If you are like us, you are a sane pop culture aficionado. This, of course, means you have been counting down the weeks, days, hours, minutes and seconds until September 1st - the premiere of Gossip Girl Season 2. It's been hard to live without our Upper East Side Princesses and Laid Back Brooklynites these last few months. But alas, a dull and drama-free life goes on. Here are a few tips to bring the Gossip back into your life, in preparation for the big day.
1. Pout your lips (unintentially, of course) whenever you speak.
2. Tell your cab driver/subway conductor/carpool parent where to pick you up and when. And make sure they know to provide a slew of hot girls, champagne, and scarves of various color schemes upon your arrival.
3.Casually climb through your neighbor's window. Once inside, head towards the fridge and drink milk from the carton. Browse through the morning paper and when your neighbor finally wakes up, comment on his laziness. Ignore any puzzled looks; after all, you've been friends for years!
4. Dress your dad in head to toe hipster gear (think skinny jeans, thick framed glasses, stubble, Guitar, Converse, anything American Apparel) and then make fun of him for looking like a hipster.
5. Sleep with your boyfriend's best friend. And then sleep with your best friend's boyfriend. Just do it.
6. When an explanation is needed, simply say, "I'm [insert name here]." That should be enough reason to get your way on anything.
7. Go to a midnight showing at the Angelika and feel really, really cool about it.
8. Hit on everyone and everything. And if that doesn't land you the girl of your dreams, put all of your money towards your own private club opening. Who doesn't want the guy casually sipping on Grey Goose?
9. Wear a headband. Or two. Or three.
10.Read this blog and gossip about it. (From your blackberry, obviously.)
XOXO
