You accept who you are and are proud of it. You accept your flaws and see them as a part of what makes you, you, just like B.

You treat yourself when you feel that you deserve it. Shopping truly is the best therapy, regardless if it is logical or not.You are not afraid to splurge on yourself every once in a while to reward yourself for your hard work.

You have Learned how to control your emotions, what your feeling and when it is appropriate to have a meltdown and when it is not.

But, You also recognize your feelings and when you need to let them all out.

You are not afraid to toot your own horn in interviews and when building connections. Nobody is going to do it for you, and if you want to be the best and get to the top, you have got to prove that you are!

You fight for what you want and don't see failure as an option. Blair Waldorf held herself to the highest standards and knew what she was capable of, and you should too.

You don't let anyone treat you like you are less than amazing, and you are not afraid to let them know if you do not like the way you are being treated.

You always have confidence in yourself and walk around with your head high, like there's a tiara on your head.

Literally...

You realize you are the creator of your own life and nobody can change that.

You date someone who is committed to you and never stops showing you that they care about you. You have meaningful relationships, and nothing less.

You realize that not everyone is going to like you or be on your side and this says less about you and more about them.



These people are irrelevant, and rather than try to gain their approval you simply ignore them and keep on being you.

Sorry, Serena, everyone does want to be Blair Waldorf.

18 Things I Want To Do Now That I'm 18

I'm technically an adult, so I'm legally required to live a little, right?

Happy Birthday Cake

For the entirety of my high school career, I was always seen as the goody-two-shoes. I never got in trouble with a teacher, I kept stellar grades, and when I wasn't doing extracurricular activities, I was at home studying. Even when I did go out, it was usually with a bunch of fellow band geeks. The night would end before 11:00 PM and the only controversial activity would be a fight based on who unfairly won a round of Apples-to-Apples when someone else clearly had a better card (I promise I'm not still holding a grudge).

Now that I'm officially an adult, I want to pursue some new things. I want to experience life in a way that I never allowed myself to do prior to entering college. These are the years that I'm supposed to embark on a journey of self-discovery, so what better way to do that than to create a bucket list?

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.
