1. How to keep bees:

Bees are dying out so quickly that there is a petition to get them on the United States' endangered species list. I think it would be cool to learn how to keep them safe and off the endangered species list. Hopefully my attempts don't turn out like the guy above.

2. How to paint with watercolors:

Art is a beautiful thing. I can't think of a better way to show my appreciation to art and artists alike than to learn to paint. One day when I am rich I will pay all you wonderful artists, but for now I will learn to paint.

3. How to make candles:

Who doesn't love candles? I am a candle fanatic. I think it would be totally legit to be able to make my own candles with their own scents, colors, size, and fancy styles. Making candles would be a really cool skill!

4. How to code:

Coding could be a valuable skill in today's technological world and it would be very helpful just knowing the basics of how things like the internet work. Also, I'd like to be referred to as Hackerman when I learn to code, thanks.

5. How to bind books:

As a lover of books, I have often sat and wondered how books were bound before they were being mass produced. I have also wondered how I would ever get my beloved books fixed because in all honesty, I am not the nicest to them. Well, bookbinding was my answer and after some research I decided that I wanted to learn to bind books! It would be so cool to fix up old books for a library or museum!

6. How to become a TeaMaster:

Now, before you go shaking your head at me, tea mastery is a real thing. They have schools you can go to that teach you how to make tea from the actual tea leaves, how to mix them to make your own flavors, or teas to help with certain ailments!! I think that'd be a pretty cool gig.


These are just a few things I think would be cool to know how to do. I hope you find them neat too!!

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!
