2013! The year we said #blessed constantly, heard Blurred Lines more times than we heard our own names and sat around wondering who thought it was a good idea to remake Carrie.
Woah, 2013 sucked.
But last year also included the best season of Game of Thrones yet, so it wasn’t all bad. Here is a recap of where the warring families are at ahead of season 4.
WARNING: Huge season three spoilers ahead. Like, every good bit that happened in season three. OK Proceed.
TEAM STARK

Should have disappeared with Littlefinger when you had the chance, huh JK JK JK that would have been a terrible idea! The boy she has a crush on is about to marry her sister-in-law and her only friends are her husband’s secret girlfriend and her ex-finance’s new fianc
