I’ve always been someone who cares what others think. "Will they judge me for this?" "Are other people doing this too?" "Is this acceptable?" These questions pop up in my mind as I go about my daily life. Thankfully, I've recognized my inclination to "conform" and have learned how to fight it. I've learned how to be myself -- my unapologetic self.

You see, there will always be someone who disproves of your actions and choices. Always. That is why I challenge you to stop thinking what others think and just be YOU!

I challenge you to share this article (optional), post #5embarassingfacts about yourself and then challenge a friend to do the same!

Here are my #5embarassingfacts :

1. I went through a weird Nacho Libre phase at age 13. I even owned the mask.

2. This was, of course, following my weird Indiana Jones phase at age 12. I had an Indiana Jones themed party. And yes, I had the hat.

3. I shamelessly know all the lyrics to "Nothing Suits Me Like a Suit" from "How I Met Your Mother."

4. And pretty much any song off of "SpongeBob Squarepants" (A Grill is Not a Home" is to this day the most hauntingly beautiful melody to grace my ears).

5. Some of my days start with weights, yoga and a green protein smoothie; others start with me wiping my makeup off from under my eyes and Chick-Fil-A. Life is perfectly imperfect. But that's what makes it fun. :-)

11 Things Summer Nannies Can Relate To

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.
