Countless beach days and summer books have me gazing out to that mysterious ocean so many of us love and wondering why it really would be better to live under the sea. Well, after some logical conclusions, I'm ready to trade in my legs.

1. Shell phones and magic conch shells

Communication just got 1000x more aesthetic.

2. Sea shell bras

3. Or better yet... no bras.

4. Constant mermaid hair

5. You could nap in the bathtub without drowning

6. No need for a summer bod because your curves actually keep you warm

This is just a simple marine mammal fact that I find heart-warming.

7. No legs = No shaving

Having scales never felt so good.

8. You'd be bffs with beluga whales

Look at the precious!

9. AND MANATEES

AKA God's most perfect creature

10. Fresh sushi's probably an everyday thing

The face of someone who knows the sushi is also free.

11. Travel is ridiculously easy

You can literally swim anywhere and you save thousands of dollars on plane tickets!

12. Showers under tropical waterfalls is nbd

13. You can explore the Titanic (and things that have yet to be discovered)

The amount of vintage items you'd find...

14. "Where'd you get that beautiful necklace?" "Oh, a sea witch once stole my voice but it's a souvenir now"

15. Everyone would be hypnotized by your voice

16. Men have to listen when you say no (because you can drown them, obvi)

17. But when you wanted them, it'd be easy.

Because you're a frickin' mermaid?? Who would say no??

18. Everyone would try and take candid photos of you

19. You get to do THIS

There would obviously always be spurts of water accentuating your flowing hair and a perfect rock that jutted out of the ocean for moments like these. Why? Because you're a mermaid.

birthday party

My birthday has never been my favorite holiday. I've found that I'm more excited to celebrate my friends' and family members' birthdays more than my own. I don't like being the center of attention, so I usually celebrate over dinner with a small group of family and friends. This way, I can enjoy myself naturally without feeling like I have to entertain everyone and make sure they are satisfied. In the past when I've had large parties, I was so nervous that people weren't perfectly content that I didn't enjoy myself at my own celebration.

College Informations

Most of us have already started the spring semester, and for those of you who haven't started yet, you suck.

It seems like coming back from winter break wouldn't really be a break all things considered, since we all come back to school and pick up right where we left off. We know exactly what to expect, yet we're unprepared every single time.

I'm serious

There are tons of unisex names that are popular: Taylor, Alex, Bailey, etc. There are also numerous names that are used for both sexes, but they’re not seen as “unisex” yet. People are slowly becoming accustomed to the dual use of these names, but for the most part, in their minds they associate certain names with certain sexes. And that leaves those of us with these names in many awkward situations.
