Most of us know about the female empowering movie about a blonde sorority girl that decides to go to Harvard Law to get her jerk BF back. Rather than getting back with him, she ends up being top of her class and proving to him that if you set your mind to it, you can achieve anything. And you can do it all while still being true to yourself, pink heels and all.

While Elle Woods is great, the real hero of this movie is in fact David Kidney, the dorky law student who helps Elle. Here are some more reasons why this guy is the best part of Legally Blonde!


He dewormed orphans in Somalia. Even a genius like David has time to help those in need. And he did it over the last 18 months!

He was never mean to Elle. For most of the movie he is quiet as a church mouse, but even as an introvert David doesn't follow the trend and treat Elle with disrespect like Vivian. He even helped her through out the movie, especially at the end when he helped her become Brooke's attorney instead of the sleazy Professor Callahan.

He put himself out there to get a date He didn't try to lie about himself to make him look like a better choice or be smooth for that matter. (Elle did help make it seem like he was a heartbreaker, but can ya blame her? He needed help).

He's really smart, like crazy smart The man has a masters is Russian Literature AND a Ph.D. in Biochemistry. I'm lucky I'll get a B.A. in English, let alone in another language.


He's actually really hot Actor Oz Perkins is one fine specimen! Just look at that steely gaze; it's like he's looking into your soul *swoon*

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
