It Really Makes Me Wonder

It was just a question.

As humans, we are meant to ponder the meaning of life. If we didn't ponder the meaning of life and ask questions, there would be no reason to study philosophy. So for your convenience, here are some simple questions for you to think about.

1. If a blind man looks at Medusa, does he still turn to stone?

He's technically not looking at her, so would he or would he not?

2. If Cinderella's shoes fit her perfectly, how did she lose one?

The Fairy Godmother made the shoes just for Cinderella. Why would the Fairy Godmother give her shoes that were too big and If they were too big, why did Cinderella not have blisters on the back of her feet?

3. If Jimmy cracked corn and no one cared, why is there a song about it?

He obviously cared enough about Jimmy cracking the corn to write a song about it.

4. What color does a Smurf turn when it's choking?

Humans turn blue when they are choking. Smurfs are already blue, so what color do they turn?

5. If we are not supposed to talk to strangers, how do we make friends?

All of our friends started as strangers, so are they not supposed to be our friends because they are strangers?

6. How does the Trix Rabbit know that Trix are good if the kids never let him have any?

I can't be the only person that has thought this.

7. Why doesn't Tarzan have a beard?

Tarzan spent his entire life in the jungle living with the apes. Shouldn't he have a beard?

8. Why do people sing "Take me out to the ballgame" when they are already at the ball game?

You are already there. Do you want to be at a different ballgame?

9. If quitters never win, and winners never quit, why are we suppose to quit while we’re ahead?

I just confused myself with this one!

10. If a product is better than the leading brand, then why is it not the leading brand?

Wouldn't being better make them the leading brand?

11 Things Summer Nannies Can Relate To

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.

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.

Growing up I have always wanted to own a horse. My grandparents own a well known equestrian facility in Georgia, so I have been riding since I was born. A bond between a person and their horse is a bond so strong that it cannot be broken. Everywhere I went I wanted to be around horses, even forcing my family to go on trail rides during vacations. Horses have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember has taught me great responsibility, as well as 14 things that all equestrians can relate to.

College is super hard. Between working, studying, and having a social life, it feels like a struggle to just keep afloat.

I understand. When you feel like your drowning and there's no way to stay afloat I understand that it feels like everyone else is doing just fine. I understand all the frustration, long nights in the library, and that feeling that you want to just throw in the towel. I understand that sometimes it's too hard to get out of bed because your brain is already filled with too much information to remember. I understand because I am also feeling pretty burnt out.

Some of the best advice I've ever received was from my social studies teacher in sophomore year of high school. He stated, "If you don't know it at midnight, you're not going to know it for the 8 a.m. exam, so get some sleep."

It's such a simple piece of advice, but it holds so much accuracy and it's something that the majority of college students need to hear and listen to. "All-nighters" are a commonality on college campuses in order to cram in studying for an exam that is typically the next day.
