If you have to work during the holidays, it can be an absolute nightmare. It's busy, it's crowded, and people can get really mean. All you want is to be home with your family and enjoying the holiday. To all my fellow holiday retail peeps, the craziness is almost over, and we'll get through this. To cheer you up, here's twenty Spongebob gifs that perfectly describe the "interesting" experience that is working during the holidays.

1. When your manager explains how busy the holidays will be...as if your experienced self doesn't know. 

2. When there are several holiday displays all over the store...and you don't even know where they are. 

3. When you're asked to work overtime, but you really need the money...

4. ...Or when you don't need the overtime and you hope someone else volunteers. 

5. When your boss is actually very appreciative of your hard work. 

6. When you actually get to leave early on Christmas Eve. 

7. Or when your boss actually lets you have off on Christmas Eve. 

8. When your boss asks "Who wants to work the day after Christmas?" 

9. Then there's the Christmas-loving coworkers who try to shower the holiday spirit onto the Scrooges. 

10. But those extra holiday hours are pretty nice, too. 

11. When a customer asks for a product you ran out of because your manager never ordered it. 

12. Only for the customer to be furious with you even though it's not your fault. 

13. When your manager asks you to something...while you're in the middle of doing something. 

14. When customers are being annoyingly indecisive. 

15. The attitude you have when you have to deal with the last-minute Christmas Eve rush. 

16. When your coworker gives you one of those awesome holiday treat bags. 

17. When a customer asks for twenty party platters to be picked up the next morning. 

18. When customers complain about how "expensive" the products are...even after you tell them you're not in control of pricing. 

19. When a customer is messing up the perfect display you worked so hard on. 

20. And what you WANT to do to the douchebag customers.

A three-and-a-half-hour runtime. Nine Eras. Eleven outfit changes. Three surprise songs. Zero breaks. One unforgettable evening. In the past century, no other performer has put on an electric performance quite like Taylor Swift, surpassing her fans ‘wildest dreams’. It is the reason supporters keep coming back to her shows each year. Days later, I’m still in awe of the spectacle ‘Miss Americana’ puts on every few days in a new city. And, like one of Taylor’s exes, has me smiling as I reminisce about the memories of the night we spent together.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
