13 Thoughts Everyone Has On A Road Trip

Road trips can be convenient because you have your car once you get to your destination and it might be cheaper than a plane ticket. However, whether it's worth it or not is a topic that is always up for debate.

This past year I've been on numerous road trips with friends. I'm on a road trip right now from Tallahassee, FL to Dallas, TX. (Why did I agree to be in a car for 13 hours? Let me know). I find it funny how every road trip, I go through the same thought process along the way.


1. I'm definitely going to leave by 8am! *leaves at 9:15am*

2. This is going to be so fun! I'm so excited to spend time with my friends!

3. *a few hours in* Are we there yet?

4. I'm hungry. Let's stop and get some food! *gets food* 

5. *30 minutes after food* Wow. I need to use the restroom, but don't want to say anything! 

6. *15 minutes later* Okay I HAVE to go to the bathroom. NOW. 

7. I know my gas tank is on "E" but I really don't want to stop. I'll go another 20 miles. Is doesn't actually mean my gas tank is empty. Right?

8. Are we there yet? We've got to be close!

9. This is getting really boring, really quickly. 

10. I don't want to play the "license plate game" anymore!

11. Somebody get me out of this car. 

12. I should have just bought the plane ticket. 

13. Seriously, are we there yet?

Don't get me wrong. I love going on trips with my friends and I would road trip every weekend if it was the only way I could travel! Also, you're crazy if you enjoy road trips.

40 Gift Ideas for the Indecisive

It's a time of love, family, memory-making, and gift-giving. But also a time of stressing over the perfect gift.

It's officially December. There is less than a month of 2024, and I still feel like yesterday was summer. Now comes the merriest time of the year, the Christmas season.

Everyone has been waiting for this time of year since mid-October (which is way too early, in my opinion) or before. It's a time of love, family, memory-making, and gift-giving. A lot of times when I ask friends and family what they want, I get a lot of "I don't know" or "I don't care."

Bucket List To Live In The Now

Find excitement in your life and start exploring wherever you are right here, right now.

mu bucket list

I was sitting at my cubicle, now that I am an adult, looking at the rain pouring down on the windowsill, bumming on life, wishing for the rain to just stop for a full day.

There are moments where we count down the hours until work is over and how many more days till the weekend, and this many weeks until something exciting. Or something like that? Well, I was bumming because my next day off from work is not until Memorial Day weekend, which is not until the end of May. And since this is my first year out of college being a “real person,” I am totally missing the winter, spring and summer breaks. I am sure all of us have felt this way even if just for a hot minute…
