21 Life Lessons We Learned From Blair Waldorf

Blair Waldorf, one of the main characters, taught us so much more than where to sit on the steps of the Met. She is an Upper Eastsider who is a high maintenance, striving, brilliant, strong, independent, and confident women who is determined to make something high of herself and doesn't let a thing stand in her way when it comes to getting what she wants. She is everything any woman wants to be. If she isn't already, Blair Waldorf will become your spirit animal. I find myself asking myself every day, "what would Blair Waldorf do?"

I've composed a list of things that I wish upon you, and they're harsh and cruel. These things are things that I wouldn't wish upon my worst of enemies, not even that Starbuck's barista who always screws up my order, not even him. You fall into a whole other category of hate.

What are these things I wish upon you you might ask?
