Things I want to share

I love you. I love you more than life itself. I love you more than I’m sure there is love in the universe. There’s nobody like you. You’re wonderful, perfect and you make me smile no matter what. You are my best friend and my greatest adventure. In a number of infinite universes, I would choose you every time. This is for you. An appreciation for you. We’ve been together quite a while now and I just want you to know exactly how I feel.

I’m not perfect. I’m very far from perfect, but despite my flaws and weaknesses, you still choose to be by my side. You take me for who I am, which is something hardly anyone has ever done for me. You make me feel like I’m on top of the world. You deal with my constant questions, my annoying habits, and my downfalls. You always pick me up when I’m down and there’s just nobody quite like you. I want to thank you for everything you’ve ever done. I want to thank you for loving me, even though I make mistakes, even though I can’t make microwave popcorn, even though I think too much, and even though I get sad often. I just want you to know that your never-ending support is never unappreciated or neglected. I want to thank you for everything.

I love everything about you. I love your messed up hair when I catch you off guard. I love the way you rub your feet together before you fall asleep. I love your laugh and your smile. I love the way you dance and makeup songs all the time. I just want you to know that I love every bit of you. If you think I love you half as much as I know you love me, I know I must be doing something right. I want you to know that I think about you all the time and that I miss you when we’re apart; no matter how short. I appreciate your way of being and who you are. I know for a fact that when I look at you fairy tales exist and every hopelessly romantic fantasy I’ve had about love is true. If love could speak, it uses your body as a vessel.

Darling, I just want you to know that we’re young and we’ve got our whole lives ahead of us, but honestly, I can’t imagine the rest of my life without you in some way. We’ve shared so many adventures, happiness, and life stories to even begin to forget. There is nothing I’ve ever seen that can take my breath away like you manage to. I’ve only seen the ocean once, but the vastness of it all does not compare to how you make me feel. I am absolutely crazy about you and I can’t wait to make more memories together.

Growing up is hard and maturing can be difficult, but in spite of it all, there’s nobody else I’d rather have by my side than you. You are perfectly wonderful in a world of imperfections, and why you continue to choose me I have no idea. I just need you to know that I will care for you always. It takes a lot to make love work, and I am so humbly aware of your strength and courage. Even in the little fights and misunderstandings, nothing makes me feel like you and me, that’s important to remember. In a world where heartbreak is rampant and times are tough, I am glad that our paths have crossed. I love you. Please don’t ever forget that.

Chandler Bing

I'm assuming that we've all heard of the hit 90's TV series, Friends, right? Who hasn't? Admittedly, I had pretty low expectations when I first started binge watching the show on Netflix, but I quickly became addicted.

Without a doubt, Chandler Bing is the most relatable character, and there isn't an episode where I don't find myself thinking, Yup, Iam definitely the Chandler of my friend group.

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.
