How many of you have felt completely lost? Maybe you're a freshman in college who's already changed your major more times than you can count. Maybe you're a senior who still doesn't know what the hell to do after graduation. Whatever the reason may be, just know that you are not alone. Just because you are feeling lost does not mean it's the end of the world for you.

I remember being a eniorss in high school. I remember always getting that dreaded question: "what do you want to do with your life?" Some days I would feel really confident and say that I wanted to be a teacher. There were also days where I just didn't know - and that's okay. I'm 20 years old and to be honest, I still don't know. I question my life every day. I don't know where I see myself 5 years from now. I don't know if what I'm doing is the right thing.

If there's any advice I can give to you, just live in the moment. Take life step by step. Don't worry if you still haven't figured out what to do with your life - you will get there. For some people, it takes a little longer than others. We were all put on this earth for a reason. Continue to work to your fullest potential, and don't be afraid to try new things that interest you. Life is not a race. It's a never ending journey with a number of opportunities. We are learning new things about ourselves every day; there is truly no limit to what we can do. You will get there eventually - just don't lose faith in yourself. You can do anything if you put your mind to it.

11 Things Summer Nannies Can Relate To

There are plenty of obstacles that come when taking care of kids, but it's a very rewarding experience.

As a college student, being a nanny over the summer is both enjoyable and challenging. Underneath the seemingly perfect trips to the pool or countless hours spent playing Monopoly are the obstacles that only nannies will understand. Trading in your valuable summer vacation in return for three months spent with a few children less than half your age may seem unappealing, but so many moments make it rewarding. For my fellow summer nannies out there, I know you can relate.

There are a lot of really easy, common names in the U.S. and while many of those simple names have different spellings, most of the time, pronunciation is not an issue that those people need to worry about. However, others are not as fortunate and often times give up on corrections after a while. We usually give an A+ for effort. So, as you could probably imagine, there are a few struggles with having a name that isn’t technically English. Here are just a few…

Puerto Ricans. They are very proud people and whether they were born on the island or born in the United States by Puerto Rican parent(s). It gets even better when they meet another fellow Puerto Rican or Latino in general. You’ll know quickly if they are Puerto Rican whether the flag is printed somewhere on their person or whether they tell you or whether the famous phrase “wepa!” is said.
