8 Times Jim and Pam Restored Our Faith In Relationships

Jim and Pam have been relationship goals from day one. They're one of the most adorable couples to ever grace our television screens. From Jim's perseverance in waiting for Pam, to his speech at the rehearsal dinner, to any and everything he's ever done, Jim has been every girl's dream man; and we've all been so, so envious of Pam for snagging his heart. They've shown us that long distance relationships can work, that no couple can have too much pride to go to counseling and that you should set out to marry your best friend. Here are some of the best moments in Jim and Pam's relationship.

1. Obviously, when Jim finally tells Pam how he feels


This was a big step for Jim, being that Pam was still with Roy and that telling someone you’re in love with them has to be completely nerve-wracking in itself.

2. Then, when Pam calls off the wedding with Roy

It was obvious from day one that these two were totally in love, and when it looked like Pam was really going to go through with the wedding, she called it off and restored our faith in Jam.

3. When they prove to everyone that you can make a long distance relationship work


Pam goes off to art school in New York, and Jim stays in Scranton. They have their doubts about the distance and they reassure each other that they’ll be able to make it. They spend an entire day on the phone via Bluetooth and prove to the world that if you really want it, the distance can work.

4. When Jim reassures Pam that she isn’t only enough for him, that she’s everything for him


In season 9, Jim and Pam go through a rough patch in their marriage, and Pam begins to feel like she is not enough for Jim. In total Jim Halpert super-romantic-make-you-bawl-your-eyes-our fashion, he asks the film crew to compile a DVD of all of their greatest moments together and gives it to Pam along with the note he had written to give to her explaining how he felt about her while she was still with Roy.

5. When Jim proposed at a gas station in the middle of a rainstorm


He didn’t go all out for the proposal, which makes it all the better. It shows the simplicity of their relationship, that they’re just two plain people who love each other very, very much.

6. When they go to marriage counseling


This shows that no one is too big for counseling. It showed viewers that no relationship is perfect, and that every couple has their weaknesses and things they need to work on.

7. When Jim admits to Karen that he still has feelings for Pam


This was another big step for Jim, admitting to his current girlfriend that he still has feelings for a girl he claimed to have moved on from. At this point in the series, Jim and Pam were barely even on speaking terms; they were feigning happiness for each other in Jim’s new relationship and Pam’s return to single life. It was clear to viewers that feigning this happiness was killing both of them. When Karen just comes out and asks if Jim still has feelings for Pam and he says yes, viewers everywhere cheered with joy because this meant that they were finally going to get what they always wanted.

8. When Jim gives Pam the teapot


This teapot represents everything Jim and Pam are. At this point they were still just friends, but this pot is the ultimate sign of everything they represent. This pot is filled with little inside jokes and various memories they’ve made through their friendship. When he finally gives it to her and he sees how happy she is, we see that infamous Jim Halpert grin and it shows how much he truly loves her.

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

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.
