20 Things I Will Definitely Need By The Time I’m 24 (That AREN’T A Nanny)

Take notes, Corinne.

Winter break was long.

Like, long enough that I got uncomfortably familiar with daytime television and had depressingly limited interaction with people my own age.

So naturally, I got pretty good at doing lazy-college-kid-on-break things instead. Like not making my bed, having my parents make dinner, etc.

Can’t complain.

But now that I’m back at school, I have to re-train myself to do big girl stuff again.

#NotReady.

Don’t get me wrong, I was elated to get back to school. But after being at home for so long, I couldn’t help but wonder what it would be like to have someone else make my bed and do my laundry and cook my food year-round.

24-year-old Bachelor contestant Corinne Olympios doesn’t have to wonder.

Meet Raquel.

AKA: Corinne’s nanny who “literally does everything” for her (think: cutting her cucumbers into fours) and never allows Corinne to “do big girl stuff” (think: washing spoons, making the bed, etc…).

Because, “It makes her happy!”

Of course it does.

Oh, and this is all thanks to Corinne’s share in her own multi-million dollar business (because Bachelor contestants are normal, just like us).

Which is why when we hear Corinne say things like, “This was the worst day of my life” after Nick was reluctant to lick whipped cream off her bare chest on national television, we couldn’t help but say, “Then you’ve got it good, girl.”

Okay, so I may not actually be 24 yet.

And I also don’t know what it’s like to be a Bachelor contestant. Or own a multi-million dollar business.

But even if I did, I can think of a few things that would be more reasonable for me to own by the time I’m 24 than a nanny who turns my lunch into a geometry puzzle and makes me forget how to use my own utensils.

1. A 1lb bag of Lucky Charms marshmallows

No one likes the other stuff anyway.

2. An emergency inflatable rubber chicken

Only for emergencies.

3. Goosh pants

Are you as ready for Halloween 2k17 as I am?

4. Glow-in-the-dark toilet paper

You can’t tell me there’s a worse experience than getting up in the middle of the night to pee and having to turn the bathroom light on.

5. A Nicolas Cage pillowcase

We could all use a little more Nick Cage in our lives.

6. A yodeling pickle

But mom, it’s only $12 on Amazon. And I have Prime!

7. Handerpants

What’s the point of buying cute underwear if you can’t show it off?

8. Unicorn meat


I refuse to be the one who misses out on the new diet trend.

9. A potty putter


To go along with my glow-in-the-dark TP.

10. An old Asian man wall decal

You're just taking FatHeads to a whole new level...

11. A 3-foot Kramer poster


For all my future home décor needs.

12. 55 gallons of lube

Don’t you think you should at least take me out to dinner first?

13. A levitating tree

For serenity.

14. Pot for pets

#LegalizeMarijuana2k17

15. A pussy magnet

Chill out, you sicko.

16. 1,500 live ladybugs

Yeah, so?

17. Brutally honest coasters

Gotta impress the house guests.

18. Badonkadonk land cruiser

At the ridiculously low price of $20,000!

19. Five $2 bills

Somehow I think paying the low price of $12.99 to be the proud owner of $10 makes me more respectable than having a nanny who "cuts my cucumbers and my, like, vegetable slices for lunch” every day.

Or, if you’re Corinne and you’re 24 and you do have a nanny and a multi-million dollar company, maybe you should consider purchasing this:

20. Nothing.


Because WTF else do you need?

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.

Power of Love Letters

I don't think I say it enough...

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
