Web Spy: When Parents Text
We all know parents aren’t exactly pros when it comes to dealing with new technology. It took my mom two years to learn how to watch a recorded show off the DVR (I’m pretty sure she still doesn’t know how to record anything), and my dad constantly refers to Facebook as “Face-Space”. I’m actually pretty amazed that either of them even knows how to send a text!

11 Things You Shouldn’t Bring With You on Spring Break
Here’s a look at 11 things you should definitely leave at home this Spring Break. Just think, with all the space you’ll be saving in your suitcase you will have room for five more sundresses and those iPod speakers you were debating packing.
8 Under $20: Tribal Jewelry
Along with bold, bright bags and loose-fitting tops, tribal-themed accessories and clothing, particularly Aztec-inspired items, are going to be everywhere this spring. Personally, I’m a big fan of this trend in jewelry – the bright colors and interesting patterns and shapes create bold statement pieces that are as fun to wear as they are to look at.
Stand Up, Speak Out: The College Girl’s Guide to Activism
As college students and young women, we should be aware of what’s going on around us. Sometimes sitting around doesn’t seem good enough, but people often say “I’d get involved, but I don’t know how.” Consider this your friendly college guide to activism so you can get involved:
He Said/She Said: Making it Official
I’m not a crazy person. On the contrary, I like to think that I’m quite level-headed in all aspects of my life. I tend to think things through and really try to understand all perspectives in a situation before I say or do anything. And that’s probably why all of my friends come to me for advice; they trust what I have to say and know I’ll be objective. Of course, there is always an exception to that rule. And of course that exception has to do with guys.
Tuffy Luv Sez: BLARGHDLPCZCXL<NFLEWIRQ!#J$EIWRJ
I am a freshman in college. I have been dating my high school boyfriend for more than a year now. He is everything I ever wanted in a guy and so ideal. He is so nice, patient, and kind. I had even been thinking about marrying him down the road. I could picture us together and I really thought that I loved him.

Justin Bieber(‘s New Haircut) is Kind of a Big Deal
As I sit here typing these words the world of Twitter is having a major meltdown over Justin Bieber’s new haircut. (PopEater has all the details for you right here.) Some fans have stopped following him. Others only love him more.
Gossip Girl: Can’t Get No Satisfaction
Wanna know what happened on this week’s creation of Gossip Girl? Why don’t you look up the word ‘lamesauce’ in the dictionary and get back at me. Didn’t find anything? Well, it’s time to petition Merriam-Webster, because that’s the only word I can think of to describe the disappointment I feel for this show on a weekly basis. A girl can only be distracted with lace blazers and Nate smirks for so long before she totally gives up
Glamour Says The Darndest Things: March Edition
Diane Kruger is a certified, regulation, top-tier hottie. I mean, she is ethereal enough to have been cast as Helen of Troy. She is currently boning and betrothed to wed Joshua Jackson (PACEY!) And she somehow managed to make stilted sexyface look alluring and hot on this month’s cover of Glamour. And I’m absolutely gagging (in the best possible way) over her cover ensemble.

We all know the drill: as soon as the weather turns cold, we start planning the ULTIMATE Spring Break getaway with our gal pals. Every year, you vow to actually make it happen this year. You research all-inclusive resorts on your laptop in class, share cheap airline websites, and maybe even start working on your post-Christmas-cookie holiday bod.

You’re at a house party or a bar… or in line to get into a house party or bar. It doesn’t matter. Wherever you are, you’ve just spotted a very handsome boy and you want to talk to him. You turn to your friends and point him out.
We Can’t WAIT for The Amanda Knox Movie on Lifetime
Lifetime movies, like eating frosting out of the tub with a spoon, are one of those guilty pleasures we all indulge in that only our closet friends know about. However, let’s be real: we all love watching those cheesy movies that our favorite D-list actors star in to revive their long-lost careers. And tonight’s newest addition, ‘Amanda Knox: Murder on Trial in Italy‘ is no exception.
