Dear Netflix, Thank You

A thank you letter to the greatest love of my life.

Dear Netflix, Thank You

My Dearest Netflix,

We have been in a relationship for about three years now. I remember when I first started using you free of charge my freshmen year of college, when life was easy. Soon my parents would invest in our relationship and we would keep up this thing we had going monthly. You have been there for my best days and my worst. I owe you the world, yet you ask for nothing in return. That is one of the things I love so much about you. I wish I could thank you for everything you have taught me and for all the times you were there for me, but that would take as long as it would to watch all the seasons of "Grey’s Anatomy." I will try my best to thank you for everything you have done for me over the past couple years.

Thank you for:

  1. Always being there no matter what hour of the day.
  2. No commercials that would interrupt my intimate moments.
  3. Teaching me all medical terms possible. I think I can save a life now.
  4. Being there when I don’t want to do homework.
  5. Providing entertainment on a rainy day.
  6. Being so helpful and asking if I want to watch the next episode.
  7. Teaching me how to cook meth.
  8. Also teaching me that I should not do meth or sell it.
  9. Being adventurous.
  10. Automatically answering for me when I have 15 seconds of uncertainty if I should watch the next episode.
  11. Loving me and my friends.
  12. Being thrilling!
  13. Showing me what prison is like.
  14. Also showing me how to successfully break out of prison.
  15. Being such a cheap date.
  16. Teaching me what to do if zombies ever attacked.
  17. Not asking for anything in return.
  18. Showing me all different kinds of love.
  19. Valuing family and children.
  20. Being romantic.
  21. Providing me friends when my real friends aren’t there.
  22. Showing me what politicians really do.
  23. Teaching me how to get away with murder.
  24. And how to dispose of the body (not that I will never need to).
  25. Allowing multiple people to use one account so I can continue to live off my parents.
  26. Teaching me how to survive if I get lost on an island.
  27. Staying up all night with me.
  28. Being an advocate for saving whales from captivity.
  29. Avoiding people with me.
  30. Showing me the art of making sushi.
  31. Documenting other people’s lives and showing me them.
  32. Listening to knowledge from Ted with me.
  33. Always being down for a wine night.
  34. Being mysterious.
  35. Constantly being up to date.
  36. Teaching me what to do in a scandal.
  37. Making me laugh.
  38. Countless breakfast, lunch, and dinner dates.
  39. Alerting me on all the latest trends.
  40. For all the suggestions.

I look forward to many more memories with you.

Love,

Your Biggest Fan

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.

11 Moments Every College Freshman Has Experienced

Because we made it, and because high school seniors deserve to know what they're getting themselves into

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!

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.
