A Letter To My Mom
Pintrest

As I thought of what to write to write this week, I knew this is what it had to be. Sometimes in this day and age, we forget to appreciate the woman who has been there with us literally since day one, our mothers.This Mother’s Day, don’t forget to thank your mom for all she does for you and tell her how much you love her.

Amma,

I wanna start off by saying sorry.Sorry for all those times I made you feel like I don’t want to spend time with you and Daddy because “I have work”. Sorry for not cleaning my room or doing any chores when you tell me to. I'm sorry to have ever made you raise your voice at me.I’m sorry that I never understood that you only got upset with me because you love me.Through every one of our silly arguments, I never once stopped loving you, and I know you never stopped loving me. I've realized as I'm growing up that all these disputes were always in my best interest.I’m sorry it took me so long to realize that. I’m sorry for all the times I have lied to you or I rolled my eyes at you.I’m sorry for being upset with you for stupid things or saying “no other mom does this”. I understand now how much I hurt you when I say these things.I wish I could take these hurtful words back but as you say “Words can hurt more than actions and can never be taken back” and so the least I can do is apologize.Sorry for all the millions of things I have said or done that disappointed you.I will try harder and try to make sure that you think of me as someone you are proud to call your daughter.I promise.

Next, there are so many things I would say thank you for.There isn’t enough paper in the world for me to write all the reasons of why I am thankful for you and everything you do.Thank you for always protecting and caring our family.Thank you for showering your unconditional love on me and always forgiving me for doing the dumbest things (AKA almost all the time). I feel your love and kindness daily through your acts of selflessness.Thank you for encouraging me to do my absolute best. You are my biggest supporter and fan. You have always cheered me on and encouraged me to be the best person I can be. Whether it be academics, life choices, or the way I treat others , you have taught me to try my best and be the best version of myself. You have helped me through my times of wanting to give up and quit and I appreciate this more than I could explain.

Above all, I love you. Though I may not express it or say it as often, I really do appreciate everything you do for me.

Happy Mother’s Day!


-Your loving daughter

On the Upper East Side, Blair Waldorf is an icon. She's what every girl aspires to be. She's beautiful, confident, and can handle any obstacle that life throws at her. Sure, she may just be a television character. But for me, she's a role model and theres a lot that can be learned from Queen B.

The Perks of Being a Girl

“I just want you to know that you’re very special… and the only reason I’m telling you is that I don’t know if anyone else ever has.”

As frustrating and annoying as it can be, being a girl is really awesome. We are beautiful inside and out. Not a lot of people may see that, but girls have a ton of amazing qualities.

We have unique flirting skills.

Us girls have a significant way to flirt with other people. Even when we say the most random or awkward things, we have a way of making everything sound cute and planned. It’s just a gift; we’re good like that.

We Heart It

Over the past decade, television has undergone a very crucial transition: the incorporation of female lead characters. Since it's a known fact that girls actually do run the world (Beyonce said so herself), it's time for the leading ladies of the small screen to get some credit. Without these characters, women would still be sitting in the background of our favorite shows. These women are not only trailblazers for female empowerment, but role models for women worldwide. With that, here are 15 of the smartest, sassiest ladies gracing our screens that remind us that women do, indeed, rule:
