Dear future husband...

Dear future husband (cue Megan Trainor song),

Hey. How are you? I really hope you're doing better than ever. I know I don't know who you are yet, but that definitely doesn't stop me from wondering who you are. It's probably weird how often I actually think about who you might be. My roommates even know if I could have one wish it would be to know who I am going to marry. Not even kidding. I'm curious as to what you're doing right now. Or where you might be. Are we even in the same state? The same side of the country, or the same side of the world? Can't you just reveal yourself already? I guess that would take the fun out of it.

If I was presented with a book that would tell me everything about the rest of my life, the only part I would want to know is who you are. Again yeah, I know that's kind of strange, but you're going to have to get used to strange.

Have we already crossed paths? Are you someone I've known for years, maybe even someone from high school? If I'm being honest, I sure hope not. Are we going to meet in college? Do I have to wait all the way until junior or senior year? I'm not even sure I can wait that long. I am by no means in a rush to get married anytime soon, but it would be a HUGE stress reliever to know that you do exist. That love does exist. That I won't be alone forever.

Maybe we will meet at a bar like my parents did. Or maybe we will meet in a class where we are forced into being partners for some stupid project. Maybe we won't even know how we met. We just randomly knew each other one day. Wait... are we even the same age right now?

I hope life is handing you everything you've ever wanted right now. If you're currently in a relationship, I hope she genuinely makes you happy. And you better be treating her right. She should know she isn't the one though. Sorry not sorry.

I can't wait until I wake up everyday next to the love of my life. I'm pretty sick of waking up alone, or sometimes maybe not with the person I want to be with. I hope you smile when you think of me and I actually really hope you can handle all I am going to throw at you. I have confidence you can. I pray that you are good with kids, but I have a feeling that you are probably better with them than I am.

Of course there are other things I lowkey (maybe highkey) picture about you. I wouldn't mind if you were tall, with pretty eyes, a perfect smile, and had 5 or 6 zeros attached. I most definitely would not mind if you were athletic and liked college basketball and baseball. But don't worry that's not a requirement. You'll just have to deal with it being on in our house.

So to my future husband, if you are reading this, XOXO.

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.
