Playing With Barbies Beats Paying Bills. Can I be 6, Again?

When you think back to kindergarten, you remember hating nap time, loving recess and thinking that all boys have cooties. Now you're in college... Internships and paying bills are on your mind as well as becoming a responsible adult. Amidst of all the grown up work, you are just wishing that you could go back to the time when the biggest struggle was getting a grass stain on your new Children's Place jeans.

Can you believe you hated nap time? I mean HATED nap time. Your dislike for napping was like being a Colts fan looking at the Patriots. You wanted to go and play with your bff's on the pimped out playground your school just got. Think to now.

Why couldn't it be as easy as walking outside of your class to climb on the monkey bars or play tag to prove you're the best on the grounds? The simpler times were so amazing and we didn't even know it.

Boys having cooties made life also very simple... I think you can understand why. Less drama, more happiness. The gentleman on our campus can cause some major strife in some girls lives. So, I’m just going to leave it at that.

With summer coming up, many are thinking about the summer internships they wish to receive to further their career. It’s all about thinking about our future now than trying to get the best tan possible. So while there may be some perks of growing up, I think I speak for many when college students wish they could go back to being little kindergartners wondering about life. Because let’s face it…

When it comes to television, there’s very few sets of on-screen siblings that a lot of us can relate to. Only those who have grown up with siblings knows what it feels like to fight, prank, and love a sibling. Ross and Monica Geller were definitely overbearing and overshared some things through the series of "Friends," but they captured perfectly what real siblings feel in real life. Some of their antics were funny, some were a little weird but all of them are completely relatable to brothers and sisters everywhere.
