I Don't Want To Graduate From College Just Yet

Just as the title says, I do not want to graduate from college.

Ok, of course, I want to graduate in order to obtain a degree, and progress in life. But also I kind of don't want to because I am going to miss my friends, my life in this crazy college town, my apartment, and being on my parent's payroll. (Need I say more?)

I am just not all that jazzed about having to pay real bills, get a real job, and being a real adult. I am not afraid to say that I selfishly like running around college and not worrying about anything other than what I am going to wear out that night or where the next birthday pre is going to be.

College is literally the best time of your life where you make some of your best memories and it makes me salty af that we ever have to leave this magical place. If you do not feel this way about your soon-to-be alma mater then you definitely spent the last few years at the wrong place.

Think back to when you were graduating from high school, you would count down the days until you were free of that prison, but graduating college is literally the opposite. I refuse to even learn the date of graduation. (Even though my family is constantly asking.)

Everyone knows that all good things must come to an end, therefore I am thankful for the time I had in college. I am so lucky to have met friends I hope to keep for life, and even luckier to know that I can look back on these years and hold securely in the fact that I appreciated every moment of 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…

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.
