A Thank You To My Favorite Coworkers

I couldn't have ever survived the nine to five life without you!

A Thank You To My Favorite Coworkers

When it comes to your job, I truly believe the people you work with can make or break it for you. I mean you are spending the majority of your time with them after all.

Really though if you think about it, you see your coworkers all day long for most days of the week, and for most people that is usually more than they see their friends and family.

How much we have to work to make a living is absolutely insane if you ask me... but you just have to do it I guess, so let's get this bread, am I right?

I lucked out when it came to my most recent job. I had some of the best coworkers I have ever had, and now I truly consider them friends. Which is percisely why it made leaving the company so difficult.

I will definitely miss our daily lunch club, making fun of the boys, and helping to build each other up in the workplace.

The company was small with only about thirteen employees, nine of them being men, so us ladies really stuck together.

We also bonded over all of the dumb stuff the men would say and do, and honestly is there a better way to bond with your coworkers? We got daily entertainment by observing and analyzing the boys, and it was always commical.

When we weren't laughing about the guys though, we were working hard and helping each other grow. I was seriously so blessed to be surrounded by some of the most hardworking and dedicated women I have ever met.

Especially with being a recent college graduate, they really turned into some of my biggest role models and people I would love to be like in my career.

I will truly miss all of the laughs we had, bonding over The Office, and keeping each other updated on all of the recent news and scandals. I really wish I could pick up my job and take it with me in my next stage of life, but that's not how it works so I guess it's goodbye.

With coworkers like them, it will be hard to start over somewhere new. I know we will see each other again though and we can catch up on all the craziness that's gone down since I left. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for being not only the best coworkers but some of my fondest friendships.

This is for the girls who have dealt with an emotionally, mentally, physically or verbally abusive father.

The ones who have grown up with a false lens of what love is and how relationships should be. The ones who have cried themselves to sleep wondering why he hurts you and your family so much. This is for all the girls who fall in love with broken boys that carry baggage bigger than their own, thinking it's their job to heal them because you watched your mother do the same.

Blair Waldorf Quote
"DESTINY IS FOR LOSERS. IT'S JUST A STUPID EXCUSE TO WAIT FOR THINGS TO HAPPEN INSTEAD OF MAKING THEM HAPPEN." - BLAIR WALDORF.

The world stopped in 2012 when our beloved show "Gossip Girl" ended. For six straight years, we would all tune in every Monday at 9:00 p.m. to see Upper Eastside royalty in the form of a Burberry headband clad Blair Waldorf. Blair was the big sister that we all loved to hate. How could we ever forget the epic showdowns between her and her frenemy Serena Van Der Woodsen? Or the time she banished Georgina Sparks to a Christian summer camp? How about that time when she and her girls took down Bart Bass? Blair is life. She's taught us how to dress, how to be ambitious, and most importantly, how to throw the perfect shade.

too tired to care

We've all been there. From move-in day to the first finals week in college, your first term is an adventure from start to finish. In honor of college decisions coming out recently, I want to recap some of the most common experiences college freshmen experience.

1. The awkward hellos on move-in day.

You're moving your stuff onto your floor, and you will encounter people you don't know yet in the hallway. They live on your floor, so you'll awkwardly smile and maybe introduce yourself. As you walk away, you will wonder if they will ever speak to you again, but don't worry, there's a good chance that you will make some great friends on your floor!

Recently I completed my freshman year of college, and boy, what an experience. It was a completely new learning environment and I can't believe how much I learned. In an effort to save time, here are the ten biggest lessons I learned from my first year of college.

1. Everyone is in the same boat

For me, the scariest part of starting school was that I was alone, that I wouldn't be able to make any friends and that I would stick out. Despite being told time and time again that everyone had these same feelings, it didn't really click until the first day when I saw all the other freshman looking as uneasy and uncomfortable as me. Therefore, I cannot stress this enough, everyone is feeling as nervous as you.
