12 Moments When Creed Bratton Was the Best Character on "The Office"

Some watch "The Office" to see Michael Scott constantly make a fool of himself, or insert himself into awkward situations (90 percent of the time he is the one creating those awkward moments). Or they watch it for Pam and Jim's friendship/relationship, and later tweet how they are #lifegoalz. Also, Jim and Dwight's constant prank war is always entertaining. (For example: stapler in a mound of Jello, megadesk, dressing up like each other, etc.). Why do I watch The Office and consider it my all-time favorite show? I watch it for all of these reasons, but my favorite character is one who is most often overlooked. What is his job in the Scranton branch of Dunder Mifflin Paper Company? No one actually knows, including his boss, Michael Scott. This man goes by the name: Creed Bratton.

Why, do you ask is Creed my favorite character on "The Office"? I am so glad you asked. Here are 12 reasons why Creed Bratton was and will always be the best character on "The Office":

1. He is a boss at cartwheeling.

He was probably a gymnast as a child.

2. He has a vast imagination.

He likes to dabble in world of make-believe.

3. He appreciates the little things in life.

For some reason, the "little thing" that he is appreciating is a brand new, used chair.

4. He is a modern day philosopher.

Creed wants to share his knowledge with the world, by means of a website that is actually a Word document his co-worker created for him. But he doesn't have to know that.

5. He is always the calm one of the office.

If a small fire arises in the office due to someone leaving a cheese pita in the toaster-oven for too long, or an ex-fiancé storms into the office, ready to beat up his ex's new boyfriend, Creed is the one that will be the rock in a frightening situation.

6. He is single and ready to mingle.

He has mastered the art that is flirting (see above).

7. He is a goal-oriented man.

8. He is always up for an adventure. And by an adventure, I mean stealing things.


...but it always comes at a price.

9. He encourages others to do their best.

He is the supportive one in all of his friend groups.

10. He is truly one in a million.

11. He knows what it's like to be a young adult.

12. He is utterly photogenic.

For mug shots mostly, but photogenic nevertheless.

Obviously, Creed Bratton is the life of the Dunder Mifflin party.

Sadly, "The Office" is no more, but it will forever be in our hearts. And also in a drawer under my TV back home, in the form of DVDs.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

Whether you met your new love interest online, through mutual friends, or another way entirely, you'll definitely want to know what you're getting into.

Consider these 21 questions to ask in the talking stage when getting to know that new guy or girl you just started talking to:

Challah vs. Easter Bread: A Delicious Dilemma

Is there really such a difference in Challah bread or Easter Bread?

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.
