1,000 Posts!
So here it is! My 1,000th post on Tumblr.
Probably not really anything to celebrate - the majority of what I post is senseless, goofy, or downright stupid crap…but it makes me laugh. And I need the laughter in my life.
Since it is my 1,000th post, I thought I’d take second here and say:
HI, FOLLOWERS! HOW ARE ALL MY CREEPY LURKERS?
But seriously, I hope you get a laugh out of my...

Don’t you just love those mornings when you’re picking out your clothes for the day, thinking, “Oh, this’ll be good.”
And then you get to work and realize in the lighting there that nothing you have on even remotely matches anymore….
Wow. I’m cool.

How To Love Your Life Even if You Hate Your Job →
So, I started work this week. And by “work,” I mean “the job I’m doing to pay my school tuition, but that I by no means enjoy in the slightest.” And I’m apparently not alone at all in employment dispassion. I have a friend who’s been steadily searching for a job for the last eleven months. Still others are waiting tables and letting their bachelor’s degrees gather dust. And some are beyond...

Next thing I know, my brain registers the sound of movement, and I open my eyes to see my boss standing in front of my desk. Before I can even process the fact that I just totally dozed off and have been caught sleeping at my desk, I automatically say:
“I...

You know what? I’m kinda tired of hearing about this kind of crap.
Textbooks are too expensive. They’re way too expensive for students especially considering tuition goes up on an almost consistent basis.
I personally refuse to pay more than $80 for a textbook and that’s only if it’s extremely necessary. Considering I am already paying for the course, I don’t see...
