Every summer it seems to be the same thing. You're working a summer job while practically everyone else is studying abroad. So the same stream of thoughts run through your head.

No, it's totally fine. I would much rather be working and earning money.

I'm not even the slightest bit jealous. I'll be making bank all summer.

*Scrolling through Instagram.*

*Sees everyone having the time of their life while studying abroad.*

Yeah, my cubicle has a great view too.

Okay, nobody cares that you're traveling across Europe.

Are these people even in class?

Whatever. I'm just as happy here back home.

If I see one more picture of someone studying abroad, I'm going to throw my phone across the room.

Only because I'm having a much better time than them.

They should be jealous of me.

I have Taco Bell here. They are stuck with random foreign food.

Who cares if they have the ability to take a train to different countries in one weekend.

I can binge-watch an entire show on Netflix in one weekend. I'm the lucky one.

Why travel the world when you can earn money sitting in a cubicle?

Plus they had to sit on a plane for hours and hours to get over there. Not comfortable at all.

Oh. They get to explore a new country every week? Must be nice.

I'm fine, really. I'm totally fine. I love just chilling at home all summer.

Why don't they just move there if it's so great?

I swear they aren't even learning anything. What a waste. (Just kidding, that actually sounds like a dream.)

Okay, honestly I'm seething with envy right now.

Can't wait to hear about everyone's wonderful time studying abroad... not.

But seriously. If I see one more Facebook update or another Snapchat story of someone having the time of her life, living it up in Europe, I'm going to stab my eyes out.
