I have loved coffee for years now. It was never a need for caffeine or energy, but the taste and smell of coffee were truly one of the best things I've ever discovered. It wasn't until college that I realized that making my own coffee was better than buying it anywhere. As much as I like to talk about myself, I'm going to go right ahead into the 6 steps anyone can do to make the perfect cup of coffee.

1. Make the coffee

It doesn't matter when you use, whether it's going to be a French press or a Keurig, pick your favorite coffee flavor and brand and make it into a normal coffee mug. Put the mug in the fridge to cool the coffee.

2. Fill a glass with ice

The best coffee is an iced coffee, so make sure you get a glass out of the cabinet or cupboard and put it out. I prefer using a tall glass. I love to use a mason jar, like the one in the gif. Fill it to the brim with ice, and then grab your favorite type of almond milk.

3. Pour the almond milk

Take your favorite almond milk and fill about 1/3 of the glass with almond milk. Make sure that there's not too much in the glass, or else there would too big of a disproportion.

4. Pour the coffee

Here comes the best part. Take the coffee out of the refrigerator and pour it into the mason jar. Now you can watch the coffee mix with the almond milk. It's truly one of the greatest sights in life.

5. Get a reusable straw and stir the drink

Stir it to make sure that the coffee and almond milk mix properly and totally. I think reusable straws are the best decision because plastic straws create a significant amount of unnecessary waste.

6. Enjoy!

You can now drink the best coffee you've ever made! Making your own drinks is truly better than buying coffee from anywhere! Enjoy!

11 Things Summer Nannies Can Relate To

As a college student, being a nanny over the summer is both enjoyable and challenging. Underneath the seemingly perfect trips to the pool or countless hours spent playing Monopoly are the obstacles that only nannies will understand. Trading in your valuable summer vacation in return for three months spent with a few children less than half your age may seem unappealing, but so many moments make it rewarding. For my fellow summer nannies out there, I know you can relate.

If it hurts now, it'll hurt again. Not because you're gullible or naive, only because you fall fast, hard, and you do it every time.

We fall each and every time with the complete and utter confidence that someone will be there to catch us. Now that person we SWORE we were never going to fall for has our hearts, and every time we see them our palms start sweating. The butterflies in our stomach start to soar and our hearts are entirely too close to bursting out of our chests.

Growing up I have always wanted to own a horse. My grandparents own a well known equestrian facility in Georgia, so I have been riding since I was born. A bond between a person and their horse is a bond so strong that it cannot be broken. Everywhere I went I wanted to be around horses, even forcing my family to go on trail rides during vacations.

College is super hard. Between working, studying, and having a social life, it feels like a struggle to just keep afloat.

I understand. When you feel like your drowning and there's no way to stay afloat I understand that it feels like everyone else is doing just fine. I understand all the frustration, long nights in the library, and that feeling that you want to just throw in the towel. I understand that sometimes it's too hard to get out of bed because your brain is already filled with too much information to remember. I understand because I am also feeling pretty burnt out.

Some of the best advice I've ever received was from my social studies teacher in sophomore year of high school. He stated, "If you don't know it at midnight, you're not going to know it for the 8 a.m. exam, so get some sleep."

It's such a simple piece of advice, but it holds so much accuracy and it's something that the majority of college students need to hear and listen to. "All-nighters" are a commonality on college campuses in order to cram in studying for an exam that is typically the next day.
