1. Timing Is Everything

You find Mr.Right but the timings wrong so you think you don't belong together! It may just be down to timing. He might need space, you might want to travel but in the end if it's meant to be it's meant to be.

2. Real Friendships Are Never Perfect

Serena and Blair have had a fair share of ups and downs! Granted theirs were a bit extreme but it thought us that no relationship is perfect. You'll fight, you'll make up but in the end true friends will always be by your side during good times and bad times.

3. Always Hold Your Head High

No matter what you're going through in life or no matter or bad a situation seems, it's important to hold your head high. The storm will pass and people will forgive and even sometimes forget! Life is too short for regrets as long as you learn from your mistakes.

4. Family Is Everything

When it seems like the whole world is turning their backs on you, family will always be there...even if you don't deserve them at times.

5. Being Popular Doesn't Mean Anything

When you're in school and you're not the popular one life seems really unfair. But what you don't realise is when school's over so is being popular. You have a new start in life and you make friends who like you for you, not who you hang around.

6. People Change

You can drift apart from someone and still care about them! It's about growing up but sometimes we don't always grow in the same direction.

7. The Bow ALWAYS Goes To The Right

Just in case you were ever in doubt. No need to thank us for saved you from public mortification!

8. The Death Stare

It's important to perfect the death stare! Especially when you're out in public and can't voice your disapproval with your other half or family member.
