This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at WVU chapter.

Thirteen years ago, one of the best and most inspiring TV shows ended.  Instead of crying over the end of Sex and the City (we were really young anyways), let’s take a moment to appreciate everything the original girl gang taught us.

1. How to be “single and fabulous”

2. That being a woman is okay (in fact you should be proud of who you are)

3. Men might not always be there for you, but your girls will be

4. You and your friends might have different views but it’s okay because you all bring something to the table

5. Sometimes you have to buy the shoes.

6. Wear whatever you want.

7. Everything you’ve ever needed to know about relationships

8. It’s okay to fall down

9. But you have to get back up

10. That there’s never a reason to lose hope
