It really is a lifestyle.

10 Signs You Belong At The Beach
Danielle Pierce

1. Summer is your favorite season.

This is mainly because it’s the only season where it’s socially acceptable to spend every waking hour at the beach.

2. There is sand in almost every article of clothing you own.

It’s no longer a surprise to you that there are mini sandcastles in your shoes and sweatshirt pockets.

3. You're most comfortable in a swim suit.

Bikinis? Boardshorts? As long as you don’t have actual clothes on, you’re pretty content with life.

4. You own a beach cruiser that you ride to the beach.

What is a mountain bike, anyway? They can’t pedal through sand, which is a no-go for biking to the beach. Plus, you need the beach cruiser to give your friends rides on your handlebars.

5. You treasure your beach chair.

Your beach chair has backpack straps and a cooler pouch. There’s really nothing else you need in life.

6. Your spot is your spot.

Yes, you have a spot. If your friends and family are looking for you, they know exactly which beach block you are on and if you sit to the left or right of the lifeguard chair.

7. You can easily point out those visiting for the day.

Maybe it’s the fact they have on an elaborate “beach” outfit, or have brought a camping chair with them. Either way, you can spot them from a mile away.

8. You take naps on the beach.

You are guilty of waking up in the morning, going to the beach, and falling back asleep in the sun.

9. Salt water makes you happy.

There’s really nothing else like a dip in the ocean on a beautiful beach day.

10. You appreciate the value of a good beach day.

If you spent the day relaxing seaside, you know your day was pretty much perfect!

I think the hardest thing about going away to college is figuring out how to become an adult. Leaving a household where your parents took care of literally everything (thanks, Mom!) and suddenly becoming your own boss is overwhelming. I feel like I'm doing a pretty good job of being a grown-up, but once in awhile I do something that really makes me feel like I'm #adulting. Twenty-somethings know what I'm talking about.

I went to a small high school, like 120-people-in-my-graduating-class small. It definitely had some good and some bad, and if you also went to a small high school, I’m sure you’ll relate to the things that I went through.

1. If something happens, everyone knows about it

Who hooked up with whom at the party? Yeah, heard about that an hour after it happened. You failed a test? Sorry, saw on Twitter last period. Facebook fight or, God forbid, real fight? It was on half the class’ Snapchat story half an hour ago. No matter what you do, someone will know about it.

Chandler Bing

I'm assuming that we've all heard of the hit 90's TV series, Friends, right? Who hasn't? Admittedly, I had pretty low expectations when I first started binge watching the show on Netflix, but I quickly became addicted.

Without a doubt, Chandler Bing is the most relatable character, and there isn't an episode where I don't find myself thinking, Yup, Iam definitely the Chandler of my friend group.

Working with the public can be a job, in and of itself. Some people are just plain rude for no reason. But regardless of how your day is going, always having to be in the best of moods, or at least act like it... right?

1. When a customer wants to return a product, hands you the receipt, where is printed "ALL SALES ARE FINAL" in all caps.

2. Just because you might be having a bad day, and you're in a crappy mood, doesn't make it okay for you to yell at me or be rude to me. I'm a person with feelings, just like you.

3. People refusing to be put on hold when a customer is standing right in front of you. Oh, how I wish I could just hang up on you!
