Is it just me?

Maybe it's me...

Is it just me?

Maybe I am just the one that would rather have one single friend that I can trust with every single secret, than a thousands friends who just run their mouths about everything and about me.

I'd rather have the one friend who genuinely loves me for who I am, than many fake friends who's love is just fake.

I just rather have that one friend who will show up when things are hard for me, than fake friends who flake on me when times get tough.

I'd rather have one friend who will scream and clap and celebrate my successes, than fake friends that are rolling their eyes as I succeed in life, as they secretly hope I fail.

I just rather have that one friend who accepts me as I am, than fake friends who I have to impress every time I am around them or to even just keep them around.

I'd rather have that one friend who forgives me when I slip up in life just because they know my heart if pure, than fake ones who expect nothing but perfection.

I'd rather have that one friend who stays and holds me close when I need it, than fake friends who will flake and take me in when something or someone better comes along.

I would rather have that one friend who lifts me up, than fake ones trying to tear me down daily.

I would rather have that one friend who sees me for me, than fake ones who look away or even right through me.

I'd rather have that one friend who genuinely cares about my best interest in things, than someone who pretends like they do and only cares about what I do for them.

I would rather have one friend who is always there right beside me through the bad times and the good, not the fake ones that run when the bad things hit and can't see the good things that are happening right before you.

I'd rather have that one friend who keeps their word to me and tells me the truth and never says "I love you" in vain, than fake friends who will say any pretty lie they can come up with and that goes back on their promises.

That one true friend is better than millions of fake friends.

I think the hardest thing about going away to college is figuring out how to become an adult. Leaving a household where your parents took care of literally everything (thanks, Mom!) and suddenly becoming your own boss is overwhelming. I feel like I'm doing a pretty good job of being a grown-up, but once in awhile I do something that really makes me feel like I'm #adulting. Twenty-somethings know what I'm talking about.

I went to a small high school, like 120-people-in-my-graduating-class small. It definitely had some good and some bad, and if you also went to a small high school, I’m sure you’ll relate to the things that I went through.

1. If something happens, everyone knows about it

Who hooked up with whom at the party? Yeah, heard about that an hour after it happened. You failed a test? Sorry, saw on Twitter last period. Facebook fight or, God forbid, real fight? It was on half the class’ Snapchat story half an hour ago. No matter what you do, someone will know about it.

Chandler Bing

I'm assuming that we've all heard of the hit 90's TV series, Friends, right? Who hasn't? Admittedly, I had pretty low expectations when I first started binge watching the show on Netflix, but I quickly became addicted.

Without a doubt, Chandler Bing is the most relatable character, and there isn't an episode where I don't find myself thinking, Yup, Iam definitely the Chandler of my friend group.

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!
