Without Valentine's Day Plans?
Em

There are tons of people out there who are planning on spending Valentine’s Day alone. But you don’t have to be one of them. I know you “think” you have no one to hang out with, but I’m pretty sure you’re just not looking in the right places.

There are options hidden in the deep corners of your phone. It’s time to scroll, like, really scroll. We’re going where your dignity has never gone before.

1. Picture this: Your ex-boyfriend, his ex-girlfriend, a coffee shop, and you.

Yeah, your mom thinks it’s strange, your ex-boyfriend thinks it’s strange, but who cares? You’re adults now. Adults get coffee. And ex-boyfriends still hang out with your little brother. Sigh.

2. Give the Tinder Boy a chance.

I mean… I’m sure they’re really nice once you get to know them… right? And I bet they are so sweet to their mommas.

3. Have checked your Facebook Messenger recently?

Maybe it’s time to get back to him. He is persistent. You gotta give him that. Plus, who doesn’t like a boy who thinks you’re beautiful?

4. The Guy Who’s Home from Prison

Yeah, so WHAT?

5. Your best friend’s ex-boyfriend

I know what you’re thinking. “That’s breaking Girl Code!!!!” But she suggested it.


I think these are very viable options. But if you’re too “dignified” for this you can always stay home, open a bottle of wine, eat some chocolate and watch 50 First Dates. If you do decide on one of the options above, you better move fast before they make other plans. Even the fuqboys on Tinder have options.

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.

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.

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!

The college years are a time for personal growth and success. Everyone comes in with expectations about how their life is supposed to turn out and envision the future. We all freak out when things don't go exactly as planned or when our expectations are unmet. As time goes on, we realize that the uncertainty of college is what makes it great. Here are some helpful reminders about life in college.

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.
