GiphyThe answer is no. Especially if you never took the decorations down in the first place.
Yes the answer is yes.
GiphyWe all know that one person.
Honestly, I don't get the hype. I've tasted the latte and it's alright, but I've had better coffee. In my ~very~ unpopular opinion Pumpkin Spice Lattes aren't good and the world would continue to turn without them, but since they do exist, here are 25 things I'd rather do than drink one.
Enjoy your Pumpkin Spice everything!
It's true I promise! If you're up studying for a big exam, it'll actually be better for you to get some sleep. While you sleep, this part of your brain called the Hippocampus replays everything that you've learned in the day, helping your brain remember and store valuable information in your long-term memory, to use for later (Like for the exam for example).
Your brain burns a lot of energy throughout the day and as a result produces "metabolic byproducts" which you can think of as the trash of the brain, what is left over and produced after all the work and effort throughout the day. While you sleep, your body "repairs itself" and prepares for the new day ahead. As you get some shut eye, your brain restores its neurons, but it can't do that if you don't sleep! Getting enough sleep makes your immune system stronger, decrease pain, and helps with headaches and migraines.
This is when your brain shuts down, therefore so does your body regardless of your efforts to stay awake. This can be deadly because your brain just does not care what you could be doing in the moment. For example, a friend of mine a few months ago went a couple of days without sleep because she was studying for finals. She went over to a friend's house to study, and as she was driving back home late at night, her body shut down, and she hit a tree. She is fine! She got away with only a few scratches and a wrecked car, but the accident could have been much worst!
There is actually such a thing as "beauty sleep!" Getting enough sleep decreases the dark circles under your eyes, improves the appearance of your skin, and encourage weight loss.
Not sleeping just literally puts you in a horrible mood. Why would you do that to yourself, and others around you? The longer you stay awake, the harder it is for your brain to burn energy and function normally. Your judgement will become hazy and will start to make less sense, leading you to mistakes. This will probably stress you out and make you more and more cranky as you begin to lose focus and become unable to remember things as efficiently as you used to.
Don't do this to yourself! Life is already complicated enough, don't add these to your list of problems. Sleep is your best friend.
Chapstick, gum, lint roller, stain stick, you have it all.
Which more often than not, turns into overpacking for every. single. trip.
"Do you have a screwdriver?"
"Of course! who doesn't??"
*pulls out whole toolbox*
Pants, check. Formal gowns, check. Beloved stuffed animals, check.
*Discreetly passes them down the pew at church*
Even though you, yourself, have no idea what you're doing.
People say you just have a comforting personality.
It never fails, not sure why.
No plan = disaster.
A clean room is a happy room.
You feel bad if you let them do something they might regret.
You've got it covered.
Ice pack? Check.
"What do I look like? Your mother?"
"Mama Becky" caught on real quick.
Being the "Mom friend" is something that will never change.
I have always wanted to be a mom. Even when I younger, I knew I wanted to be one. Although relationships are not my forte, I love kids and have always been good with them. So hanging out with my nieces has taught me that I cannot wait to have my own tiny humans running around that look like the love of my life and myself.
This is a given, but kids are a handful. Especially when they are first born. I cannot count how many restless nights I have had recently due to taking care of them. I love my sleep so I cannot fathom being a mom right now at this point in my life. I am at no point right now where I am ready to have kids. So sorry mom, give me another 10 years and then we shall see.
As I said prior, kids are a handful. They need a constant level of attention that I do not have right now. Yet, every second with them is very brightening and I enjoy getting to help see them grow for just a short amount of time.
Along with the increased level of attention, kids need a plethora of entertainment. Not only are they constantly moving, but so are you. It is important to make sure that they are busy -- or napping when given the chance -- to make sure that they are never bored and always entertained.
I do not know how single parents take care of themselves and their children. I give them major props for being able to be everything in one person for themselves and their children. As I said before, kids take a good time and effort to maintain, so a two parent household is so much more convenient and beneficial for children.
This whole experience has taught me that children need so much more than what we give them sometimes. Also, thank god for being an aunt because I can give them back as soon as I get to take care of them. I have also learned that it is super important to mention how children are so much more in charge of our future than we really think. They have the ability to be the generation that fixes everything our generation or the ones prior have messed up. Not only are their little smiles contagious, but they will be the ones to make or break what future we have in store.c
