7 Ways Dwight Schrute Perfectly Described Your Life

If you're not familiar with the television show "The Office," you're missing out. At the fictional paper company, Dunder Mifflin, where the show takes place, Dwight Schrute is the Assistant to the Regional Manger. He has won numerous awards for being the company's top salesman and even mentions in one episode that he wants to be buried in the company building. He may be a successful sales person but lacks common sense and social skills (as seen with his interactions with desk mate, Jim Halpert). Despite his little quirks, Dwight has his moments where he can be very wise. Here are seven situations where Dwight perfectly describes your life.

1. When some say there are no stupid questions:

We all have those moments when we ask stupid questions and we're told there are no "stupid questions." Dwight would agree but would argue that there are stupid people who ask those questions.

2. When you try to describe yourself on a business card but are limited to a certain amount of space:

Sometimes acronyms of your name are the best way to describe yourself to a potential employer. It worked out well for Dwight (then again, he is a paper salesmen).

3. When you're in denial that you're stressed out:

Pretending nothing stresses you out might not be the best strategy to deal with stress. Maybe take a walk, get some ice cream, or watch The Office (it would provide you with tons of laughs and make your day a little brighter).

4. Your feelings when someone tells you an event for class or your organization is mandatory:

Think this perfectly sums it up.

5. When you're in a boring class and your professor wants your undivided attention:

Although you may not enjoy the class, you still have to give the professor your undivided attention (even if you think they don't deserve it).

6. Your response when someone ask you if you're okay after you have bad day:

Sometimes we don't want to admit we're upset. Dwight's solution to this would be to fake it until you make it.

7. When you ask a friend who a celebrity is but get their name wrong:

Although Dwight may be a little quirky, he can perfectly describe any situation you may come across.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
