16 Reasons to Get to the Gym

The gym. The most necessary evil out there. If you have issues mustering up the motivation to get off your rear and go to the gym I strongly suggest you take a gander at this list. If you don't , well good for you but you should check it out anyways.  

1. You just got those super cute sneaks and some one HAS to see them.

2. Tobi… true to size if you layer various Spanx products underneath.

3. It still counts if you just go to stretch, "A" for effort.

4. Two words. Formal dress.

5. Two more words. Cheap beer.

6. Proactively justifying the doughnut you have had your sights set on all day.

7. Actually just making room for a greasy expansion in general.

8. Bonus: those super cute sneaks probably won’t smell as pretty as they look after a good sweat. Pick your target and hide those stinky  suckers under their bed. Revenge is a dish best served smelly.

9. Your mother is coming for a visit in the near future.

10. Elastic waistbands should be a choice luxury not a daily necessity.

11. Resourceful outfit options. You can’t raid your roommate’s closet if you aren’t at least a similar size.

12. The diet taco bell "Fresco" menu just doesn’t do it for you.

13. You know the exact times that kid you gently stalk in your bio class goes to workout. 

14. Chasing down the ice cream truck does not actually count as cardio, as much as we wish it did. 

15. Your dog is in better shape than you.

16. You have an excuse to dress in norts and comfort colors all day after.

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!
