If You Learn Anything From Toddlers, Let It Be These 10 Things

Lupita Morales

Toddlers are absolutely reckless but their chaos has taught me some valuable things. My family is big to say the least. I may be an only child but I'm surrounded by cousins I consider siblings and their kids have such a special place in my heart. Even before they could speak, they taught me some of the most valuable things. I guess it's true that actions speak louder than words.

The Life Of An Average College Girl, As Told By 'SpongeBob SquarePants'

Instagram

"SpongeBob SquarePants" was my favorite cartoon growing up by far, and it remains my favorite cartoon of all time today. He's the only thing I miss about having access to cable TV 24/7. I only appreciate the show more and more the older I get -- it was funny as a kid, but it's becoming funny in a different way as I catch the older jokes I missed as a kid (and realize that I'm TRULY Squidward).

Life as a college girl is truly a struggle, but at least I know I'm never alone because SpongeBob is right here struggling with me.

6 Small Things To Purchase For Your Happiness

Please don't do what I do and buy things to avoid your problems.

However, I will say that whoever said money can't buy you happiness was a liar. There are small things you can get to perk you up a little, lighten your spirits and brighten your day. I'm not saying spend your entire paycheck at once, that's dangerous. BUT, I am saying sometimes needing a pick-me-up is one hundred percent OK!

10 Necessities You Can Snag At A Dollar Store Near You

10 Necessities You Can Snag At A Dollar Store Near You

I am a broke college kid with a bit too much pride, until recently, to even go to the dollar store. My mom goes there all the time for the random card or to get balloons or whatever but it is a whole untapped world in there. Don't wait until you're 50 to walk into one. Go now. Us college kids are on a budget and they have great deals; just make sure you know which store is what.

Places like Family Dollar and Dollar General have cheap prices but not always a dollar. Places like Dollar tree, though, they have everything for a dollar. Just make sure you know what to expect so you don't walk in and get surprised. All options are great though, 10/10 would recommend. Suck up your pride and go because there is NO SHAME IN THE DOLLAR STORE GAME!
