You Think You Run The World

Trust Me, You DON'T

Let me start off by saying college is full of a lot of fake people. People that will act like they are your best friend one second then completely hate your guts the next. Well let me tell you, you mean nothing to me, you never have and you never will.

I have dealt with stuff like this my whole life and it has never effected me, so why would it now? Oh wait, it doesn’t. You think I don’t notice all the dirty looks behind my back, the fact that you include everyone else in stuff but me, I don’t care. When being in a group you love to point out things that I am not involved in and I just sit there and laugh. If you would see how pathetic you are making yourself look you might understand but that’s how you are, you may never learn. You also may never learn that it doesn’t really affect people how you want it to, people learn to grow without you. Trust me I don’t need you to survive college like others think that they do. People think that you are "Queen Bee", but trust me they will all soon learn how you treat others and how it will “effect” them in the future.

I’ve grown to know that there is one person in my life that isn't even family who treats me like the world. I don’t need your fakeness, the constant talking behind my back. Everyone tells me what you do and say and I’m glad they do because honestly it’s quite entertaining. I go days without talking to you, and if I do talk to you it's only a friendly “Hi” in passing in the hall.

You talk to others in ways that you think I can’t understand but trust me I know what you're saying, it’s obvious. I’m glad you feel that way. Like come on, let’s be real you’re only hurting yourself in this type of situation because once everyone realizes what you are doing they will all turn their back on you and go on living their lives.

I’ve learned in my 19 years that I don’t need tons of friends, I have a family that is behind me and the one friend I need. I may not talk to her everyday but heck she means more to me than you ever will. Will you ever have that one friend you can always count on? I doubt it.

I may have talked to you in the past but I have never considered you anyone that I would go to lean on for anything. I’m my own person, the person that doesn't need you holding me back from everything I plan to do with my life.

11 Things Summer Nannies Can Relate To

There are plenty of obstacles that come when taking care of kids, but it's a very rewarding experience.

As a college student, being a nanny over the summer is both enjoyable and challenging. Underneath the seemingly perfect trips to the pool or countless hours spent playing Monopoly are the obstacles that only nannies will understand. Trading in your valuable summer vacation in return for three months spent with a few children less than half your age may seem unappealing, but so many moments make it rewarding. For my fellow summer nannies out there, I know you can relate.

There are a lot of really easy, common names in the U.S. and while many of those simple names have different spellings, most of the time, pronunciation is not an issue that those people need to worry about. However, others are not as fortunate and often times give up on corrections after a while. We usually give an A+ for effort. So, as you could probably imagine, there are a few struggles with having a name that isn’t technically English. Here are just a few…

Daydreaming

day·dream (ˈdāˌdrēm/): a series of pleasant thoughts that distract one's attention from the present.

Daydreams, the savior of our life in class. Every type of student in the classroom does it at least once, but most cases it is an everyday event, especially in that boring class -- you know the one. But what are we thinking while we are daydreaming?

Puerto Ricans. They are very proud people and whether they were born on the island or born in the United States by Puerto Rican parent(s). It gets even better when they meet another fellow Puerto Rican or Latino in general. You’ll know quickly if they are Puerto Rican whether the flag is printed somewhere on their person or whether they tell you or whether the famous phrase “wepa!” is said.

If it hurts now, it'll hurt again. Not because you're gullible or naive, only because you fall fast, hard, and you do it every time.

We fall each and every time with the complete and utter confidence that someone will be there to catch us. Now that person we SWORE we were never going to fall for has our hearts, and every time we see them our palms start sweating. The butterflies in our stomach start to soar and our hearts are entirely too close to bursting out of our chests.
