February Has Nothing Going For It

We are all in a February funk...

February is the worst month of the year. Sorry if your birthday is February or you are some weirdo who's favorite holiday is Presidents Day or Valentine's Day, but I am pretty sure everyone is in a February funk right now. It might be the shortest month of the year but it feels unbearably long. February is like the friend you don't invite anywhere but she comes anyway and you just roll your eyes and ignore her. February is like your cousin who you only see on Christmas and your conversation doesn't ever seem to go past elevator talk. So what I am trying to say is that every other month has something going for it except sucky February.

In January, winter break just ended and you are ready to get back to school. You haven't broken your New Years Resolution yet, you're still a fan of the snow, and winter is at its peak.

February, we will get back to you.

March: It's the month of Spring Break. How could you not be excited? Also, Saint Patrick's day is in March and honestly if you don't like wearing green and drinking green rivers and going to the parade and eating potatoes and corn beef and celebrating as my Dad would say, "our Irish heritage and that potato famine that really hurt our ancestors..." Okay, Dad. But anyways... Spring is on the horizon. March is cool. I'm a fan.

April has Easter! The holiday that invented Brunch. I love Brunch. Yum. Also, you are on the home stretch. Second semester is on it's way to a close and you are feeling good. Spring has sprung, you finally get to put away your winter clothes, and it's so pretty outside :)

May: I MAY be biased. Haha. Punny. But May is my birth month. So obviously it's the best month because we get to celebrate me! Also, school is over and summer has started. What could be better than that? Nothing. Nothing is better than summer.

June: Summer is in full swing. That's literally all I need to say. People, every month of summer is a good month.

July: Also summer... Yay! And the Fourth of July! Who doesn't like fireworks? And BBQ's and summer. Wow. Kinda wishing it was July right now...

August: Summer is coming to a close but you are ready at this point. The weather is still fan- f**ing- tastic, and you can't wait to start that next year of college. You have been home for just too long at this point. Also, the beginning of the school year is always the best.

September: Fall is starting, the leaves are changing, and it's only a little chilly :). Omg. You are making the change from summer clothes to fall clothes. It's a nice time. You are still feeling good.

October: Halloween people! Halloween! And it's like completely fall at this point and the leaves are falling, yadda yadda.

November: Thanksgiving is legit. Food is prime, the weather is still pretty okay. Honestly, Thanksgiving is in the running for being my favorite holiday. It's so chill. And Black Friday deals ;) Also, you have a good break from school this month and you are in the final stretch of first semester.

December: CHRISTMAS. Presents. Hanukkah as well. Whatever you celebrate, December is full of the best holidays. If you go to my school you get a full month off and you literally don't have to do anything. No complaints. Keep doing you December.

So if you can't tell by now, February is the goddamn worst but we all are going through it together people. It's only 29 days. Don't worry it will be over soon and your funk will be gone. Before we know it, it will be March and we will all be happy and on Spring Break. :)

Also, I think February is trying to step up their game with this spring weather it's giving us. Good try, Feb. Good try.

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.

15 Things That Happen On Your Birthday

Do you have a small get-together or throw a big bash?

birthday party

My birthday has never been my favorite holiday. I've found that I'm more excited to celebrate my friends' and family members' birthdays more than my own. I don't like being the center of attention, so I usually celebrate over dinner with a small group of family and friends. This way, I can enjoy myself naturally without feeling like I have to entertain everyone and make sure they are satisfied. In the past when I've had large parties, I was so nervous that people weren't perfectly content that I didn't enjoy myself at my own celebration.
