It was my education, my social life, my hardwork, my late nights and early mornings, my teacher,\u201d she wrote, reflecting on the formative experience. She added, \u201cNew York City and Silvercup Studios (& sometimes Paris) was my campus for SIX years.\u201d<\/p>\n The photo collection includes candid moments of Lively with her co-stars Leighton Meester, Penn Badgley, Ed Westwick, Chace Crawford, and the late Michelle Trachtenberg.
