It's a week long Christmas to all of those students who associate themselves with a Greek organization-- Greek Week. Yes, it is these two words that turn your normal, studious campus into a wild, raging jungle full of passionate people about those letters they proudly represent.

Other than Greek Week being a fun week full of bonding activities for you and your chapter, it turns the most innocent people into screaming heathens that chant their organization's name over and over... and over again.

And it's awesome.

Here is Greek Week, told by your favorite characters in The Office.

2. When you see your friends from another chapter and try to act all tough:

3. When you win an event you didn't expect to win:

4. Trying to psych out the competition like:

5. When someone asks you if you are a lead in your Airband:

6. When people try to get in fights over events:

7. Being paranoid and thinking other chapters are spying on your Airband practices like this:

8. Celebrating the wins like:

9. When you lose the hot dog eating contest:

10. Acting like you care about class this week when you've gotten maybe five total hours of sleep:

11. That one dude that shows off in every event:

12. You trying to show off doing an event:

13. When you know that win or lose you love your chapter so much:

14. Trying to love all organizations that week, but remembering you're competitors:

15. When a stressful event is over:

16. When they are announcing the winners:

17. When the week ends:

18. But you realize you get to sleep and act like a normal person again:

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.

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.
