For the past two summers I, a 20-year-old girl, have lived with boys.

First and foremost, living with boys as roommates is a lot of fun. Growing up with a sister as my only sibling, it's a completely different lifestyle living with guys.

Boys love to party, you can always count on them to have some sort of beer in the fridge. And they're pretty much always willing to share a few. But, you'll find their beer cans and other trash EVERYWHERE.

You can ask as many times as you want for the boys to do the dishes. They won't. They probably think there's a magic cleaning fairy that comes around...nope, it's the girls. But, they will kill any roach or spider in the house, plus, they'll help you with the heavy lifting (not that the ladies always need it!!).

The toilet seats will never be down. And the little hairs from them shaving their beard will also be all over the sink. It's no worries though, they go down the drain easy enough!

Guys LOVE to grill. Burgers and hot dogs can always be ready when you want them! But cleaning the dishes will be all on you.

Despite the (sometimes but not always) messiness of boys, they're still a lot of FUN!!!! And these boys could likely become your best friends! You can ask the boys for advice on your boy problems and they'll always have a lot to say!

Living with boys is just as fun as living with girls!

They are always up for adventure and fun, and even though they'll see you at your worst sometimes, they don't mind at all! Honestly, it's a great experience living with men, it feels like I have a couple brothers!

11 Things Summer Nannies Can Relate To

There are plenty of obstacles that come when taking care of kids, but it's a very rewarding experience.

As a college student, being a nanny over the summer is both enjoyable and challenging. Underneath the seemingly perfect trips to the pool or countless hours spent playing Monopoly are the obstacles that only nannies will understand. Trading in your valuable summer vacation in return for three months spent with a few children less than half your age may seem unappealing, but so many moments make it rewarding. For my fellow summer nannies out there, I know you can relate.

There are a lot of really easy, common names in the U.S. and while many of those simple names have different spellings, most of the time, pronunciation is not an issue that those people need to worry about. However, others are not as fortunate and often times give up on corrections after a while. We usually give an A+ for effort. So, as you could probably imagine, there are a few struggles with having a name that isnā€™t technically English. Here are just a fewā€¦

Puerto Ricans. They are very proud people and whether they were born on the island or born in the United States by Puerto Rican parent(s). It gets even better when they meet another fellow Puerto Rican or Latino in general. Youā€™ll know quickly if they are Puerto Rican whether the flag is printed somewhere on their person or whether they tell you or whether the famous phrase ā€œwepa!ā€ is said.
