College Life as Told by Blair Waldorf

Has anyone every realized that Gossip Girl perfectly describes Greek life and college? Blair Waldorf is, basically, the ultimate Greek woman. She is independent, strong, loving and very proud of who she is. The only difference is that she often says the things we wish we had the nerve to say. In case you haven't watched the series through four complete times, here are some of my favorite Blair moments.

Remember that day when people were telling you that they saw that eye roll you made during chapter? Or, that you were really rude when you didn't reply to whomever's text within 20 minutes, yesterday?

You come home from a Saturday afternoon of shopping downtown with your sisters and you only feel one emotion.

You try to explain why you are majoring in textiles and apparel management, or something along those lines, and you wish you would have come up with this masterpiece of a line.

You have studied and practiced really hard for something and you succeed -- and people tell you not to be cocky about it but all you are feeling is...

There is that moment when you realize that a formal date just is not going to happen this year.

Because you would rather go stag then take someone who doesn't appreciate you.

Why is it so hard to find a decent guy? I mean we aren't asking for the world.

Our expectations in life are high. And not just with boys.

Yet, at the end of the day, Blair knew the real meaning of friendship and sisterhood. She might have been feisty, but she was a true friend. She was the friend we all want and want to be.

Thanks, girl, for showing us that we aren't the only ones with these crazy thoughts. Oh, yeah, and thanks for being one of the best fictional characters there ever was. We all wish you could have been in our chapter.

XOXO

In honor of Mother’s Day, I have been thinking of all the things my mom does for my family and me. Although I couldn’t write nearly all of them, here are a few things that moms do for us.

They find that shirt that’s right in front of you, but just you can’t seem to find.

Take the time to thank that one friend in your life you will never let go of.

Thank You on wooden blocks

1. Thank you for being the one I can always count on to be honest.

A true friend will tell you if the shirt is ugly, or at least ask to borrow it and "accidentally" burn it.

2. Thank you for accepting me for who I am.

A best friend will love you regardless of the stale french fries you left on the floor of your car, or when you had lice in 8th grade and no one wanted to talk to you.

Do as I say, not as I do.

Your eyes widen in horror as you stare at your phone. Beads of sweat begin to saturate your palm as your fingers tremble in fear. The illuminated screen reads, "Missed Call: Mom."

Growing up with strict parents, you learn that a few things go unsaid. Manners are everything. Never talk back. Do as you're told without question. Most importantly, you develop a system and catch on to these quirks that strict parents have so that you can play their game and do what you want.

"Friends" maybe didn’t have everything right or realistic all the time, but they did have enough episodes to create countless reaction GIFs and enough awesomeness to create, well, the legacy they did. Something else that is timeless, a little rough, but memorable? Living away from the comforts of home. Whether you have an apartment, a dorm, your first house, or some sort of residence that is not the house you grew up in, I’m sure you can relate to most of these!
