Gossip Girl: The Doctor (van der Woodsen) Is In
Let’s just reflect. Lily gets cancer, doesn’t tell her husband, runs into the arms of her ex-husband and stays in a hotel with him “getting treatment” for months at a time, all the while lying to her waffle-making house-husband back home.
The Things We’ll Do For A Man….
When it comes to wooing the opposite sex, men have it easy. As far as I know, they approach you and whip out the pick-up line. Sometimes it works, and sometimes it doesn’t. Women on the other hand, play a whole different game. Sometimes it seems as if our entire existence is based on impressing a guy. And it’s exhausting.

Why Are People Using Formspring?
Formspring in its current form has become a place where people can talk sh*t, and do some completely anonymously. Apparently, once you set up a page on there, you can comment on just about anything without ever having to list who you are. Postings range from actual questions (i.e. the original intentions) to vicious and evil comments (“You’re so fat,” “No one likes you,” “Why are you and your friends so ugly?”). Yeah, it’s bad.
Snooki Is My Hero
I want what she’s having. It’s about the only thing that can get me through the next few months until Jersey Shore Season 2 premieres on July 29th.
Wardrobe Wish List: Sailor Button Dress
I am in total freakin’ party mode right now. Not that I blame myself; actually, far from it. Instead I am rewarding myself for delaying Senioritis until the last 3 weeks of the year by downing bottles of wine with the girls on weeknights and stumbling into morning class with barhead and underye circles.
College Q&A: To Take Adderall, Or Not To Take It…
So here’s my question that maybe you can help with…. And don’t judge me for it, please. So finals are coming up and I really need to do well. I sorta slacked for the past couple of weeks and I need these tests to bring my grades up. My friend offered to give me some Adderall to help me with the studying….
5 Celebs Who Should Quit The Twit
Rumor has it John Mayer has threatened to quit oversharing and saying really douchy things via Twitter. Much like the many times my friends promised to never drink again if God let them make it through the night alive, I don’t buy it. But it would be nice. We know John has a few problems thinking before he speaks and his compulsive Tweeting has gotten him in trouble many a time.

Body Blog: For a Healthier Lifestyle, Turn to Your iPhone
As we all surely know, starting a new diet or exercise routine can be an expensive and time consuming endeavor. Gym memberships, personal trainers and private nutritionists have always come with a hefty fee, and women are often too busy to take the steps necessary for achieving weight loss.

The Weekly Ten: Gen-Y Recessionista Tips
This week I was perusing USA Today and stumbled upon an article that struck me as, frankly, a bit terrifying. The article screamed HUGE DEBT, NO SAVINGS in my face, warning all of us in “Gen-Y” (that group of seventeen – twenty-somethings) that we’re the only generation unlikely to out-succeed our parents financially.
The Ten Life Lessons I’ve Learned from ‘The Hills’
It all started in the whimsical land of Laguna Beach, where dreams and drama were born (if dreams included watching Steven juggle between Lauren and Kristen, and drama included which beach party to attend). Then the Laguna locals have moved to bigger boobs and better things, in Hollywood. And now ‘The Hills’ begins it’s 7th and final run on Tuesday. Hold your caps folks, it’s going to be a wild ride!
The Morning After: The Late Night Walk of Shame
One night in the beginning of the semester, my roommates and I decided to drink tequila (read: my clothes would come off). A few hours in, I started to get the itch and texted the last boy I made out with. He was at a party and I was so desperate for some lovin’ that I walked there by myself. When I got there, he was making out with another girl.
Intro to Cooking: Pineapple Chicken
My father is, for better or for worse, your stereotypical Italian-American male when it comes to food. He loves veal, sausage, fish, cheese, butter, and is extremely critical of each meal’s preparation. If food isn’t prepared well, or is poor quality, he’ll make it known. Loudly. So the first time I ever made a meal for him, I knew I had to pull out all the stops, or risk soul-crushing rejection
