7 Reasons Why You Wish Alfred Pennyworth Was Your Friend.

Maybe this phrase was left in the "Bring it On" era, but Alfred Pennyworth is the bomb diggity. He's the perfect sidekick, no doubt. If someone asked, would you rather be Bateman or Alfred, it would be a little tough. First answer? Can I be both? Bateman is obviously great but Alfred, well, he's the underdog kind of greatness.


1. .

He doesn't take satisfaction in being right, even when it meant it hurt someone close to him. He doesn't brag about being right, he stays pretty humble about it.


2.

His kind of sarcastic humor is actually great. And honestly, his accent makes it so much better. Shoutout to Alfred for making you laugh in a not exactly humorous situation.


3.

Ever have an idea that seems to be a little bit passed the crazy end? And once you tell someone, you think, so that person may think I'm not OK. But, then there's Alfred, who would definitely understand. After all, he stayed calm and understanding after Bruce came up with Bateman.


4.

Alfred. That one person who'll always be there, no matter what.


5. .

Ever feel like once you fall down, you can't stand back up? Leave it to Alfred to be the source of wisdom. He's always there, not necessarily giving Bateman a hand, but always giving him the strength to be able to pick himself up.


6.

What a heart-wrenching moment. Nevertheless, how much Alfred cares about Bateman is admirable.


7.

When Bateman wasn't there and it was young Bruce Wayne, Alfred came in as the trusting hero, saving Bruce from fights most likely to cause serious damage to him. #AlfredIsEdgy.


If Bateman isn't your favorite hero, I'd watch it anyway. Because Alfred is the hero that's always there. #PinkyPromise.

11 Things Summer Nannies Can Relate To

As a college student, being a nanny over the summer is both enjoyable and challenging. Underneath the seemingly perfect trips to the pool or countless hours spent playing Monopoly are the obstacles that only nannies will understand. Trading in your valuable summer vacation in return for three months spent with a few children less than half your age may seem unappealing, but so many moments make it rewarding. For my fellow summer nannies out there, I know you can relate.

If it hurts now, it'll hurt again. Not because you're gullible or naive, only because you fall fast, hard, and you do it every time.

We fall each and every time with the complete and utter confidence that someone will be there to catch us. Now that person we SWORE we were never going to fall for has our hearts, and every time we see them our palms start sweating. The butterflies in our stomach start to soar and our hearts are entirely too close to bursting out of our chests.

Growing up I have always wanted to own a horse. My grandparents own a well known equestrian facility in Georgia, so I have been riding since I was born.

College is super hard. Between working, studying, and having a social life, it feels like a struggle to just keep afloat.

I understand. When you feel like your drowning and there's no way to stay afloat I understand that it feels like everyone else is doing just fine. I understand all the frustration, long nights in the library, and that feeling that you want to just throw in the towel. I understand that sometimes it's too hard to get out of bed because your brain is already filled with too much information to remember. I understand because I am also feeling pretty burnt out.

Some of the best advice I've ever received was from my social studies teacher in sophomore year of high school. He stated, "If you don't know it at midnight, you're not going to know it for the 8 a.m. exam, so get some sleep."

It's such a simple piece of advice, but it holds so much accuracy and it's something that the majority of college students need to hear and listen to. "All-nighters" are a commonality on college campuses in order to cram in studying for an exam that is typically the next day.
