We've all been to the mall at least once in our lives, and odds are if you've been to the mall you've been in or seen a Spencer's Gifts. Spencer's is known for selling adult products, but, they also sell t-shirts, gag gifts, shot glasses, and other fun items. So what are the employees like? Well here are five misconceptions people have of Spencer's employees.

1. Rebellious

Some people would assume that someone who works in a store like this must not follow all the rules, if that was the case, none of us would have jobs. Spencer's has rules for it's employees to follow just like every other employer, and just like every other employer, if you don't follow the rules you can say goodbye to your job.

2. Immoral

Working at Spencer's, I can tell you this is one-hundred percent false. Every person I work with is a good person and would do anything for someone who needed help. I know for a fact my co-workers would give me the shirts off their backs if I was in need.

3. Atheist/Non-Religious

While everyone who works at Spencer's doesn't have the same views when it comes to religion, and sure, there are some employees who are atheist or non-religious that doesn't apply to all of us. I and several of my co-workers are Christians and were raised going to church.

4. Sex Crazy

While I can't speak for all of my co-workers, I can tell you that I, myself, think sex should be shared between two people who really love each other. We're also not all into the freaky sex stuff.

5. Disappointed parents

"Aren't your parents upset you work at a place like that?" I have been asked this question before and the answer is no. My parents are proud of me for getting a job and making my own money. My dad was even excited because of all the cool band tees and other merchandise we sell. Sure, some people's parents might be a little weird about it, but in the end IT IS A JOB!

Overall, we're just trying to do our jobs, provide good customer service and make our money. We're all good people that are fun to hang out with and talk to. So, next time you see a Spencer's, go in and check out the cool stuff we sell and maybe have a conversation with one of the employees . You'll come to see we're just people, living like and making it fun.

Dear High School Friend Group,

My sweet angels, where would I be without you guys. We all grew up together because we either met in middle school or high school and watched each other grow up and get "old." We got to go to prom together and then graduate together. Then watched each other as we continued our lives in college, joining sororities and meeting people who will impact our lives forever. It all has happened so fast.

Oh college, we can’t live with you, but we can’t live without you. It’s a love/hate relationship, really. College is an experience that no one can ever prepare you for, and maybe that’s a good thing. You never really expect any of the things that college encompasses until you are there. College is fun, but don’t have too much fun. C’s get degrees, but they don’t get you into graduate school.

Blair Waldorf

The "Gossip Girl" series may be over, but Blair Waldorf's iconic character lives in our hearts forever. Blair was the queen of the Upper East Side, and a character you either loved or hated. She taught us everything we needed to know about life, love and of course, how to score a Chuck Bass. So the next time you feel a bit lost and are in need of guidance, look no further than to the Queen B herself.

As I spend my Sunday avoiding my homework and other adult responsibilities, I realized that I've watched this series over and over about a million times. Sadly, there isn't a Blair quote I don't know, so I came up with a list of a few favorites. You know you love her...xoxo

College is an endless cycle of crappy, sleepless nights, tedious, boring lectures, and hours of never-ending piles of homework.

Summer: a time (usually) free from school work and a time to relax with your friends and family. Maybe you go on a vacation or maybe you work all summer, but the time off really does help. When you're in college you become super close with so many people it's hard to think that you won't see many of them for three months. But, then you get that text saying, "Hey, clear your schedule next weekend, I'm coming up" and you begin to flip out. Here are the emotions you go through as your best friend makes her trip to your house.
