16 Times Michael Scott and I Were The Same Exact Person

"That's what she said."

Everyone has to make an Office listicle at least once in their Odyssey career. Whenever I'm stressed or depressed, I watch The Office -- it has become my everything. So, by writing this article, hopefully, my excessive Netflix-watching is finally paying off. Also, yes, I know I'm a little late to the trend, but don't judge me and let me thrive here.

1. Group projects.

When I'm doing a group project and someone finally acknowledges one of my ideas even though I had to repeat it ten times.


2. College budget.

When I exceeded my college budget for the month in the first week because I couldn't stop buying holidays coffees and I know I'm the worst person ever.



3. Club fairs.

Okay me during freshman year when I attended every single event, club, homecoming week activity, orientation, and got all the free pizza and t-shirts.


4. In-class discussions.

Being a political science student this happens a lot; when I'm in class and the Donald Trump voter says something racist and claims it's not racist, but, "just facts."


5. Starbucks.

When I go to Starbucks to do my homework instead of sitting in my room, but I just get a frappuccino and play on my phone the entire time.


6. Dogs.

When I'm away at school and miss my dog, so anytime I see a dog, I claim them as my own.


7. Holiday season.

When it's finally the holiday season, but then I remember I have finals coming up and all of my happiness leaves my body.


8. Comfort zone.

Whenever people tell me to step outside of my comfort zone, and I do for two seconds and absolutely hate it.



9. Being late.

When I have anxiety about being late and I have back-to-back classes with only ten minutes in between each.


10. Morning work.

When I'm at work and someone tries to communicate with me even though it's 9 a.m. and I have to work a 10-hour shift.


11. One Direction.

Me in the club anytime they play a One Direction song and I'm the only hype one.


13. Drama.

When I'm the person who never knows of any drama happening and someone finally tells me something juicy.


14. Stupid questions.

When I'm in class and someone asks the most basic and unintelligent question ever and wastes all of my precious time.


15. Driver's ed.

When I first started drivers ed and had no idea what I was doing, and I kept hitting all of the cones and jumping the curb.

16. Speed limit.

Last, but not least, when I drive five miles over the speed limit and I feel like the most rebellious person in the world. That is, until I see a police officer, and then I slam on my breaks and proceed to drive five miles under the speed limit... #relatable.

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. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

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. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
