12 Pieces of Advice From Michael Scott

As someone who loves the TV show, The Office, I couldn't help but put together the best pieces of advice from the wise man himself, Michael Scott. Even if you haven't seen The Office, you can learn a thing or two from him.

1.

Whether it’s ice cream or pizza, it's okay to treat yourself to a little pick-me-up when you're feeling down.


2.

Breathtaking, isn’t it? Who knew Michael Scott had such a way with words. What he means is, try not to hurt people.


3.

In other words, when you’re trying to prove how much you care, do it with love so it’s believable. After all, nothing gets past Michael Scott.

4.

This is one of his more intelligent pieces of advice. What I think he’s trying to say is this; it can take a long time to find someone who is right for you, but eventually when the right person comes along, it’ll all be worth it.


5.

We have all said something that we immediately regretted, and unfortunately you can’t take those words back. But you can learn from it, and be more mindful of what you say. Great advice, Mr. Scott.


6.

Here’s what I think he’s trying to say: make presents meaningful. It’s not always about how much money you spend that makes a present special.


7.

Now don't let this scare you; he just means it’s always nice to have someone who loves you, even if it scares them.


8.

Who doesn’t love a good baseball metaphor? Michael’s counting skills may not be top-notch, but the message behind this is a home run; don’t let others take advantage of you.


9.

Sometimes we stutter and fumble on our words when we’re trying to get something off our chest. But have no fear, you’ll find your way.


10.

Dream big. Don’t settle for the small stuff. Nobody likes the small stuff. (“That’s what she said.” –Michael Scott)


11.

It doesn’t take a salesperson to understand this wise piece of advice; not everything in life has to happen in order.

12.

There are times in our lives when we get stuck and don’t know the way out. Don’t be afraid to admit you’re stuck. If Michael Scott can do it, so can you.

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. I mean, really, what's the point in entering a relationship with someone if you don't know whether or not you're compatible on a very basic level?

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.
