It's October 3!

Hey, fellow Mean Girls fans! If you're anything like me, you've probably watched the iconic teen comedy "Mean Girls" countless times and have a deep appreciation for all things Plastics-related. And guess what?

It's that time of year again – Mean Girls Day! So, grab your Burn Book and your pink attire because we're diving into why Millennials, like myself, can't get enough of October 3rd.

October 3 has became Mean Girls Official Day all the fans celebrate!

Who can forget about the movie's unforgettable quotes?

"Raise your hand if you have ever been personally victimized by Regina George." If this line didn't make you chuckle, are you even a fan of Mean Girls? The movie is chock-full of unforgettable quotes that have found their way into our everyday conversations. From "On Wednesdays, we wear pink" to "That's so fetch," Mean Girls has given us a treasure trove of witty and sassy lines that continue to bring smiles to our faces.

For many Millennials, Mean Girls was a defining movie of our teenage years. It was the film that perfectly captured the high school experience, complete with cliques, crushes, and cafeteria drama. Watching it today takes us back to those simpler times, and it's a welcome dose of our inner teenage self in our adult lives.

If you're active on social media platforms like TikTok, you've probably noticed that Mean Girls Day has become a full-fledged holiday for us Millennials. We take to the internet to celebrate our love for the movie by creating hilarious skits, sharing our favorite quotes, and creating content centered around the movie. It's a day to connect with others who share our obsession and relive the magic of the movie that's become a timeless classic.

Remember when Cady Heron attempted to infiltrate the Plastics and then thought about creating her own group of friends? Well, I'm sure many of us have daydreamed about forming our own clique with our high school besties. I know I did! I vividly recall trying to convince my friend Terra that we could be the coolest Plastics at our high school Unfortunately, she wasn't as enthusiastic about the idea as I was, but hey, a girl can dream, right?

Beyond the humor and the quotable lines, Mean Girls touched on important themes like the power of female friendships, the toxicity of bullying, and the struggle to fit in. These themes continue to resonate with us as adults, making the movie more than just a hilarious comedy – it's a reflection of our own journeys through adolescence and adulthood.

So, as we celebrate October 3rd once again, let's raise a glass (strawberry lemon drop) to Mean Girls and the enduring impact it's had on our lives. Whether you're donning pink, reenacting your favorite scenes, or simply indulging in a Mean Girls marathon, remember that this movie has brought laughter and nostalgia into our lives for nearly two decades, and it's not going away anytime soon. Happy Mean Girls Day, Millennials!
