Grandparents are always fun to have in your life. This can be true whether they are your great grandparents or your grandparents. Growing up with such "great" great-parents around me, as made me into who I am today. Without them, I would not know half the stuff I do, or I probably would not have made it this far.

Grandparents are valuable to have because we all know you can go to them for everything. They spoil you way too much and would drop anything to be there for you. Your grandparents always will be one of your biggest supporters so do not take them for granted.

I grew up with many grandparents in my life. I have some more than others, but that did not change anything. I grew up with the best grandparents a girl could ever have. They spent endless days playing and doing whatever I wanted to do. I hardly ever heard the word no from them.

They taught me so many valuable lessons I could never forget. The endless memories with them I will always cherish. I grew up being my Pawpaw's favorite great-grandchild. Being the favorite was pretty great because I was always getting spoiled.

My great-grandparents were there for me countless times. They kept me when I was not old enough for school yet. We spent countless afternoons in the garden. They would teach me everything I need to know about growing vegetables. That was there thing hanging out at home and gardening.

My great-grandparents were family people. We have a huge family and every holiday my great grandparents made sure we gathered as a family during those important holidays. They loved being around family and spending time together. They loved every one of us. Pawpaw might have loved me a little more, but that's okay.

My great-grandparents also had a love for each other that everyone could see. They were married for many years. Them leaving this earth was so hard for everyone and still is today no matter how long it has been. They were the rock to this family. They made sure everyone was okay and well at all times. They were the most loving and welcoming people.

To know my great-grandparents was knowing someone real special because everyone that knew them loved them. I still to this day never stop thinking of them. I will always cherish our memories and forever love them.

I'll admit it, I have a condition called RBF or, if you will, Resting Bitch Face.

Anna Kendrick, poor Kristen Stewart, the Queen of England are all life-long sufferers of RBF. Victoria Beckham even made a career out of it! And though it's usually used to describe women, some men are also afflicted. Kanye West is the best example of this.

Everyone who is in college right now, or has ever been, knows the struggle of pulling in the strings at the last second. It seems impossible, and you have to do a LOT of things in order to assure your future for the next semester.

April Ludgate, historically, is a very annoyed person, and she doesn't hide it. Of all the times that I binged and re-binged "Parks and Rec," her attitude relates more and more to me.

Ask friends of mine to name a quality about me, and one a lot them will point out the fact that I am almost always smiling. I like to laugh and smile -- not to quote Buddy the Elf in April, but smiling is my favorite! It is probably my favorite go-to expression. However, what a lot of people do not see is that I have my down days. I have days when smiling and laughing is a real struggle, or when I have so much on my plate that going out of my way to behappy takes more effort than I have stored in me. Be it a symptom of college and growing up or a facet of life, I cannot always be content.
