? Order pizza.

Will you go through these same things as you prepare for Spring Break this year? We’ll find out soon.

XOXO.

A three-and-a-half-hour runtime. Nine Eras. Eleven outfit changes. Three surprise songs. Zero breaks. One unforgettable evening. In the past century, no other performer has put on an electric performance quite like Taylor Swift, surpassing her fans ‘wildest dreams’. It is the reason supporters keep coming back to her shows each year. Days later, I’m still in awe of the spectacle ‘Miss Americana’ puts on every few days in a new city. And, like one of Taylor’s exes, has me smiling as I reminisce about the memories of the night we spent together.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
