Weekly Wrap-Up: Winter Break, Baby!
Finally, finals are over! But after too much studying and not enough fun de-stress sessions (breakfast, yoga, sex, the usual), it feels like there’s still too much tension in the air.
Gossip Cheat Sheet: Love is Lost in Hollywood
While we’re all busy staying up until ridiculous hours of the night studying for finals and attempting to get some holiday shopping done at the same time, Hollywood has been… breaking up some of it’s cutest couples? At least it’s reassuring to know that while we’re stressing, celebs are always there to keep us entertained.

Single Girl Society: Don’t Feel Sorry For Yourself Over The Holidays
Of course it would be amazing to magically wake up this Christmas morning in the arms of a Ryan Gosling clone to mimosas for breakfast with a side of the newest Marc Jacobs handbag as the first of many gifts to come. But if your holiday season is shaping up to be anything like mine, the heartwarming scene of breakfast and a boyfriend in bed is not likely this year.
Avoid Being a “Ho, Ho, Ho” This Holiday Season
It’s the most wonderful time of the year— except for the fact that you’re at the top of Santa’s Naughty List. Coal definitely isn’t something you put on your wish list this year but we both know you’ll be getting a lot of it. Luckily it’s not too late to trick Santa into thinking you walk around with a halo on top of your head. Here are some ways to redeem yourself.
Budget Stylista: New Year’s Eve
It feels like yesterday that we woke up, blurred eyed and fuzzed headed, welcoming in 2010. But here we are again, New Year’s Eve. The one night of the year it’s perfectly acceptable to kiss everybody in sight at midnight and drink your body weight in champagne. It’s also the one night of the year when it’s totally fine to wear more sequins that a drag queen.
WTF Friday: This Bison Has a Better Fake Than You
While everyone was getting all up in a tizzy because Miley smoked salvia, this news anchor was busy smoking something much stronger. Or at least we’re assuming she was. Because how else do you tell this absolutely ridiculous story, “man brings his pet bison to the bars”, without at least acknowledging that it’s REALLY WEIRD.
Do We Have the Right to Know a Celebrity’s Sexuality?
Not every celebrity reveals their daily details on the Internet for their fans, and despite society’s obsession with celebrities and my hunger for more, some celebrities still don’t share anything beyond their work in interviews. Earlier this week, interviewers sat down with actor Kevin Spacey to uncover news about his new film, but things quickly heated up when they accused him of lying (by omission) about his sexuality.

Friday Faves: 8 Tried and True Ways to Get Famous Fast
I am sure a little part of all of us wanted to be famous at one point in our lives. A little piece of my heart wants to sing on ‘American Idol,’ design a dress for an Olympian figure skater (kudos, Vera Wang), or get insulted by Kanye West on live television. Whichever way you put it, being famous does not seem that bad…but the getting there is tough.

Enjoy The Journey, Not the Destination, of Dating
I see college women coming to me all the time for answers, secrets, tips and tricks, ANYTHING to get love all figured out. They want me to get into their latest hottie’s mind and tell them exactly what he is thinking to understand why he is or is not calling, texting, treating her right, or downright leaving her not only on the crazy train, but driving it loud and proud.
Fashion Porn: Winter Accessories Get it on
As of next week it’s officially winter. For those of you that have been piling on layers of clothing already, this will come as no surprise. You’ve already been wrapping the scarves around your neck, putting on a hat while praying you don’t get horrendous hat hair and crawling around every morning looking for that second mitten (while wondering aloud why they don’t make those mitten clips for anyone over the age of 6).
The OC – Where Are They Now? [GALLERY]
If you didn’t watch The OC in high school (or middle school…God I’m old), chances are you probably didn’t have any semblance of a social life. Ok, that was harsh. You had one friend- your mom loved you dearly and thought you were terribly special. But within the confines of 9th grade classrooms, you were definitely left out if you didn’t have an opinion on the latest OC plot twist
The Starting Line: A College Education
Candy canes, hot chocolate and crowded libraries, they’re all synonymous with one thing–finals season is in the air (or for some at least, it’s already done with and they’re busy tanning their backsides in Barbados). Between writing papers (ew) and eating so much junk food that Cheetos dust is running through my bloodstream, I’ve had some time to reflect over semester one of my college experience.
