To express yourself means to let the world know who you are. It is a way to identify and stand out in a world of similar people everywhere you turn. There are several ways we can express who we are through our daily lives like art, writing, music, langauge and more.

1. Writing

Writing is an easy way to express your feelings, your opinions and even to just write stories that interest you.

2. Singing

No matter how good you are, singing can be fun. You can put your own touch on popular songs. No two people ever sing a song exactly the same, that's what makes your singing voice unique.

3. Painting or Drawing

Artwork is a great way to express what you like. You can create a picture however you want and put your own personal touches on the work.

4. Sports

Play a sport you enjoy. By playing soccer, baseball, tennis or any sport, you can have fun and let the world know who you are.

5. A journal

You can keep a daily journal and write down your feelings. You cannot express yourself until you first know yourself and learn who you are and how you feel.

6. Dancing

Dancing is a fun way to express you. There's so many different styles, so you can chose what you like and jump right in.

7. Join a club

Find a club with others who share your interests. The best way to express yourself is with others. You may find many people who think like or like the same things as you.

8. Decorate your room

Put things in your room that let others know that this is you. Your bedroom can be as unique as you. Put up pictures, decorations or quotes that you enjoy.

9. Your style

Wear clothes that make you feel like you. Create a you trend and find a style that you personally love to wear.

10. Play a musical instrument

Take up a new instrument. Playing music is a great way to express yourself. It helps you to shout to the world who you are. Like dance, there's many different styles and you can find the one you enjoy.

Expressing yourself is a great way to let the world know, "This is me and I am proud to be me!"

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!
