10 Times 'The Office' Improved My Mental Health

If you're sad, mad, lonely, drunk, happy, or anywhere in between, The Office will always improve your mood. The number of times I've watched this show may be unhealthy, but it makes me laugh every time! If you want the highlights, you're in the right place. Here are 10 times this show did something that deserves applause.

1. Relatable

Andy was a little much at the beginning, but we learned to love him. He was definitely a suck up, especially in asking Michael to do "bro" things like get a beer and hit on chicks. However, he did point out that he just wanted a friend! So next time your BFF tells you to shut up, use this line.

2. Michael's ~premature~ celebration

When Holly gave her boyfriend an ultimatum about committing, Michael and Erin put together two boxes-one for good news and one for bad. When he doesn't see a ring on her finger, he immediately pops the champagne and blasts Kelly Clarkson, which inspires a huge laugh. The best part is that even though she's still with A.J. at the time, she ends up with Michael in the end, even though they take a LONG time to find each other again.

3. Kelly Kapoor. Enough said. 

When Kelly stands up to Ryan, I think every viewer feels empowered and has her back. She's a bad ass bitch and doesn't care who knows it. Even though he's coming in to run a meeting, she utilizes the open floor to ream him out.

4. My girl.... again.

The business bitch. Brand yourself, it really makes you memorable, even if you're faking it.

5. Michael's misconceptions

Michael says a lot of ironic, ignorant things-but they're inherently hilarious. This is a personal favorite of mine, when he identifies Sbarro as a "New York pizza joint".

6. PB and J

The best combination. This doesn't have to be expanded upon, but Jim and Pam's secret wedding is quite literally the cutest thing that's ever happened. To top it off, "Forever" by Chris Brown makes the perfect background music.

7. Dwight's impersonations

Jim's impersonation of Dwight is legendary. But Dwight's collection of wigs for every co-worker is overlooked, and frankly, much more impressive.

8. PARKOUR!

Dumb, dumb, and dumber. Jim, Dwight, and Andy prove themselves to be the ultimate trio when they attempt hardcore parkour all around the office park.

9. Kevin's famous chili

There are shirts, laptop stickers, hoodies, and more that show off this infamous moment. Kevin having the most Kevin moment one could ever imagine.

10. Stanley laughing?

Let's be real, if Stanley can get a kick out of a meatball, or anything for that matter, you can find something that makes you laugh. So next time you need a pick-me-up or a good laugh, you know exactly where to go. Even though most days we feel like grumpy, tired Stanley, we can totally have just as great of a time as he is here.

5 Things To Do That Are Better Than Writing A Paper

Don't waste your time trying to write that paper when there are so many more interesting things you could be doing.

Writing a paper is never fun and is rarely rewarding. The writer's block, the page requirement, be specific, but don’t summarize, make sure you fixed any grammatical errors, did you even use spellcheck? and analyze, analyze, analyze.

Papers can be a major pain. They take up so much time and effort that by the end of the process you hate yourself and you hate the professor for making life so difficult. Questions of your existence start roaming in your mind. Am I even cut out for college if I can’t write a single paper? Am I even capable of taking care of myself if I lack the energy to open my laptop and start typing?

I can barely remember back when I was the only child. Most would say it’s because it is extremely difficult to remember things as a toddler but I would say it's because I was bored until my sister came along. My mother always says how important the "sister bond" is and with every year that passes I realize how right she is. Instead of writing a novel about all of the wonderful things there are about having a sister I decided to list a few of them instead.

It is the time of our lives that we are beginning to enter the adult world and most of us, if not all of us, have no idea what we are doing. It's like starting a video game, but skipping the tutorial. We're all just running around aimlessly hoping we accidentally do something right that moves us along the right path. Now that graduation has just happened, or is right around the corner for some of us, it's time to start thinking about how we are going to take care of ourselves once we are on our own.

It can be overwhelming at times and it’s important to take a step a back and calmly think things over. Maybe gain some perspective. The following aren’t foolproof tips and may not apply to you, but I was able to find success with them (hope you do too!)
