Yeah we don't always see eye to eye, but I love you and you have taught me so many lessons that I will never forget.

Dear Dad, Thank You For Everything You've Done For Me

From telling me the story of my birth on my birthday every year, to seeing me graduate this past week, you have always been there for me and supported the decisions I have made. Though I have made some wrong decisions, and you have called me out on those decisions. Those little things you have done for me have molded me into the woman I am today, and I cannot thank you enough for that.

Whether you are making me laugh or cry, you were always there. Through the good and the bad, you always had my back. You understand me in ways I don't give you enough credit for. All you want is what is best for me and though we have had our disagreements about what exactly is best for me, we always are able to figure out a compromise or listen to what the other is trying to say.

No, I don't help with yard work or any of your projects, and no I will not shave my head, but I can promise you this, yes, I will always talk to you about politics or what is going on in the world, yes I will talk and help out whenever I can with understanding you and the world around me. The conversations we have are second to none, some are silly and others more serious, they will always hold a special place in my heart.

You never fail to make me smile, and I hope I do the same for you. You have helped me so much and I thank you for everything you have done for me. Happy Father's day dad, I love you to the moon and back, and no matter how much you bother me, that will never change.

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!
