This one is kind of ironic, but not really. Men are going to have to step up and try to win a girl over if they cannot actually *see* them in person. No more booty calls for this generation!

8. The Library

We love a classic study date. Isn't it lowkey cute to study together? No?

9. The Republic Steakhouse

See on Instagram

If you're trying to switch it up a little bit, the Republic is a romantic spot to share delicious steak, whiskey, or wine!

Check out the menu here!

10. The Village

See on Instagram

This is probably my personal favorite, simply because it is so VERSATILE. The Village is a coffee house, brunch restaurant, and salsa dancing house! They also serve wine and beer. Basically, The Village is the perfect date spot because it is there for any of your needs! #villagecafebryan

11. The Century Tree

See on Instagram

If you've tried ALL of these date spots and you're ready to tie the knot, the Century Tree is your final destination. Eat, drink, and be married!

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.

Michigan State University

"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.

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.

The college years are a time for personal growth and success. Everyone comes in with expectations about how their life is supposed to turn out and envision the future. We all freak out when things don't go exactly as planned or when our expectations are unmet. As time goes on, we realize that the uncertainty of college is what makes it great. Here are some helpful reminders about life in college.
