Is the lifeguard looking?

12 Thoughts Everyone Has At the Beach
Rebloggy

On sunny beach days, there are common thoughts that connect all of us when we’re tanning on the same strip of sand or laughing (seemingly) carefree in the ocean because we’re (totally) not thinking about sharks. Is every crevice of you covered in sand? Have you been fantasizing about that cute lifeguard? We’ve been there. We’ve all been there. And here’s some more things we’ve all thought about while fashionably clad in swimsuits.

1. Do I have to take my clothes off....it seems like....EVERYONE IS WATCHING.

It's like an awkward strip show to get into your bathing suit because OBVIOUSLY everyone isn't looking at the ocean scenery when you're blessing them with your beauty. #duh #logic

2. Debating on fake drowning so the hot lifeguard will rescue you.

He'll never have to know, right? The things we do for love...

3. If I swim out past these waves a shark will surely eat me.

It's just waiting for us to feel comfortable before it strikes. How RUDE. How INCONSIDERATE. Doesn't it know you're trying to get in touch with nature right now? To be one with the ocean?? It doesn't matter how many other people there are swimming and how crowded the beach is, sharks are clearly fearless and masterminds at navigating crowds to specifically target YOU. #WhyYouSoObsessedWithMe

4. I TOUCHED SOMETHING IN THE WATER OMG I JUST FREAKIN TOUCHED SOMETHING!!?!!

This is it. This was how you'd go. It was slimy. The water is dark. Yes you see those tiny little green strands floating around the water, but if anyone asks it was a killer eel. There was obviously a sea monster waiting to grab you that was, again, OBVIOUSLY not seaweed.

5. When you tannin' and look down to check out how bomb you look:

Clearly, you lookin' bomb af.

6. You: I definitely put on enough sunscreen.

Sun:

But why though.

7. Sand is in places it should never be, you're in uncharted territory now.

A WHOLE NEW WORLD. ALL NEW SENSATIONS. DEFINITE CHAFFING OCCURRING.

8. Are those girls taking bikini booty photos...Yes. Yes they are.

Judgement....so hard....to withhold....

9. But for real, how many people have peed in this water.

And like think of how many animals do the do here....and the amount of dead bodies that are in the ocean right now....that you could possibly be......touching.....

10. This is a total rip-off, where are the dolphins.

I didn't pay for this. Actually, I didn't pay for anything.

11. King Triton, can you hear me?

*aggressively sings the Ariel theme song* I'm down to be a mermaid, just so we're clear. Can the dolphins pick me up? I'll just be waiting here. On this rock.

12. Wow the waves are so calm today. Is this all you got mother nature?

*thunder clouds swirl in the sky* *triggers tsunami*

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.
