Pinterest Saves My Life
Katie Kelley

My Pinterest page is filled with anything from baby clothes to wedding dresses to tattoos I wish I could put on my body. Pinterest on countless occasions has been a life saver, I use many times a day. I wonder if that's why my battery dies so quickly....

Every morning I wake up, roll out of bed, get ready and open my closet. What do I see? NOTHING. I. SEE. NOTHING. Okay, maybe not nothing but I do see countless shirts and cute dresses that have never seen the light of day. How will I ever make it out the door on time with all of these half-outfits? But wait, PINTEREST. I simply find a cute shirt or pants, type in a good description and BANG, outfit upon outfit ideas.

Like any other sorority girl, crafting is a must but when I finally have an hour to spare and I pull out the canvas, paints and brushes, my brain decides that school sucked up all of my creativity. But wait, PINTEREST. Thousands and thousands of ideas of every canvas you can name. Crafting has never been so easy.

Makeup is still a daily task that takes up the time you could be sleeping. Trying to figure out what eyeshadow palette works best and how to properly couture among many other things is still a work in progress. I struggle all the time with how to figure out this new art form. But wait, PINTEREST. Any type of makeup, tricks and tips, you name it, Pinterest has it.

A girl can dream they always say and they are correct, a girl can definitely dream when she pins for hours a day as she dreams of the future. Got a spare moment? Sitting in class zoning out the teacher? Catch yourself dreaming of your wedding dress or what your future house may look like? Just wait, PINTEREST. I can spend hours scrolling through my Pinterest pinning anything and everything that may be involved in my future. I LOVE IT. I may not have it all but at least I can dream about it.

Oh do not worry, Pinterest has it all. One of the most useful apps someone can have. You will never run out of ideas, life hacks, cooking receips and much more. I love you Pinterest.

10 Signs You Work In A Restaurant

There's always chaos in the restaurant business.

10 Signs You Work In A Restaurant
Brisanis

Working in the restaurant industry is possibly the most fundamentally challenging occupation I have ever experienced when it comes to hospitality and customer service. When you go to a five-star restaurant you expect the time of your life, a two hour getaway, a walk through another time period (rustic Italy, France, Spain, etc), or simply a honeymoon undergo. What you don't see are the behind the scenes scut work: carrying trays, polishing glassware and silverware, kitchen chaos, the list is endless. Now, I'm not saying being a host, server, or bartender is the worst thing in the whole wide world, there are definitely worse things. But the fact of the matter is that it isn't always sunshine and rainbows. In the two years that I have spent in restaurant and customer service, I have spoken my share of expletives, yelled at kitchen staff, and dealt with not-so-happy guests. It isn't easy to keep a bright and shiny smile on your face when all you want to do is choke every person who walks near you. Anyone who has spent even two weeks working in a restaurant understands the rigor and stress that comes with it. Restaurant culture is a tiny world in and of itself that operates on its own principles and creates its own society. It even has its own language. The sayings "runner", "corner", and "on a bus" wouldn't make sense to anyone otherwise. My mother and I both work in a restaurant and the best advice I can give someone going out to eat is to treat us like people. Yes...believe it or not we are people, people. Say "please" and "thank you", or stack your cleared plates before a busser gets to the table. Trust me, the gesture goes a lot farther than you may think.

So, if you work in a restaurant, you can relate with the following points. If not, check out how the brain of a restaurant service (or any customer service) worker actually works. See if you can identify any crazy weird habits your friends have a tendency to partake in.

One of the scariest things we will ever face in our life is going to college. Many of us move away to a new town, join new organizations, and make new friends. We are expected to study, have a social life, relationships, maybe work, and be healthy. It seems pretty easy to do, and in high school all we wanted to do was graduate and move on to this next chapter of our lives. If you are in high school, here are some things that you can learn from before you get to college. If you have already been through your freshman year of college, hopefully you can relate to the things I have learned in college.
