Because of the stress that usually comes this time of year, I thought it would be fun to put together a list of my top 10 favorite quotes from The Office.

1. "I wish there was a way to know you're in the good old days before you've actually left them." —Andy

This quote is so relatable in so many ways.

2. " 'You miss 100% of the shots you don't take. -Wayne Gretzky' —Michael Scott"

Such an iconic quote.

3. "I'm not superstitious, but I am a little stitious." —Michael

Aren't we all?

4. "I love catching people in the act. That's why I whip open doors." —Dwight

This is a classic Dwight move.

5. "Bears. Beets. Battlestar Galactica." —Jim

This was one of my favorite Jim pranks.

6. "I am running away from my responsibilities, and it feels good." —Michael

Again, this is completely relatable.

7. "Wikipedia is the best thing ever. Anyone in the world can write anything they want about any subject. So you know you are getting the best possible information." —Michael

Educators everywhere are cringing at this quote.

8. "You know what they say, 'Fool me once, strike one, but fool me twice, strike three.' " —Michael

Close enough, right?

9. "I don't mean to brag, but New Year's Eve...I was home by nine." —Jim

We all need a Jim in our lives.

10. "We should have hired a professional to take the mental pictures." —Pam

Jim and Pam's wedding was actual goals.

These are just some of the many quote throughout the series that were some of my favorites.

11 Things Summer Nannies Can Relate To

There are plenty of obstacles that come when taking care of kids, but it's a very rewarding experience.

University of Wisconsin Branch Schools

1042

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.

There are a lot of really easy, common names in the U.S. and while many of those simple names have different spellings, most of the time, pronunciation is not an issue that those people need to worry about. However, others are not as fortunate and often times give up on corrections after a while. We usually give an A+ for effort. So, as you could probably imagine, there are a few struggles with having a name that isn’t technically English. Here are just a few…

Don't Be That Person

Bowling Green State University

Jessica Pinero

Puerto Ricans. They are very proud people and whether they were born on the island or born in the United States by Puerto Rican parent(s). It gets even better when they meet another fellow Puerto Rican or Latino in general. You’ll know quickly if they are Puerto Rican whether the flag is printed somewhere on their person or whether they tell you or whether the famous phrase “wepa!” is said.

To The Girl Who Falls Too Fast, Never Be Ashamed Of How Hard You Love

Love hard, every day, and never be ashamed.

3200

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.
