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.

11 Things Summer Nannies Can Relate To

There are plenty of obstacles that come when taking care of kids, but it's a very rewarding experience.

As a college student, being a nanny over the summer is both enjoyable and challenging. Underneath the seemingly perfect trips to the pool or countless hours spent playing Monopoly are the obstacles that only nannies will understand. Trading in your valuable summer vacation in return for three months spent with a few children less than half your age may seem unappealing, but so many moments make it rewarding. For my fellow summer nannies out there, I know you can relate.

There are a lot of really easy, common names in the U.S. and while many of those simple names have different spellings, most of the time, pronunciation is not an issue that those people need to worry about. However, others are not as fortunate and often times give up on corrections after a while. We usually give an A+ for effort. So, as you could probably imagine, there are a few struggles with having a name that isn’t technically English. Here are just a few…

Daydreaming

day·dream (ˈdāˌdrēm/): a series of pleasant thoughts that distract one's attention from the present.

Daydreams, the savior of our life in class. Every type of student in the classroom does it at least once, but most cases it is an everyday event, especially in that boring class -- you know the one. But what are we thinking while we are daydreaming?

Puerto Ricans. They are very proud people and whether they were born on the island or born in the United States by Puerto Rican parent(s). It gets even better when they meet another fellow Puerto Rican or Latino in general. You’ll know quickly if they are Puerto Rican whether the flag is printed somewhere on their person or whether they tell you or whether the famous phrase “wepa!” is said.

If it hurts now, it'll hurt again. Not because you're gullible or naive, only because you fall fast, hard, and you do it every time.

We fall each and every time with the complete and utter confidence that someone will be there to catch us. Now that person we SWORE we were never going to fall for has our hearts, and every time we see them our palms start sweating. The butterflies in our stomach start to soar and our hearts are entirely too close to bursting out of our chests.
