An Open Letter To My Bed At Home

You're always there to catch me when I fall...asleep.

An Open Letter To My Bed At Home
http://mattrothphoto.photoshelter.com/

Hello,

It's me. I was wondering if after all this time you'd like to meet, to go over everything? All Adele aside, I know there are somethings we have to talk about. First and foremost I want you to know that what you may have heard is true, I've been sleeping with someone else. I don't want to lie to you, you know I care about you way too much to ever break that trust. I know I'm in the wrong here; it honestly isn't you, it's me. I understand that doesn't excuse my actions but I wanted to at least explain myself because I feel you deserve it.

I know we both said we could totally do this long distance relationship thing, but I'm not as strong as you think I am. I have wants and needs, and I really don't like sleeping on the floor. What happened between me and this other bed, I want you to understand it meant nothing. You're still my number one babe and you always will be. If it makes you feel any better, sleeping on this twin size mattress has made me appreciate you thatmuch more.

I should thank you more and I'm sorry that I haven't. You're always there for me at the end of a long day and you don't even mind when I stumble in slightly intoxicated at varying hours of the night. You seem to always put me before you and I truly appreciate that. Thanks for still staying with me even after seeing me cry.

If you'd do me the honor of granting me a second chance, I'd love to prove to you just how much you mean to me. I know sometimes you get jealous when I leave you on sunny days, but if staying inside with you all summer is what it'll take to mend this relationship then I'm willing to go to that length for you. In just a few short weeks I'll be back at home, our home, and I won't leave you again. Well, actually, unless I get that summer position up at school, and in that case, we'd have to cherish the few short weeks we have together. I know you don't want me to go, but deep down we both know this job would get us to the financial state we're longing to be at. I could finally get you that Vera Bradley blanket you've been wanting for so long. Remember, distance makes the heart grow fonder.

I know you have a lot to think about and I don't blame you if you don't want to speak for awhile. Just know that I never meant to hurt you and you always have a special place in my heart.

Much love,

Your Person

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…

Daydreaming

day·dream (ˈdāˌdrēm/): a series of pleasant thoughts that distract one's attention from the present.

Daydreams, the savior of our life in class. Every type of student in the classroom does it at least once, but most cases it is an everyday event, especially in that boring class -- you know the one. But what are we thinking while we are daydreaming?

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.

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.
