Hey Upper East Siders, Gossip Girl here.

Spotted on campus - "It girl" and her fabulous friends getting ready for a night out. What will tonight bring? Boys, love, Insta fame? There's only one thing I like better than a night out in my college town and the recap of what went down.

You start the night optimistic and energized. The night is young, the city is new.

First the tedious process of inviting the right combination of friends. Nobody wants a Vanessa.

You have to find the perfect pre-game playlist. And sorry Rufus, top 10 forgotten bands of the 90's didn't make the cut.

Then there is the stress over the right outfit to wear for at least 20 minutes.

Finally the squad has arrived (you and your girls). Selfies for days, filters on filters. And of course the satisfaction of a perfect Instagram caption.

One last makeup and hair check before leaving.

And thankfully the Dorota friend safely gets everyone in order.

As soon as you arrive you run into someone you vaguely know...

Then you try to ignore the one Dan Humphrey of the group that really just can't dance.

But suddenly you hear that "the boy" is coming to the bar.

Oh and of course you see Vanessa. Cue the fake laugh and apologies.

Someone has spotted "the boy" and you attempt to work up your confidence to say hello.

A quick pep talk from your friends and you're ready.

But by that time he's disappeared.

At first you try to play it cool.

But then the feelings hit.

Your best friend swoops in with a hug.

And you beg her not to leave you alone for the rest of the night.

You journey home with a heavy heart in need of the one thing that can fix it all.

And while you contemplate running away or moving cities...

You know you could never leave your city. Or your fabulous friends.

That's all for now Upper East Siders. Until next weekend.

You know you love me.

Xoxo,

Gossip Girl
