Winter Break Countdown

I know I begged for you- but is it over yet?

Winter Break Countdown

So it begins, the countdown for winter break to finally be over. Fighting with your little sister and sticking to a curfew has become old and you're sleeping until noon- not because you’re exhausted but because there’s not much else to do.

Going to the grocery store in your hometown is more like wearing a ton of layers and the biggest hood you own to avoid being seen by anyone you went to highschool with. (though it never works and it’s usually your second grade teacher- mrs. scott I love you but how the hell do you STILL remember me?)

And lets only briefly mention the hell considered finding employment- begging your old job to take you back, trying to find odd ends or stretching your savings becomes harder than it is in actual school. I didn’t know a coffee and a tank of gas emptied my savings account??

So whether it's 15, 20, or 30 days until you go back- (yes I know you know the exact number) try to tolerate what you can about the situation you're in. I mean hey, at least it’s not finals week again.

Bob's Burgers
Adult Swim

Bob's Burgers is arguably one of the best and most well-written shows on tv today. That, and it's just plain hilarious. From Louise's crazy antics to Tina's deadpan self-confidence, whether they are planning ways to take over school or craft better burgers, the Belchers know how to have fun. They may not be anywhere close to organized or put together, but they do offer up some wise words once and awhile.

We're in college, none of us actually have anything together. In fact, not having anything together is one of our biggest stressors. However, there's a few little things that we do ever so often that actually make us feel like we have our lives together.

1. Making yourself dinner

And no this does not include ramen or Annie's Mac & Cheese. Making a decent meal for yourself is one of the most adult things you can do living on campus. And the food is much better than it would be at the dining hall.

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.
