The Internet Is Absolutely Losing It Over The Way This Little Girl Carried Her Backpack On The First Day Of School
3-year-old Zara started her first day of preschool this week, and when her dad handed her a cute pink backpack to wear, she put it on the only way that made sense to her.
Luckily, her dad filmed the moment and shared it on TikTok, where it has nearly 20 million views.
In the video, Zara can be seen saying, "First day of school!"
And then her dad hands her the backpack. This is where she intently stares at it, seemingly a little confused.
She looks back up at her dad, realizing she knows just what to do.
So now we present you with: 101 Backpack Holding with Zara. Slide the loop over your hand, down your arm...
Don't think about how heavy it is...
And voilà! Backpack holding etiquette for the purse lover:
Her dad can be heard asking, "You're going to hold it like that?" To which Zara simply shrugs and confirms, "Yeah." Easy peasy, now she's ready for her PURSE day of school.
Right away, the jokes came rolling in. Like this popular Euphoria quote:
And people also thought it was very Blair Waldorf or even Elle Woods of her:
However, her dad does need to realize this is NOT Zara's ideal bag...
Someone like Zara deserves a proper one.
Like, I don't know, perhaps a Birkin!
Either way, people loved that the adorable moment showing the pure essence of who Zara is was captured.
BuzzFeed spoke to Kevin, Zara's dad, who said that Zara loves purses and currently has about seven of her own. And she did carry the backpack on her arm until she saw other kids wearing their backpacks on their back and conformed.
All we know is, Zara may have started a trend, so if you see people carrying their backpacks like purses this year, now you'll know why. You can follow more of Zara's content on TikTok.

Goodbye, Carrie Bradshaw: 'Sex and the City' fans react to the bittersweet end of 'And Just Like That...'
After three seasons, the controversial HBO Max spinoff has ended. I couldn't help but wonder … is this really the last time we'll see Carrie Bradshaw? The Sex and the City revival series, And Just Like That…, came to an end last night after three seasons. The controversial reboot, which premiered on HBO Max in 2021, was hardly perfect — and was often criticized by O.G. SATC fans, even as they continued to tune in. Still, bidding adieu to Bradshaw (Sarah Jessica Parker) and her besties, Charlotte York (Kristin Davis) and Miranda Hobbes (Cynthia Nixon), is bittersweet. The AJLT series finale marks the end of our collective witnessing of these enduring female friendships. It really is the end of an era. Again. 'Farewell to And Just Like That. You were a show that should have never been made but I would've watched 20 more seasons of you. Why am I crying?' one fan asked on TikTok, while another declared, 'Was AJLT good? No. Did I cry over the ending? Abso-f****ng-lutely. The end of an era.' One fan mourned on X, 'I know the storylines haven't always been great & some of the additional characters were bizarre, but I'm going to miss the end of my Thursday night Carrie fix, especially after it started getting interesting.' Ahead of Thursday night's finale, much of the fandom was left wondering what would happen to our favorite Manolo Blahnik-loving fashionista. Would Bradshaw, who'd broken up with Aidan Shaw (John Corbett) for the third time, remain single? Or would she open herself up to the possibility of love with her downstairs neighbor, Duncan Reeves (Jonathan Cake)? Writer, director and showrunner of And Just Like That… Michael Patrick King opted for the former: Bradshaw chooses herself. It was an ending — and decision — that King felt was appropriate for a protagonist who's had her fair share of tumultuous romances over the last 27 years. 'The last line: The Woman realized she wasn't alone. She was on her own. That's it,' King recently told Hollywood Reporter. 'That is what I wanted to say as an echo and a callback and a response to the finale of Sex and the City.' Parker, herself, is also proud of where Bradshaw ends up, telling the New York Times in a story published Friday, 'She's wiser. She's much more comfortable with the questions that had been uncomfortable. She had, after the loss of a husband, a sort of nobility that I didn't know she would possess. She carries her years with her, and it doesn't mean that she's cynical or ruined or bitter or angry. She is still spirited and enthusiastic and curious.' King and Parker aren't the only ones happy with where we left Bradshaw — plenty of fans are too. 'Watching a woman constantly kind of like, tow the line between being independent and completely codependent, and like, kind of always needing a man to be OK, has been informative to my experience as a woman, I believe,' a loyal Sex and the City viewer said of Bradshaw on TikTok. 'Carrie ending up on her own, and being happy and being OK. You guys, I'm not kidding… I'm not looking for a man ever again… Carrie Bradshaw made being single OK.' Another fan shared a similarly joyous sentiment on X, writing, 'I'm glad Carrie is on her own. She doesn't need a man to be happy. She's got herself, her friends, her remarkable clothing, her brownstone, and her adorable cat. Sounds like a fabulous life to me.' Earlier this month, Parker shared an emotional tribute to her onscreen alter ego, whom she began portraying in 1998. 'Carrie Bradshaw has dominated my professional heartbeat for 27 years,' Parker wrote on Instagram. 'I think I have loved her most of all. I know others have loved her just as I have. Been frustrated, condemned and rooted for her. The symphony of all those emotions has been the greatest soundtrack and most consequential companion. Therefore the most sentimental and profound gratitude and lifetime of debt. To you all.'

'Skibidi' and 'tradwife': social media words added to Cambridge dictionary
Words popularised by Gen Z and Gen Alpha including "skibidi", "delulu", and "tradwife" are among 6,000 new entries to the online edition of the Cambridge Dictionary over the last year, its publisher said Monday. Cambridge University Press said tradwife, a portmanteau of traditional wife, reflected "a growing, controversial Instagram and TikTok trend that embraces traditional gender roles". The dictionary also took on the challenge of defining skibidi, a word popularised in online memes, as a term which had "different meanings such as cool or bad, or can be used with no real meaning". The gibberish word was spread by a YouTube channel called "Skibidi Toilet" and is associated with the mindless, "brain rot" content found on social media and consumed by Gen Alpha's overwhelmingly digital lifestyle. The dictionary defined delulu, derived from the word delusional, as "believing things that are not real or true, usually because you choose to". As an example, it cited a 2025 speech in parliament where Australian Prime Minister Anthony Albanese used the phrase "delulu with no solulu". "It's not every day you get to see words like skibidi and delulu make their way into the Cambridge Dictionary," said Colin McIntosh, Lexical Programme manager at the Cambridge Dictionary. "We only add words where we think they'll have staying power. Internet culture is changing the English language and the effect is fascinating to observe and capture in the Dictionary." Other new phrases include "lewk", used to describe a unique fashion look and popularised by RuPaul's Drag Race, and "inspo", short for inspiration. Work from home culture has given rise to "mouse jiggler", referring to a way to pretend to work when you are not. There is also "forever chemical", man-made chemicals that stay in the environment for years and have gained traction as concerns grow about the irreversible impact of climate change on the health of humans and the plant. aks/jxb
