The 4 Things Every Adult Wishes They Could Ask Santa For

Dear Santa,

What's going on man? Mrs. Clause feeding you well? Keeping you jolly *wink wink*? How about those elves of yours? They holding down the fort?

Look Santa we need to talk. I know I am 25 years old and should be asking for anything but HELP A SISTER OUT! I have tried my best to be nice but you know people like to test my patience, but I PROMISE I tried. There are just a few things on my list I need you to consider.

1) Money.

If you can please dig deep down in a red sack of your last and find a money tree that would be great. Preferably one with nothing but 100's on it would be appreciated. Being an adult is expensive and I ain't got time for all that.

2) Time.

We need to talk about is whole 24 hours in a day thing. After working and sleeping there is no time to get anything done. Apparently, as an adult, you have to like keep your house clean and do dishes and wear clean clothes. Who would have thought?

3) Patience.

Mine have gone out the window as an adult and I'm going to smack a bitch if I don't find some more. I'll take that wrapped nicely in my stocking, please.

4) Friends.

I guess the older you get, the less you want to deal with people's nonsense which then results in not wanting to be around people and then your best friend becomes Netflix & a bottle of wine. People are just annoying and you end up hating them but I swear I am a really cool friend! I really just want a bigger phone book on my phone to be honest.

Look Santa, I know you are the big man up at the pole so you have a lot of say when it comes to the holidays, so if you could please hook a girl up that would be fabulous. I don't want much, just the practical things in life ya know?

I can't wait to wake up Christmas morning. Ya da man St. Nick!

Sincerely,

A desperate 25-year-old

To The Girls With "Daddy Issues," You Are Worthy Of The Love He Never Gave You

You are not alone.

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.

Why Blair Waldorf Is The Realest Bitch To Ever Live

XOXO, Gossip Girl.

"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.

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!

Here are some helpful reminders about life in college.
