Find Yourself In Your 20s

There is no better time to define yourself than in your twenties, this is the most important decade of your life.

I'm a firm believer that your 20's is a time meant for you to find yourself and discover who you are. When you hit your 20's that's when the reality seems to really set in that you are now an adult, and that's not always fun. You ask a lot of people I'm sure you will hear most of them say that they at least sometimes wish they could be a kid again because it was so simple. I know I've felt that way before, but I've also come to realize I've never been happier with who I am than right now.



I like to think of your 20's as the 'selfish' years. There is a time in everyone's life where they are entitled to be a little selfish and what better time than your twenties. In your twenties you discover who you really are and who you want to be. This is the time find all your likes and dislikes, things your good at and maybe not so good at. At this age you've got nothing but freedom and time for you so be selfish with it.



I think I've discovered more about myself in these short few years of being in my 20's than I have in my entire lifetime. I not only discovered things about myself but new outlooks on life and I think that's what you're twenties are about; molding yourself to be who you were meant to be.

There will be some days where you just want to say...


Let's face it not every day will be a good one and some day it will feel like being an adult is just too much, but of course we can't stop time. Stop putting pressure on yourself to have your life together, and take advantage of the youth you have left. After all you may never get another chance to be 'selfish' and discover who you are, so take the bad with the good and make it all count. When you're in your 20's the world is at your finger tips; it's what you choose to do with it.

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…

Daydreaming

day·dream (ˈdāˌdrēm/): a series of pleasant thoughts that distract one's attention from the present.

Daydreams, the savior of our life in class. Every type of student in the classroom does it at least once, but most cases it is an everyday event, especially in that boring class -- you know the one. But what are we thinking while we are daydreaming?

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.

If it hurts now, it'll hurt again. Not because you're gullible or naive, only because you fall fast, hard, and you do it every time.

We fall each and every time with the complete and utter confidence that someone will be there to catch us. Now that person we SWORE we were never going to fall for has our hearts, and every time we see them our palms start sweating. The butterflies in our stomach start to soar and our hearts are entirely too close to bursting out of our chests.
