Yes, it's a known fact that girls can be crazy at times, but we should also acknowledge the fact so can boys. We can get crazy by the smallest and biggest things, but one small issue in particular that keeps arising is the divide between couple when their boyfriend is playing Fortnite. This one word can instantly change the mood between a couple. I'll admit us girls are needy and when we aren't getting enough attention cause you're playing a dumb video game breaking down wood and stone and shooting people we might get mad at times... okay maybe a lot of the time. There are times where we probably overreact when you're playing your game, but sometimes our ragging hormones can't help it.

Like I said though, we're not the only ones who can get crazy in the relationship. Guys, it's okay to admit it, we're all human. Guys get mad at us for picking out the chick flick on movie night, or taking forever to get tour nails and toes done because he is being a little needy that day.

I hadn't seen my boyfriend in two and half months and I was only visiting him for five days before we had to wait another two and a half months. His ass thinks that it's okay for him to play Fortnite while I watch instead of us spending quality time together with the time we had he's got another thing coming his way! Wow, was my blood boiling. He will take an hour or longer to reply when I am trying to have a conversation with him is also pretty frustrating at times. That is just not okay! This will sometimes start and argument that will only last for about five minutes.

So, lets compromise. I will try and pick movies that I know we both will like and get my nails done on days that you are busy and don't need a lot of attention. You can play your game or 500 of Fortnite, but when I come to visit you or come to your house to hang out pay attention to me. When we're not together and you're playing, try texting me back faster so we can have a real conversation, learn how to multi-task. We also wouldn't mind learning how to play either, it's good bonding. I love our relationship and don't want a petty argument over a game to come in between it.

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!

Recently I completed my freshman year of college, and boy, what an experience. It was a completely new learning environment and I can't believe how much I learned. In an effort to save time, here are the ten biggest lessons I learned from my first year of college.

1. Everyone is in the same boat

For me, the scariest part of starting school was that I was alone, that I wouldn't be able to make any friends and that I would stick out. Despite being told time and time again that everyone had these same feelings, it didn't really click until the first day when I saw all the other freshman looking as uneasy and uncomfortable as me. Therefore, I cannot stress this enough, everyone is feeling as nervous as you.
