Gossip girl here! Your one and only source into the scandalous lives of college students elite - as you all know Thanksgiving is just over the horizon, so buckle up and get ready to see what your break has in store for you. You know you love me. XoXo. Gossip Girl.


No one in the world is more excited for Thanksgiving than a college student, other than maybe, of course, grandparents. The break is a much-needed stress reliever before finals but as the holiday quickly approaches, and as we college students rub our hands together in wait of an actual home cooked meal, we tend to forgot some awkward moments during the family thanksgiving dinner we may encounter. Here are some thoughts your most likely going to think during thanksgiving break and most importantly, who doesn't love a good Gossip Girl flashback?


When you first get back:

1. As it starts, you arrive home from college and your excitement to see your family, friends, and pets kick in.

Who knew hugs could last so long?

2. Never wanting to leave the comfort of your own bed again.

It's too bad we don't have our own Dorota.

3. When you finally get to talk to your mom in person and tell her everything.


Mom, school is stressful. Please let me stay home forever. Thank you.

4. If you have a job to go home to during break, chances are you probably don't want to go back.

This is probably how you feel when dealing with the most annoying customer ever, but do not pull a Nate Archibald, it won't lead you anywhere.


Thanksgiving day:

5. Waking up is much easier today because of the excitement.

You can just smell the food that's already being prepared and automatically get up.

6. Getting dressed plays a pretty important role for Thanksgiving dinner.

Plus, you need to look good to get your thanksgiving selfie a lot of likes on Instagram!

7. Once your family arrives.

Not only do the hugs last long this time, but depending on how big your family is the greeting part of the evening could take ages.

8. When you eye down the food and your family makes jokes on how you must be starved at college.

Is it really that obvious how hungry you are? Probably!

9. That friendly, or maybe not so friendly banter between your family.

It's hard not to eat your mashed potatoes and tune in when things start to get heated.

10. When your parents ask what you want on your plate.

I'll have a little of everything, and don't worry I will be going back for seconds!

11. Once you're stuffed, this is how you'll look:

You're not really done eating until you end up on your couch feeling like you can no longer move. It's tradition.

12. Once you've had your home cooked meal and enough time with your family.


13. Just kidding, you'll probably be sad.

It's back to sucky food and lots of homework, not to mention its almost time for finals.

Well, I guess that's it for now, see you after break. XoXo. Gossip Girl.

1. You don't have to feel guilty about flirting with customers for tips (or just for shits and giggles).

2. You can be obnoxiously flirtatious with anyone you want. You are free to be that girl that flirts with everybody and makes 'em all smile (it's especially fun when the guy is as cute as Collin Jost). No shame.

3. Making random men nervous with your superior beauty and intense eye contact just for the hell of it is really amusing and empowering.

4. No one gives two poops if ya legs are hairy (your man shouldn't either but *Kermit the Frog meme* That's none of my business)

5. The toilet seat will remain down.

6. There's more money to spend on yourself.

7. There's always this secret butterfly in your tummy that marvels at the possibility that when you go out this weekend you're gonna meet someone super handsome/wonderful/prince-like and have this moment of dazzling dalliance.

8. Nothing is that serious...you can take it all with a grain of salt...you don't owe anybody anything.

9. You can dance with anyone and everyone...or no one (Hello frat boi w/ glasses, I see you).

10. You don't have to fluff anyone's ego but your own.

11. Free drinks and dinners from single guys (It's not taking advantage if they're offering; a girl's gotta eat).

12. You have more time to learn how to love and improve yourself rather than constantly pouring your energy into another person.

13. You don't have to sacrifice your cheesy Jen Aniston rom-coms and Gilmore Girls for his Fast and Furious/other dumb action movie featuring blonde that is only in the movie to supply a relationship to the male lead and to make him look more masculine/empowered in juxtaposition (In other words, you don't have to deal with a guy being a crabby Patty while you watch your cute movies).

14. You can daydream about what your future husband may be doing right now (and not get stressed/guilty out because you're not picturing your current boyfriend that's crazy about you as your future husband).

15. There is more time to be spent with your girlfriends.

Girls Night In
Milk + Blush

We've all been there - you've been saying since Tuesday after French that this weekend is the weekend. You're finally going to break out those new heels and actually put on eyeliner on and make this Friday night be one for the memory books! That is, of course, until Girls Night Out turned into...Girls Night In.
