If you currently are (or ever have been) a sales associate, then I'm sure you're familiar with the stress and anxiety that comes with rush hour. Fortunately, I've created a list of four ways to help you get through it instead of letting it get the best of you. Simply keep reading on to learn more!

1. Stay hydrated so that you can stay energized.

If you know your shift is going to be a hectic one, then make sure to bring some water along with you so that you can refresh yourself after assisting several of your customers.

2. Take a break if you feel like you need one.

Don't be afraid to ask your manager if you're allowed to take your break. I suggest waiting until after the chaos calms down before you actually do so, however.

3. Get your manager if you need his or her assistance with something.

You'll know when the time is right, especially if you feel uncomfortable at any point. Seriously, don't hesitate to ask for your manager's help if you need it.

4. Remember that the rush isn't going to last forever.

The reality is, you'll eventually get to clock out and go home for the day. And when you do, you can leave feeling satisfied knowing you survived another successful rush hour at work!

This is for the girls who have dealt with an emotionally, mentally, physically or verbally abusive father.

The ones who have grown up with a false lens of what love is and how relationships should be. The ones who have cried themselves to sleep wondering why he hurts you and your family so much. This is for all the girls who fall in love with broken boys that carry baggage bigger than their own, thinking it's their job to heal them because you watched your mother do the same.

Why Blair Waldorf Is The Realest Bitch To Ever Live

XOXO, Gossip Girl.

Blair Waldorf Quote
"DESTINY IS FOR LOSERS. IT'S JUST A STUPID EXCUSE TO WAIT FOR THINGS TO HAPPEN INSTEAD OF MAKING THEM HAPPEN." - BLAIR WALDORF.

The world stopped in 2012 when our beloved show "Gossip Girl" ended. For six straight years, we would all tune in every Monday at 9:00 p.m. to see Upper Eastside royalty in the form of a Burberry headband clad Blair Waldorf. Blair was the big sister that we all loved to hate. How could we ever forget the epic showdowns between her and her frenemy Serena Van Der Woodsen? Or the time she banished Georgina Sparks to a Christian summer camp? How about that time when she and her girls took down Bart Bass? Blair is life. She's taught us how to dress, how to be ambitious, and most importantly, how to throw the perfect shade.

You're moving your stuff onto your floor, and you will encounter people you don't know yet in the hallway. They live on your floor, so you'll awkwardly smile and maybe introduce yourself. As you walk away, you will wonder if they will ever speak to you again, but don't worry, there's a good chance that you will make some great friends on your floor!

The college years are a time for personal growth and success. Everyone comes in with expectations about how their life is supposed to turn out and envision the future. We all freak out when things don't go exactly as planned or when our expectations are unmet. As time goes on, we realize that the uncertainty of college is what makes it great. Here are some helpful reminders about life in college.

Recently I completed my freshman year of college, and boy, what an experience. It was a completely new learning environment and I can't believe how much I learned. In an effort to save time, here are the ten biggest lessons I learned from my first year of college.

1. Everyone is in the same boat

For me, the scariest part of starting school was that I was alone, that I wouldn't be able to make any friends and that I would stick out. Despite being told time and time again that everyone had these same feelings, it didn't really click until the first day when I saw all the other freshman looking as uneasy and uncomfortable as me. Therefore, I cannot stress this enough, everyone is feeling as nervous as you.
