The Election Is OVER
Full Time Gypsies

Whew. Ok. What. An. Election.

You might be super happy, you might be super pissed. But hey, bud, lets talk about all the election swag you've been wearing for 8 months. What are you going to do with it all? The posters, magnets, caps, stickers, buttons, mugs, phone cases...it's a bit much. Don't you think? Here are just a few of the things you can do with them.

Create a Keepsake

Embrace your inner hoarder. You go ahead and collect all the buttons and stickers people have thrown away from candidates that just didn't make it. After all, this was a hard-fought race, we should celebrate the candidates that worked for our votes. Forget the haters and continue to rock that Jill Stein sticker on your bumper: you'll get some looks, but let's just say that its jealousy.

Scrapbook It. It's History

Regardless of who wins, it is history. Regardless of who loses, its also history. Put those stickers and flyers in a scrapbook to save for years to come. Your kids and grand kids will definitely be bored when you talk about how you voted in the most important election ever.

Sell Them

Those pins that you spent $3 on? Yeah, save them and sell them. You can actually buy sets of pins for upwards of $50. That's a profit right there! Don't you think people will want to remember this election for years to come? Uh, yeah, me neither.

Throw It Away

I think we can all agree, this election has been a wash. Lets throw away/burn all evidence of the 2016 election and start fresh in 2020.

It's a time of love, family, memory-making, and gift-giving. But also a time of stressing over the perfect gift.

It's officially December. There is less than a month of 2024, and I still feel like yesterday was summer. Now comes the merriest time of the year, the Christmas season.

Everyone has been waiting for this time of year since mid-October (which is way too early, in my opinion) or before. It's a time of love, family, memory-making, and gift-giving. A lot of times when I ask friends and family what they want, I get a lot of "I don't know" or "I don't care."

mu bucket list

I was sitting at my cubicle, now that I am an adult, looking at the rain pouring down on the windowsill, bumming on life, wishing for the rain to just stop for a full day.

There are moments where we count down the hours until work is over and how many more days till the weekend, and this many weeks until something exciting. Or something like that? Well, I was bumming because my next day off from work is not until Memorial Day weekend, which is not until the end of May. And since this is my first year out of college being a “real person,” I am totally missing the winter, spring and summer breaks. I am sure all of us have felt this way even if just for a hot minute…
