10 Reasons Why I'm Addicted to Gossip Girl
Odyssey Online

1. The steamy romance of Chuck and Blair.

There could not be a more perfect example of this than the love of Chuck and Blair. Their love was everything you could only dream of. Tenacious, passionate, statuesque. It was clear to everyone watching that there was no better match for the two of them, and they managed to work through every detour that was thrown at them. Long live the unbreakable bond of Chlair.

2. Dorota Kishlovsky.

From her comic one-liners, to her entertaining facial expressions, she was hands down the most under-appreciated character on the show. I felt bad for every time Blair treated her so poorly, but I couldn't help but adore the relationship that they shared. Plus, she did make the best points.

3. It was way ahead of its time.

Cecily von Ziegesar is seriously brilliant. A visionary. The first book in the series was written in 2002, and the first episode aired in 2007. Way long before any social media cites existed. It really set the base for Twitter, Yik-Yak, Instagram, etc.

4. S & B's friendship.

No matter how many times they fought, they always found their way back to each other because nobody does BFFs like Serena and Blair.

5. Serena's wardrobe.

Every episode I was filled with envy every time S was on screen. Every outfit fit her to a T and made me want to go on a shopping spree and upgrade everything in my closet.

6. The big cities.

As a travel enthusiast, I absolutely loved every time they ran away in Daddy's private jet to go explore some new city full of strolls down luxurious avenues and fancy restaurants. If only it were that easy for the rest of us!


7. Chuck Bass.

At first, Chuck only showed his despicable, womanizer, heartless side. But, once he started to work through his daddy issues and open up, that icy facade melted away and we got to see the real Chuck who loved so much and cared so deep. There are plenty of other fish in the sea, but there's only one Bass.

8. It pushed boundaries.

This show really tested the limits with the high society parties, teenagers drinking & having sex, the scandalous outfits. All of the sex, scandals, and sneaky little one-liners made this show worth the month of sacrificing a full 8 hour sleep while I binged all six incredible seasons.

9. The silly moments.

I always looked forward to the clever little lines, faces and jokes that would be scattered throughout the episodes. The show was rightfully labeled as a drama, but it had its very fair share of comedic moments!

10. Last, but certainly never least, the drama!

I won't even deny it. I loved every single second of the outrageous scandals and traveling to the Upper East Side and getting caught up in the fictitious lives of the hyper-privileged teens. As Gossip Girl says best, "You know you love me."

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.
