6 Things You've Heard If You Attended Millbrook High School

1. Isn’t Millbrook a private school?

Yes, but not ours. Even though our name sounds rich and fancy, we are still a state public school.

2. Why are all the girls pregnant at your school?

*obnoxious eyeroll*

No. No, we aren’t. Just like any high school, there will be teen pregnancies. More than 98% of the female population will not become pregnant and graduate from Millbrook. Further questions?

3. Why is your only school color blue?

It’s Carolina Blue AND Navy Blue. Two separate colors. And it’s way less tacky than other high school’s colors.

4. Why is your football field so far away from your building?

Do I look like an architect to you? I don’t know. Ask the people who built the school.

5. Why do you guys think you're better than everyone else?

Why do you assume that we think that. Most Millbrook students are very genuine people and are always willing to help. If you ask for help, there is always someone willing to help you out.

6. The only thing you all are good at is music and basketball.

False, our cheerleading team went to States, our football team did incredibly well this year, our track team has dominated year after year and our theatre program is to die for. We are a well-rounded group of kids.

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!

Another day, another Elle Woods comment. Can’t us blondes get through the day without someone harping at us over the typical stereotypes about who we are? I never understood why a person was judged based upon the hair color they were born with, or the hair color they choose to have (unless you dye your hair blue like Kylie Jenner, I’m still trying to understand why that’s a trend). Nevertheless, as it should be assumed, not everyone is the same. Not all blondes like bright colors and Lilly Pulitzer, and not all blondes claim to identify with Marilyn Monroe. I think the best suggestion to give to people before they make such radical claims is to stop judging a book by its cover. Or in this case, stop judging a blonde by her hair color.

15 Things That Happen On Your Birthday

Do you have a small get-together or throw a big bash?

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.
