It's a cold Friday morning, you're all bundled up ready to face the cold. You turn on your favorite Christmas playlist as you get ready to walk to Starbucks before class.The snow is falling, the trees are glistening, and it's officially time to start jamming out to Christmas music (if you haven't started already). If you love Christmas as much as me then you probably started listening to Christmas music months ago. However, a new amazing Christmas playlist always brightens everyone's day. Here is a list of 45 Christmas songs that will make this cold Christmas season even better.
The infamous RBF is something I have and am known for. It’s kind of exhausting to be asked if you're okay all the time or being told to smile more. Girls with RBF get judged to be mean and rude much quicker than the girl who is always smiling. It’s true and just plain natural for someone who is generally smiling all the time to come off as more trustworthy and I've gotten used to it. I used to think that having a Resting Bitch Face was only a bad thing until I realized that just like anything else, it also has its perks. Having a permafrown with a piercing look comes with great power.
1. Your face hides all emotions and sticks to a look that could burn a hole through someone.
Sometimes you have to work for things, other times you can just glide through your day with no bothers.
2.It makes people think you have higher expectations and standards.
Meaning that when you go to get your hair cut or your nails done, the people that are working on you, try a little harder on you than the girl that’s smiling all the time. Why? They’re nervous of what could come from messing up.
3.Your smile holds a lot more meaning than the girl who walks around with a pleasant grin.
This also makes you better at communicating since you yourself have to try extra hard to make anything you say seem genuine especially when you're trying to say something nice. You become more self aware and teach yourself how not to let your face or someone else's face define something but rather let the words you or they say hold the meaning.
5.You're as intimidating as a girl can get and they expect you to be a bitch.
People are less likely to take advantage and walk all over you thanks to your natural face.
6.You never get stopped by strangers asking for directions or guys catcalling.
No one bothers the girl that’s got a permanent icy look on her face. They'd much rather bother the girl who looks too nice and approachable.
7.You come off as more confident.
You look like you always know what you're doing since your face almost always has that cool exterior. It's perfect to become the HBIC.
8.Your face knows of no such things as “smile lines” or “crows feet.”
You'll have better skin in the long run and always look younger.
9.The best part of having a Resting Bitch Face is that you're in the same club as Blair Waldorf, Anna Kendrick, Kristen Stewart, Queen Elizabeth, and Kanye West.
To all those girls out there that consider an RBF a curse, don't. Your face holds a lot of power and you get to experience things that that the girl that's always smiling doesn't get to know about. Take advantage of your moody stare and don't apologize for it.
We all know that Parks and Recreation is one of the greatest shows ever to air on TV. As we watched every episode, we all found a piece of us in each character (even Jerry). From the moment we met the pit, to the time we saw it flourish into a beautiful park, we all had developed a little bit of Pawnee, Indiana in our hearts.
1. When someone asks you why you're so sensitive and you start crying, because you have a big heart and cry at everything.
So your teacher assigned you a colossal load of homework. You know the warning that comes with that: “You can’t leave this to the last minute!” Suddenly, you have a choice- one that will determine your fate until the assignment is due. Will you get started right away and spread the work out over several weeks, or will you hear your instructor’s word of caution and think
If you're among the former group, well props to you.
You’ve achieved what many of us never will: organization and probably a good night’s sleep. But that’s alright! Caffeine exists for a reason, and if it’s not to help desperate people push through to their next-day-deadlines, than does it really have a purpose?
So you leave that monstrous assignment off until the night before it’s due, and now you’re looking at a VERY late night at the desk. But have no fear, friend, for you are not alone in this.
When you find yourself staring in the face of certain all-nighters, follow these simple steps.
1. Don’t Panic.
You’ve got, like, 12 hours to the deadline.That’s PLENTY of time! Don’t stress yourself out worrying, that will only make it worse.
2. Make yourself comfortable.
You won’t get anything good accomplished if you are uncomfortable. Take a shower, find the comfiest pajamas you own, get some food, prepare your hot beverage of choice and find the perfect workspace. Don’t worry if this step seems to take a disproportionate amount of time: you need it. Trust me:
Alright, it’s work time. Reread the original assignment and double check that you’ve got the requirements right (try not to freak out that there is actually an eight-page requirement instead of the six you were expecting). Find your starting point.
Well, crap. You’ve got nothing. A thorough, detailed search of everything in your memory pertaining to this topic has turned up blank. Ok, don’t panic QUITE yet. Reread your notes, maybe there’s something helpful there.
OK, now you can freak out. Really let loose here; do whatever it is you do when the world is crashing. Cry, yell or punch something (I’d recommend a pillow and not, say, a wall). Just really let it all out. Let out all of those raw, unbridled emotions.
6. Get it together!
Ok, clearly, crying is not helping very much. From here you have two options. Option one: email your teacher begging for an extension and hope they show you mercy or crank out this assignment. If you choose option one, I applaud you. Have an excellent night sleep.
You’ve got this. Just start working, really fast. The quality doesn’t have to be great- at this point, your clock is probably telling you it is an ungodly hour of the night, and any reasonable person is asleep. This is not the time for award-winning work: now is the time for quantity over quality.
8. Finish the thing.
Ok, so it’s not your greatest work. It probably isn’t worth an A, and it’s definetly not going to earn you any extra points from your teacher. But it’s DONE. And that’s most of the battle. Now walk away like the badass you are.
Whether you love them or hate them, it's undeniable the Kardashian/ Jenner family has built an enormous business empire. Ranging from apps, fashion lines, boutiques, beauty products, books, television shows, etc. this bunch has shown they are insane business moguls. Here are seven reasons why the Kardashian/ Jenner family should be applauded for their intelligent business tactics.
