At some point in our lives, most of us will be working in a corporate building or government office. I am currently a college student trying out the feel of working in an office setting. For my internship, I am working in an office building and as much as I love helping the public and doing easy tasks, there are a few things that annoy me when working in an office building. I'm sure Nene Leakes would have the same pet peeves as I do if she ever worked. Here are some of the pet peeves I deal with on the daily.

1. Starting at 9 a.m. and sitting at your desk for hours but it's only 9:02.

Giphy

Chileeee at this point you wonder why you agreed to these hours.

2. When the phone rings and no one in the office wants to answer it so YOU have to.

Giphy

And then you have to deal with someone yelling about something they can easily fix themselves. You start using the office greeting even on your personal phone.

3. Putting food in the office fridge and someone eats it...

Giphy

There's just certain things you just don't do. You're asking to get slapped (well, after I punch out).

4. That one coworker who INSISTS you guys should “hang out sometime.”

Giphy

Oh no sis, outside of work, we don't know each other. Especially if I don't want you seeing my Instagram account.

5. When your coworkers you don’t get along with screw everything up and your boss yells at them.

Giphy

*Sits in cubicle laughing silently while my coworker is getting blasted and on the verge of being fired*

6. Punching in at 9 a.m. and people are already walking in asking for help.

Giphy

Just because I start at 9 a.m. doesn't mean I'm physically ready…please come in at least 10…..or closing.

7. “Where are you going for lunch sis?”

Giphy

OH NAHHHH lunch breaks are my own personal time, don't bother me or show me pictures of your cats Susan.

8. “Do you have Instagram or Snapchat?”

Giphy

Now they're going to know the real reason why I call out sick.

9. When it's 4:59 p.m. and you're getting ready to leave and someone asks for help.

Giphy

Now's your time to run out...

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.
