Have you ever read blogs and wanted to know what it was like to write them yourself? Odyssey gives you that opportunity and also, if you write through a community, you can meet new people who have similar interests as you. That's what motivated me to start writing for Odyssey and what I hope motivates you to start as well!

Do you have a love for writing?

If you answered yes to that question, continue reading. Personally, I have always loved to write. I took extra writing classes in high school. I love the feeling of writing and escaping from reality, at least for a little bit.

If you feel the same way or even just like writing and want your writing to be seen by others and heard, I recommend writing for Odyssey. There are little to no limits about what you can write and publish onto Odyssey.

For example, you can write about anything between Lifestyle to Health and Wellness to just random posts discussing any topic that you feel passionate about. The only thing you really can't do is say anything discriminating or use racial slurs, but that's obvious.

That's one of the things I love most about Odyssey. You can really write about anything you want and you're bound to find people who have the same interests and read your article!

You can make friends through Odyssey!

Usually, a lot of creators for Odyssey are members of different communities through their universities. For example, my university has a community and I'm a member of it. If you're in college and you want to start writing for Odyssey, try and find out who the President is and how to sign up. Within your community, you have the opportunity to make friends with the people you are in the community with. It is a great way to make friends with people who share the same interests as you!

If what I wrote about interests you, I highly recommend you sign up for Odyssey, you won't regret it!

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!
