Mirror, Mirror on the Wall

Who do you see in the mirror?

Mirror, Mirror on the Wall

Do you give in when you see a mirror or take a picture? Do you only see flaws or do you see yourself how others see you? Do not instantly feel belittled when you look in the mirror. See yourself with your beauty, both inner and outer. The first thing all people need to know is self-confidence. If they are confident in themselves, whether it is looks or an action, they will be happier.

Often times when people look in the mirror and only see imperfections. If people fixate on their imperfections they will only see those imperfections and not their true beauty. Many people have quotes about beauty and not believing the mirror. One person is Chris Butler and he wrote one of my favorite quotes. He wrote the quote, “mirror, mirror on the wall, I’ll always get up after I fall. Whether I run, walk, or have to crawl, I’ll set my goals and achieve them all.” I love this quote because it does not mean we are going to get up and bounce back from failing right away. It shows that things take time to heal and recover from. Whether it takes an individual an hour, a week or even a few months to recover from their failure.

Everyone hits bumps in the road but how they handle it shows their character. If people were to let every negative thing people say about them effect them, people would be nowhere near as strong as they are. If every girl were to let every negative comment effect her, they would not be as strong as they are. Women get their beauty from their confidence. In fairy tales, Disney princesses turn to a mirror and ask who is the fairest of them all. Part of me thinks fairy tales should not have princesses rely on a mirror for its opinion. Frozen made it so people knew all princesses were not perfect. Part of the movie shows Anna waking up with her hair a mess. This is probably my favorite scene of the movie because it shows that not everyone wakes up flawless. People wake up with their hair messy and maybe even have make up left on from the night before.

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!
