In This Article:

You don't have to work in an office yourself to relate to these (dis)functional adulthood antics!

1. When you keep making free trial accounts instead of paying for Netflix or Hulu:

Dwight: Yes, I have a wig for every single person in the office. You never know when you're going to need to bear a passing resemblance to someone.

2. When you force yourself to eat a healthy meal: 

Adulthood is 9/10 parts parenting yourself and 1/10 vegetables.

3. When you prioritize your free time well: 

Just because you're a grown up now does not mean you can't dream big!

4. When life just keeps happening and you don't get a break: 

In that moment, we were all Kelly Kapoor.

5. When you need a little pep talk to get through the day: 

""You miss 100% of the shots you don't take" - Wayne Gretsky" - Michael Scott.

6. When your boss asks "Who can pick up an extra shift this week?":

Make sure to suddenly remember that you just happen to be out of town or getting surgery or something at that time! Darn...

7. When you need to add some flavor to your job resume: 

Every extracurricular counts for something, right?

8. When you invited "that one friend" to hangout:

How does anyone this age have that much energy?

9. When you finally break and re-download Tinder: 

Let's play "did that person I knew in high school swipe right because we were friends or because I've had a glow up?"

10. When your family decides it's time for a reunion: 

Turning invasive questions into a drinking game is a bad idea... or is it?

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.

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.
