13 Struggles Of Packing For A Family Vacation, As Told By 'Bob's Burgers' Characters

In This Article:

Everyone loves a good family vacation, but everyone also knows that packing for a trip is the hardest part of it. You don't know what the weather forecast will be. What if it's cold and you don't have enough warm clothes. Or vice versa? And then there's the stress of forgetting something important, like medication or underwear.

It's a very tedious process, but once you get to your destination, all that stress and worry just drift away.

1. You start off easy, only packing for an hour here and there

2. You know you only need 7 or 8 shirts, but you decide to pack at least 16, you know, just in case

3. But at least you get an excuse to wear all your cute clothes, including tank tops, shorts, and rompers

4. Your instagram profile is going to be hella cute with all the photo ops you have planned with your cute clothes

5. Even with cute outfits, you aren't excited about getting dressed up for a nice family dinner

6. You need to mentally prepare yourself for any items you might forget to pack

7. Even though you're going to the beach, you pack 3 sweatshirts and several long-sleeve shirts

8. You try to pack ahead of time, but in reality, you pack the night before you leave

9. You're not looking forward to packing up the car with everyone's heavy luggage

10. Right before the car starts, there's an anxious energy in the car about forgetting items

11. When the car is all packed and Dad starts driving towards your destination

12. Within the first hour of driving, you have a pretty clear idea of the emotions of your family regarding the vacation

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day.