The Kardashian/ Jenner family is praised for the enormous amount of reality television series that are produced surrounding their lives. Viewers seem to crave new television shows behind the intriguing Kardashian/ Jenner bunch, considering the Kardashian clan has been featured in approximately 12 television series. Regardless of how many haters this family may have, their shows have shown tremendous success. Their most famous series documenting the family's life since 2007, Keeping Up With The Kardashians(KUWTK), premieres on E! Network. Season 13 of KUWTK is said to premiere March 12th at 9 p.m. on E!, so stay tuned!
2. Fashion and Beauty Gurus
Nineteen-year-old Kylie Jenner is hands-down known to be one of the most successful beauty gurus. Kylie Cosmetics, launched in 2016, has shown an insane amount of success. Kylie Lip Kits are known to sell out within minutes of being launched onto her website. Fans follow Kylie's business closely, with her accustoming her new lines and colors to what the customers desire. This is one of Kylie's many smart business tactics, pleasing the customers, in turn, gains Kylie more revenue for her business. Along with beauty success, the three Kardashian sisters, Kim, Kourtney, and Khloe, have created their fashion boutique DASH. When the boutique first opened it struggled. However, the sisters rose it immensely, with the store being extremely successful to this day with three locations in West Hollywood, Miami Beach, and the SoHo District in New York City. KENDALL+KYLIE is also another successful fashion line with clothes being sold in popular stores like Pac Sun, Neiman Marcus, and Top Shop. Their lines are also shown in many fashion shows, boosting their credibility in the fashion world.
3. Apps
Kim Kardashian's game app is said to have brought in over $100 million since it's launch in 2014. The app is free to download, however, players can purchase "extras" in the game which is where most of the revenue derives from. Kim constantly keeps the game up-to-date which is an intelligent business tactic because it keeps players intrigued, and feeling as if they're living the true Kardashian life. After the extreme success of Kim's game app, each sister created their personal apps that can be downloaded in the iTunes store for a $2.99 monthly subscription fee. Each sister's app emphasizes their expertise in the fashion, beauty, travel, and fitness worlds.
4. Social Media Tactics
The Kardashian/ Jenner family has accumulated over approximately 404.7 million followers on Instagram and over approximately 154.93 million followers on Twitter. These business moguls thrive off social media techniques in building their business empire - which is smart. These sisters make thousands of dollars for one promotional tweet or Instagram post. Constantly updating their accounts keeps fans intrigued and up-to-date on their latest products/ endeavors.
5. Method Behind Parasocial Interaction
Parasocial interaction (PSI) is a communication technique where celebrities endorse themselves, and fans feel a connection of some kind to that specific celebrity. PSI is promoted in the Kardashian/ Jenner family because they endorse themselves on their social media accounts so well that fans begin to feel a connection with this family. This makes it easier for the Kardashian/ Jenners to promote their products and businesses in a not-so-pushy way.
6. Failed Endeavors
Failure is the first step to success. Although this family is praised for their unimaginable success, they have failed plenty along their way to fame. Talkshows, books and fashion lines haven't made the revenue expected and haters constantly attempt to tear down this family's fame, however, the Kardashian/ Jenner family still stands strong. In the end, they are true business moguls, entrepreneurs, and content creators who have created an insane empire.
7. Net Worth
The Kardashian/ Jenner family is stated to have a net worth of over approximately $300 million. Kim leads the family with her net worth accounting for over $100 million with the littlest sister, Kylie Jenner, creeping up the ladder. Numbers don't lie. These sisters truly have built an enormous business empire.
If I have learned one thing in my lifetime, it is that friends are a privilege. No one is required to give you their company and yet there is some sort of shared connection that keeps you together. And from that friendship, you may even find yourself lucky enough to have a few more friends, thus forming a group. Here are just a few signs that prove your current friend group is the ultimate friend group.
1. When you see each other after a hiatus it is like no time has passed.
Regardless of what you may have gone through, nothing can change the banter and personal communication you and your friends share. Nothing feels awkward or forced because you are having too much fun catching up!
2. You plan your outings around each other's schedules.
Your friend's work schedules or class schedules are memorized like the back of your hand. They are your priority, and you will do anything you can to get them to join you on adventures when it is convenient to do so.
3. You say 'I love you' on the phone.
Yes, you may say it in real life too, but saying it after a phone call means it has become a customary for you to validate your appreciate for one other. Like a significant other or family member, you feel the desire to express your love at the end of a conversation.
No matter what you do together, you always have a good time. Why? Because your friends' company is all you need. With the right people, you can make any situation memorable.
5. You share weird inside jokes no one else understands.
And you would like to keep it that way. If you are anything like my friend group, we share a strange family dynamic that has lasted as a running joke forever. No matter what it is, your inside jokes and sly smirks will keep the spirits up for ages.
6. You plan to hang out for a couple hours but end up together the entire day.
So now you just expect it and prepare for a 24-hour long get-together. Naps are often a part of the agenda.
7. The hugs say a thousand words.
Perhaps you do it a little too much, but the hugs you share are always meaningful and comforting. Gotta love those group hugs especially!
8. You go on spontaneous adventures together.
It is where your favorite memories come from. Even though you might not be able to do them as much as you would like, you are always down for a trip, big or small, with the group.
9. You consider each other family.
Because you consider each other family, you treat each other like family. Constant love, constant support, and a tremendous amount of meals spent together.
10. They make you a better person.
It is not a special friend group unless you learn from one another. You had to be selective when choosing your friends and when you did, you felt like they could teach you a thing or two. Their actions influence who you are and you could not be more thankful.
11. You can't imagine life without them.
The very thought scares you and sends your heart racing. Thankfully, the ultimate friend group is right there with you so you never have to second-guess their loyalty. Instead, you can bask in the glory that is your ultimate friend group. #squadgoals.
