So, if you you're having a bad day, or just need a little something to turn that frown upside down... Enjoy these random, and probably useless facts that simply just make me smile! I hope they make you smile too!

1. Sea horses hold each others tails when traveling. The men also carry and produce the babies

It's so cute. I can't. Like just heart warmed. Bam. As for the babies, at least one man on this earth gets the pain. LOL>

2. Rainbows can occur at night... They're called "moonbows"

Life goal; see a moonbow, and shout "IT'S A MOONBOW"

I feel like there'd be a unicorn chilling nearby, I mean come on, A NIGHT RAINBOW!!

3. Squirrels help to plant thousands of trees a year. But it's because they're forgetful... They forget where they put their acorns, A.K.A their food source

Don't feel bad if you're forgetful... Sometimes it can really be a good thing. So the next time you're hard on yourself for forgetting, remember this!

4. Some people actually believe chocolate milk is produced by brown cows

As long as you don't believe this, you're going somewhere in life. I promise, you will be okay.

5. Crocodiles can not stick their tongues out

Poor things!

6. Monday, January 27th is National Bubble Wrap Appreciation day

With all the odd, national holidays that have been created.. I am so happy this exists. I mean like, yeah, GO bubble wrap!

7. Penguins propose to their (potential) lifetime mate by offering them a pebble

Giphy

I. Want. A. Pebble.

This fact also always reminds me of the Halloween Charlie Brown special, when the little boy holds his hand up and says, "I got a rock"

8. Shakira was kicked out of her choir as a kid because they thought she was a bad singer. And Madonna worked at Dunkin before becoming famous

Never give up on your dreams. That is all I have to say.

9. Dolphins get high by playing with pufferfish

The poison in puffer fish released when they puff up, gets the dolphins high.

It just goes to show, that everyone needs to take some time to relax and have fun. It's okay to live your life.

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!
