What It's Like To Be In Love

If you've ever been in true love you'll know exactly what I'm talking about. There's that one person who drives you absolutely crazy. In good ways and bad. You fight over the dumbest stuff, but at the end of the day there's no one else you'd rather get in bed next to every night. You feel so loved, supported, and important. They make you feel good about yourself. They never tear you down. They make you feel beautiful on your worst days. They make you laugh even when you aren't sure you even remember how to smile.

When you're in love you'll do anything just so to see that one person smile. You'd drop everything just to make sure that their needs were met. You fight for them every day. No fight is too big or lasts too long. After a fight, you go back ten minutes later and it's like the whole thing never happened. The feelings you have never go away. They just keep getting stronger and stronger every single day.

You hear a love song and suddenly it's not cheesy and stupid anymore. You think of that person and smile. Maybe even shed a tear because you realize how lucky you are to have someone like them in your life. Any time something bad happens, you run to them like they are your shelter. You need them more than you need air. You can't get enough of them. The thought about them being with anyone else except you makes you physically sick.

They are home. They put your heart at ease. Things with them seem simple. When all hell breaks loose, they are the one you run to. You don't have to think about anything except the fact that you know that you are a hundred percent safe when you are with them. You are safe from physical harm, mental stress, and emotional pain. They are your sanctuary. They are your assurance that there is still some good in this chaotic world. They are your rock. The one stable thing you have. They are your home.

With them, you feel like you can conquer the entire world. No task is too big and no problem is too complicated with them by your side. Superman has nothing on you when you're in love. You'll do anything to make sure they are safe too.

But the most amazing thing about being in love is they make you realize that being in love is as great as it seems in the movies. Yes, you have your downfalls and fights but the love you receive and give is worth so much more than any of the negative things you could ever endure in your relationship.

Being in love with the right one will be one of the best things that will ever happen to you. I promise.

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

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…

Daydreams, the savior of our life in class. Every type of student in the classroom does it at least once, but most cases it is an everyday event, especially in that boring class -- you know the one. But what are we thinking while we are daydreaming?

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.

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.
