Serena Van Der Woodsen vs. Blair Waldorf

Image
Now I'm not usually one to pit girls against one another, but there is one "competition" I am constantly baffled at. The competition is between Blair Waldorf and Serena Van Der Woodsen from epic TV series Gossip Girl. I genuinely don't understand how it's even a competition- how people can even pick Serena  over Blair? Serena totally sucks and is one of the worst kinds of people ever!!! If you don't believe me, have a read of my list and then maybe you'll change your mind... *this post does include spoilers so if you haven't watched GG yet, stop reading NOW!* 1) She took her best friend's soul mates virginity- yes, I mean Nate. Um hello, this is so  wrong. Its one of the first things we learn about Serena and yet people still  choose to love her! And Blair still ends up forgiving her (and the guy too)!!! I don't understand it, what she did was beyond wrong and she should not have gotten off so lightly for it! Especially when, as...

What Gossip Girl taught us

I have had the most boring day- seriously! I worked from 9 am, which meant waking up at 7:30 am (although I may or may not have snoozed my alarm for an additional 40 minutes...) and finished at 6pm, getting home at about 6:15 pm. Luckily my dinner was almost ready, my sister hadn't wrecked our newly tidied bedroom and I felt happy to have a nice relaxing evening of blogging, twitter chats, the MIC party on e4 and Gossip Girl.  Re watching Gossip Girl started on NYE for me after my original plans fell through, and second time around I'm really taking it in more, noticing new things, hints at who GG is and how obvious it all was (how did we not know straight away!)- but I'm also learning "deep" things from the program too. Crazy, right? What I know is that Blair Waldorf is my spirit animal. She works hard, always gets what she wants (although I am definitely not as manipulative or nasty as she is/can be!) and is a total female boss. However, I am also...

10 reasons every girl wishes they were Blair Waldorf

Gossip Girl entered the lives of pre-teens, teens and young adults across the globe way back when in 2007. Our lives became consumed by it and we lusted after the glamorous lifestyles that each of the characters was living. It's safe to say though that most girls were taken in by the one and only Blair Waldorf. Seeming to be living in an absolute dream world, we couldn't help but pine after her clothing collections, envy her opportunities and of course, lust over her main love interest, Chuck Bass. There are so many reasons we loved (or loved to hate???) Blair Waldorf...here is a handful of them! 1) She had a personal slave, who not only acted as her maid but also cared very much about her. We <3 Dorota. 2) She had the best selection of clothing to choose from...The girl could pull off literally any  look! Serious wardrobe envy.  3) Her level of sass was off the scale...always. 4) Even if that meant sometimes she was a bit of a bitch...but she al...
