Confessions From A Daddy's Girl
Abbie Folk

Daddy's girls are seen to be spoiled and, well, close to their fathers. I would know this because I am a Daddy's girl. Ever since I was a little girl, I would go to McDonald's with my dad or go Christmas shopping for my mom with him. Because I am a Daddy's Girl, I have high expectations for relationships. My daddy has always treated me like "his little princess". I think this is where my obsession with fairy tales comes from. A father is the first man a girl will ever love. The man I want to end up with is the man who my father is. Surprise sunflowers or new The Walking Dead episodes every Sunday.

Confession #1: My Dad has always surprised me.

When I was growing up, my dad traveled a lot because of his job. He would always bring me the latest toy home and I would play with them forever. Whether it be Teen Titans or Princess Jasmine's castle. It was always a surprise. When I was younger, toys were all the rage, but now I have realized that my father has become this positive example in my life and that is the best surprise of them all.

Confession #2: My Dad has taught me a lot of lessons.

Work hard and have fun later. A motto I live by because my father has taught me to work hard and never give up. I have always been a diligent and hard-working student. I have never been to a college party because I prefer quiet nights at home or a small gathering with a some of my closest friends. I have big dreams and high expectations. My dad has these too, but his dreams have already came true.

Confession #3: Laugh it OFF.

I laugh all the time. Even if I do not get the joke, I still laugh. It's funny to not get the joke that is being told. My dad is a jokester at a heart. He jokes around all the time; I guess you can call him Chandler Bing. My dad always finds away to laugh at anything. I have learned this too because I laugh at all things. It is better to laugh then to hold grudges. Laughing is the best medicine.

Confession #4: I am an overachiever.

Considering that my dad has to work hard his entire life, inspires me. Working hard is a key aspect in my everyday life. People will always ask, "Why do you turn in assignments earlier"? or they will say, "You have already started something! It's not due for weeks"! I love college and I love to learn. There is something magical about learning that excites me, just call me Rory Gilmore.

Confession #5: I love my Dad!

I am happy that God gave me the father that I have. My dad has set an positive example for my brothers and I. My dad was always there to watch The Walking Dead with me (my friends do not watch scary shows) or the times when he would surprise me with sunflowers. I have learned that my dad has set an example for me to follow. I only hope I can marry a man who loves me as much as my Daddy does!

I think the hardest thing about going away to college is figuring out how to become an adult. Leaving a household where your parents took care of literally everything (thanks, Mom!) and suddenly becoming your own boss is overwhelming. I feel like I'm doing a pretty good job of being a grown-up, but once in awhile I do something that really makes me feel like I'm #adulting. Twenty-somethings know what I'm talking about.

I went to a small high school, like 120-people-in-my-graduating-class small. It definitely had some good and some bad, and if you also went to a small high school, I’m sure you’ll relate to the things that I went through.

1. If something happens, everyone knows about it

Who hooked up with whom at the party? Yeah, heard about that an hour after it happened. You failed a test? Sorry, saw on Twitter last period. Facebook fight or, God forbid, real fight? It was on half the class’ Snapchat story half an hour ago. No matter what you do, someone will know about it.

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!
