Because you deserve it.

Believe me when I say this... I am all for treating yourself. I think that it is just as important to get yourself a gift once in awhile as it is to get others a gift. Hey... you deserve it.

Got a new job? Treat yo self.

Finished finals? Treat yo self.

Survived the week? Treat yo self.

It's easy to put other people's problems/issues ahead of your own well being. It's very easy to put yourself second. It is important to remember to take care of yourself too. I have compiled a list of some things that I think would make great gifts for yourself.

1. Fitbit

There are tons of different types of Fitbits you can choose from, depending on what you want. There are also a variety of different colors to choose from, and some Fitbits allow you to change the bands so that you can match your Fitbit to your outfit. I got a Fitbit last year and I love it! It has helped motivate me to get more active.

2. New Makeup

You know, sometimes you just need a new lipstick or a new eye shadow palette to make yourself feel beautiful. In my mind, there's nothing wrong with that!

3. A New 'Do

I have found that one of the best ways to treat yourself and to feel new and even more fabulous is to go and get your hair done. Whether it be a cut, color, or just styling, getting your hair done can make you feel like a whole new person.

4. A Spa Day

Need I say more? You have worked so hard... you deserve a day to be pampered. And what better place to do that than a spa?

5. Movie Tickets

Find a friend to go see the show with, or go by yourself! Find a movie you're excited about and that you think you will enjoy. Get some candy, snacks, a drink, and enjoy yourself!

Remember, you deserve this. TREAT YO SELF.

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.
