Hey, Upper East Siders! "Gossip Girl" here. Your one and only source in the scandalous lives of Manhattan's elite. Top story on my homepage: Serena van der Woodsen. Everybody's favorite It-Girl has just returned from a mysterious absence and was learning the hard way that you can never go home again.

Gossip Girl lets us see amazing fashion, crazy relationships, beautiful hair, and wild secrets. I'm sure we can all relate even if we don't own Jimmy Choo's and Chanel. Here are 11 life lessons "Gossip Girl" teaches us.

1. Your friends will probably date your ex's and it'll probably be insanely awkward.

Ugh, do you guys remember when Blair dated Dan?! YUCK! It just wasn't right!

2. Family isn't always blood.

3. Just be you!

Remember when Little J went mad and stole the Valentino? Watching little J hang on by the threads of her knock off coat was exhausting. Jenny taught us it's so important to not pretend to be someone else. You can't fit in where you don't belong. Be your own you!

4. One day, you will find your Chuck Bass. (maybe)

5. It's okay to eat everything!

6. You have to ditch the toxic people.

7. Losing your v-card might not always be romantic.. sometimes it's even better. It's in the back of Chuck Bass' limo.

8. NEVER forget your worth.

9. If people challenge you, let them know who's boss.

10. Don't let anyone penalize you for who you use to be.

10. DON'T TRUST ANYONE.

And just because I’ve seen it all, doesn’t mean I’ve seen everything. And I gotta say, no one saw this one coming. You may think my best days are behind me, but this old girl still has some new tricks. Stay tuned.

XOXO. –Gossip Girl.

The Daily Struggles of Being a College Commuter

morethanwheels

I've been in college for four years now. I spent half my time as a commuter and half as a resident so I've experienced both sides of the housing spectrum. One thing I've learned comparing the two is that my struggles as a commuter far outweigh anything I went through while living on campus. Commuters have to deal with the problems school brings along with a slew of other issues; I've filled up my gas tank in the worst kind of weather conditions and napped in random places in public more times than I'm proud to say of. This is a list of some of the most challenging aspects of being a commuter.
