13 Truths Girls Who Only Wear Black Understand

There are two types of people in the world -- the people who wear bright colors and the people who wear dark colors. While bright colors and prints may be "fun," dark colors are all you really need. They're sophisticated, elegant, slimming, and "fun" in their own way.

1. If you had a dollar for every time you were asked if you're going to a funeral, you would just buy more black clothes.

"Nice outfit, are you going to a funeral?"

"Yeah, yours." *Hair flip* "Bye."

2. Shopping doesn't take long.

You walk in a store, head straight to the black clothes, and are out of the store in no time. Shopping with other people is just excruciating because they have to look at all the other colors. Ugh.

3. When you find something you like and it doesn't come in black, it's like your whole world is falling apart.

What do they expect you to do, wear a bright color? No, thanks.

4. Doing laundry is as basic as it gets.


You don't have to worry about bleach or color catchers. You just throw it in the washer with some detergent and you're done. Bam.

5. Once people get to know you they tell you that they were a little scared of you at first.

You don't hate it. How could you not be intimidated by someone dressed head to toe in black? Even if they really are the least intimidating person in the world.

6. You don't have to worry about finding the perfect LBD.

Your closet is filled with LBDs. Every dress you buy is black, and every one of them is perfect. Life is good.

7. You can throw on the first outfit you see and still look as put together as when you spend an hour picking out an outfit.

I'd like to see you colorful clothes wearers throw on the first three articles of clothing you see in your closet. When all your clothes are black you can wear whatever you want and still slay.

8. You don't have to get rid of your clothes a month after you buy them when they go out of style.

Black anything is classic. It will never go out of style.

9. Everything you own can be dressed up or dressed down.

You could wear the same outfit to class and then out for dinner just by changing accessories. Black is appropriate for any occasion.

10. You always look super serious about life.

You could be the least serious person in the world, but with an all-black outfit you look like you're ready to take on the world at any time.

11. You also always look "sad."

People always say you look sad or mad. You're not, you just like dark colors.

12. "What are you wearing?" Texts from friends are always easy to answer.

13. Nothing compares to when the whole squad is matching in all black.

*Slays*

10 Signs You Work In A Restaurant

There's always chaos in the restaurant business.

10 Signs You Work In A Restaurant
Brisanis

Working in the restaurant industry is possibly the most fundamentally challenging occupation I have ever experienced when it comes to hospitality and customer service. When you go to a five-star restaurant you expect the time of your life, a two hour getaway, a walk through another time period (rustic Italy, France, Spain, etc), or simply a honeymoon undergo. What you don't see are the behind the scenes scut work: carrying trays, polishing glassware and silverware, kitchen chaos, the list is endless. Now, I'm not saying being a host, server, or bartender is the worst thing in the whole wide world, there are definitely worse things. But the fact of the matter is that it isn't always sunshine and rainbows. In the two years that I have spent in restaurant and customer service, I have spoken my share of expletives, yelled at kitchen staff, and dealt with not-so-happy guests. It isn't easy to keep a bright and shiny smile on your face when all you want to do is choke every person who walks near you. Anyone who has spent even two weeks working in a restaurant understands the rigor and stress that comes with it. Restaurant culture is a tiny world in and of itself that operates on its own principles and creates its own society. It even has its own language. The sayings "runner", "corner", and "on a bus" wouldn't make sense to anyone otherwise. My mother and I both work in a restaurant and the best advice I can give someone going out to eat is to treat us like people. Yes...believe it or not we are people, people. Say "please" and "thank you", or stack your cleared plates before a busser gets to the table. Trust me, the gesture goes a lot farther than you may think.

So, if you work in a restaurant, you can relate with the following points. If not, check out how the brain of a restaurant service (or any customer service) worker actually works. See if you can identify any crazy weird habits your friends have a tendency to partake in.

One of the scariest things we will ever face in our life is going to college. Many of us move away to a new town, join new organizations, and make new friends. We are expected to study, have a social life, relationships, maybe work, and be healthy. It seems pretty easy to do, and in high school all we wanted to do was graduate and move on to this next chapter of our lives. If you are in high school, here are some things that you can learn from before you get to college. If you have already been through your freshman year of college, hopefully you can relate to the things I have learned in college.
