12 Reasons Work BFFs are the Bees Knees


Let's face it, going to work sucks. You have to wake up, look slightly human, and then deal with people for the vast majority of your day. The only thing that makes going to work tolerable is walking in and seeing that one person that just makes you smile. Yep, you got it, your work bff. Here are a few reasons why this person is more important than most and why you should never let them go

They are the first one to say good morning to you...

Even though it may end with "hoe" or "skank", you know they truly mean it.

...but they understand not to talk to you until AFTER you have consumed at least one cup of coffee.

Honestly though, why do people even talk in the morning? Just stop.

They help the day go by faster...

Or at least they understand how slow time truly does go during the work day.

...and they applaud you for your simple successes.

Even if that means all you did was put on pants.

They give you the "look"....

You know, sometimes people just shouldn't tell stories.

...and they understand your financial struggles because they also have them.

They know what it's like to be living off of spaghettios and mac and cheese.

They tend to say what you are thinking and if they don't say it, they are also thinking it....

Your boss may be on to you two, but it's all good.

..and you frequently say things to each other that other people shouldn't hear because it will more than likely offend them.

Do I mean it when I say I will stab you in the neck? No, but I'm still going to say it anyway.

You have way too many inside jokes for comfort....

Aaaaaand it probably pisses off your coworkers.

..and that keeps you from walking off the job on a daily basis.

And they probably help you keep your job by keeping you from murdering someone, too.

Days that they aren't there don't seem right...

The day goes by very slow and you don't have anyone to talk to and really it's just terrible.

..and at the end of the day, you don't know how you would survive without them.

But why would you even want to anyway?

Cherish those work bffs, everyone. They are truly hard to find.

18 Things I Want To Do Now That I'm 18

I'm technically an adult, so I'm legally required to live a little, right?

1979
Happy Birthday Cake

For the entirety of my high school career, I was always seen as the goody-two-shoes. I never got in trouble with a teacher, I kept stellar grades, and when I wasn't doing extracurricular activities, I was at home studying. Even when I did go out, it was usually with a bunch of fellow band geeks. The night would end before 11:00 PM and the only controversial activity would be a fight based on who unfairly won a round of Apples-to-Apples when someone else clearly had a better card (I promise I'm not still holding a grudge).

Now that I'm officially an adult, I want to pursue some new things. I want to experience life in a way that I never allowed myself to do prior to entering college. These are the years that I'm supposed to embark on a journey of self-discovery, so what better way to do that than to create a bucket list?

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.
