"Gossip Girl" concluded on Dec. 17, 2012, after an extremely successful five-year run. Following the "scandalous lives of Manhattan's elite," "Gossip Girl" gave us a handful of inspiring female characters -- among them, Blair Waldorf, the Queen Bee of the Upper East Side. Blair is a loving, sassy, intelligent, driven and loyal young woman. To this day, she inspires young girls around the world. I even find myself thinking, "What would Blair do?"

Someone is lying to you, but you have to wait to call them out.

Someone cancels plans last minute for no good reason.

Someone with no knowledge starts speaking.

You're stuck sitting opposite of your arch-nemesis at the dinner table.

Someone talks about you behind your back...

...and then turns around and gives you a compliment.

They push you too far, yet you have to try and maintain a semblance of self control.

Someone you aren't friends with starts being polite be...

...only because there's a party.

Your drunk friend suggests that you pace yourself.

Karma finally shows up, and you get to watch it bite.

Others acknowledge your superiority.

Your friend says she hates to gossip only after her 20 minute gossip session is finished.

Someone acknowledges your fabulous outfit.

Your friends ditch you when you all go out.

People forget just who you are.

So, people of the Upper East Side, I suggest you become acquainted with the fabulous Ms. Waldorf as soon as possible. What better way to start of the new year?
