5 Struggles of a Semi-Organized Person As Told By Gene Belcher

We're proud, we're messy, but we're organized too!

Bob's Burgers Wiki

Some of us are crazy organized and have our ducks in a row, whereas some are the opposite. Right now we're talking about the people that fall right in the middle, and we're a proud people but certainly have tendencies to fall on one side or another from time to time. Bob's Burgers seems completely unrelated, but that's sort of the point which I'll get to.

1. Sometimes we do things that don't always make sense.

Whether it's multitasking to start out the morning, like attempting to rake a brush through our hair with a toothbrush while trying to brush our teeth with the hair brush, we get it figured out eventually. Give us a second to realize that what we're doing isn't making sense. Although brushing our hair with a toothbrush and teeth with the hair brush is unlikely, I'm sure it's not the first time this type of thing has happened. Bear with us, and we'll get back into taking it one step at a time...eventually.

2. Boy, do we get distracted.

As much as I would love a hot fudge carwash, like hot fudge, food is a huge distraction. Hanger, phone, Netflix, baby animal videos, social media, shiny things, whatever it may be; any one of these things can and normally do keep me from responsibility. Being semi-organized doesn't always mean organizing belongings or spaces, but also maintaining mind organization... occasionally.

3. Speaking of spatial relations, some parts of our lives can remain somewhat immaculate whereas others are a travesty.

If you're anything like me, I try to keep my car as clutter free as possible but my room can look like my closet threw up everywhere. My car isn't immaculate, I mean it could use the healing touch of the vacuum, but sometimes it can be hard to keep some places clean and we make our messes. We're busy, we're kinda messy, but we're proud.

4. Trying to organize our lives can be a struggle and a half.

We have a lot to figure out with school, work, bills, schedules and what not. Sometimes it gets hard for us to decide what we want to do with our lives so we change our minds on how we want to do things, but what we want to do with our lives doesn't always mean career path. One week we may want to try starting meal prepping or working out more, but it'll be a tricky start in some cases. Other times we're mixing up plans, like showing up to a friend's house at 2pm but were actually suppose to help your brother pack for college. Don't worry, we'll figure it out... We got this. Kind of.

5. When we finally do get it figured out, it's bliss and we enjoy it while it lasts.

After a good stress clean, not mixing up plans during a busy week, staying focused on a task, or anything like it; it's a great time for us to relax. During this time, we're also trying with every fiber of our being not to mess it up again which has 50/50 odds most of the time. Either way, we're happy when we're clean and we can be happy when we're messy. It's just a matter of what we're feeling.

8 Things I Realized After My First Semester In College

Actually, Kylie Jenner, 2018 is the year of realizing things.

The first semester of college is famous for being one of the most difficult transitions of one's young adult life. You're thrown into a completely new area where the majority of the people surrounding you are strangers in an academic environment that's much more challenging then what you've grown accustomed to for the past twelve years. On top of that, you probably share a room with another person (or even multiple people) on the lumpiest "mattress" you've ever slept on.

With this change comes a lot of questions: what do I want to major in? What am I passionate about? Is what I'm passionate about something I'm actually good at? Why does the bathroom smell like cranberry juice and vodka? What is that thing at the bottom of the shower drain?

6 Unrealistic Expectations Society Has For Young Adults

Don't let the thesaurus-inspired vocabularies in our résumés fool you. We're actually just big kids.

Well over four feet tall and 100 pounds in weight, many of us "young adults" of the world still consider ourselves children. Big, working, college-attending, beer-drinking children. We may live on our own, know how to cook noodles, and occasionally use a planner, but don't be fooled; the youthful tendencies that reside within us still make their way into our daily lives. From choosing to stay up until 3:00 a.m. playing video games on a school night to going out in 30 degree weather without a coat, we still make decisions that our parents and grandparents would shake their heads at in disappointment. So why are we expected to know exactly how to be a wise, professional, sensible adult? It's not that we're irresponsible (for the most part, anyway). It's that we are young, inexperienced, and still have the sought-after, enthusiastic mentality that we can do and be whatever we want, which has not yet been tarnished by the reality of the world. These are just a few of the unrealistic expectations that society has for young adults.
