1. You don't have to feel guilty about flirting with customers for tips (or just for shits and giggles).

2. You can be obnoxiously flirtatious with anyone you want. You are free to be that girl that flirts with everybody and makes 'em all smile (it's especially fun when the guy is as cute as Collin Jost). No shame.

3. Making random men nervous with your superior beauty and intense eye contact just for the hell of it is really amusing and empowering.

4. No one gives two poops if ya legs are hairy (your man shouldn't either but *Kermit the Frog meme* That's none of my business)

[rebelmouse-proxy-image https://media.rbl.ms/image?u=%2Ffiles%2F2017%2F02%2F10%2F636222917260378755-1820212642_giphy.gif&ho=https%3A%2F%2Faz616578.vo.msecnd.net&s=856&h=296c2e10afe51dc9beb2df8abbc3387e0a7cb7c07eda2d55e8e431bf7aca1bc0&size=980x&c=4138817444 crop_info="%7B%22image%22%3A%20%22https%3A//media.rbl.ms/image%3Fu%3D%252Ffiles%252F2017%252F02%252F10%252F636222917260378755-1820212642_giphy.gif%26ho%3Dhttps%253A%252F%252Faz616578.vo.msecnd.net%26s%3D856%26h%3D296c2e10afe51dc9beb2df8abbc3387e0a7cb7c07eda2d55e8e431bf7aca1bc0%26size%3D980x%26c%3D4138817444%22%7D" expand=1]

5. The toilet seat will remain down.

6. There's more money to spend on yourself.

[rebelmouse-proxy-image https://media.rbl.ms/image?u=%2Ffiles%2F2017%2F02%2F10%2F6362229197985727541144691162_giphy.gif&ho=https%3A%2F%2Faz616578.vo.msecnd.net&s=673&h=1113e3ab2409f1a9f66ffd7031a730d9fb28cde7e79ac80cf5b3b67e1125f523&size=980x&c=388075379 crop_info="%7B%22image%22%3A%20%22https%3A//media.rbl.ms/image%3Fu%3D%252Ffiles%252F2017%252F02%252F10%252F6362229197985727541144691162_giphy.gif%26ho%3Dhttps%253A%252F%252Faz616578.vo.msecnd.net%26s%3D673%26h%3D1113e3ab2409f1a9f66ffd7031a730d9fb28cde7e79ac80cf5b3b67e1125f523%26size%3D980x%26c%3D388075379%22%7D" expand=1]

7. There's always this secret butterfly in your tummy that marvels at the possibility that when you go out this weekend you're gonna meet someone super handsome/wonderful/prince-like and have this moment of dazzling dalliance.

[rebelmouse-proxy-image https://media.rbl.ms/image?u=%2Ffiles%2F2017%2F02%2F10%2F6362229301700825101903373266_tumblr_o78rzv3Naw1u0e0ubo1_500.gif&ho=https%3A%2F%2Faz616578.vo.msecnd.net&s=277&h=931de641494d0438b61f4e3701483f3fb900d055f952bd044a0f2efa119e2a5a&size=980x&c=1430142438 crop_info="%7B%22image%22%3A%20%22https%3A//media.rbl.ms/image%3Fu%3D%252Ffiles%252F2017%252F02%252F10%252F6362229301700825101903373266_tumblr_o78rzv3Naw1u0e0ubo1_500.gif%26ho%3Dhttps%253A%252F%252Faz616578.vo.msecnd.net%26s%3D277%26h%3D931de641494d0438b61f4e3701483f3fb900d055f952bd044a0f2efa119e2a5a%26size%3D980x%26c%3D1430142438%22%7D" expand=1]

8. Nothing is that serious...you can take it all with a grain of salt...you don't owe anybody anything.

[rebelmouse-proxy-image https://media.rbl.ms/image?u=%2Ffiles%2F2017%2F02%2F10%2F636222926250901852-760998409_53a0612ed6e0c_-_mindy-kalings-body-is-very-attracted-to-your-body-on-the-mindy-project.gif%3Fresize%3D768%3A%2A&ho=https%3A%2F%2Faz616578.vo.msecnd.net&s=355&h=877136d9258879c8053c0151f60405adfcd76b4bc72812dccc4a7980d9bf2435&size=980x&c=2045186567 crop_info="%7B%22image%22%3A%20%22https%3A//media.rbl.ms/image%3Fu%3D%252Ffiles%252F2017%252F02%252F10%252F636222926250901852-760998409_53a0612ed6e0c_-_mindy-kalings-body-is-very-attracted-to-your-body-on-the-mindy-project.gif%253Fresize%253D768%253A%252A%26ho%3Dhttps%253A%252F%252Faz616578.vo.msecnd.net%26s%3D355%26h%3D877136d9258879c8053c0151f60405adfcd76b4bc72812dccc4a7980d9bf2435%26size%3D980x%26c%3D2045186567%22%7D" expand=1]

9. You can dance with anyone and everyone...or no one (Hello frat boi w/ glasses, I see you).

[rebelmouse-proxy-image https://media.rbl.ms/image?u=%2Ffiles%2F2017%2F02%2F10%2F636222927988769711802667504_giphy.gif&ho=https%3A%2F%2Faz616578.vo.msecnd.net&s=633&h=0423b307acbed766d20f4d624028f8e85549a343a0915ceef1fb867d1e0fd1f9&size=980x&c=975359125 crop_info="%7B%22image%22%3A%20%22https%3A//media.rbl.ms/image%3Fu%3D%252Ffiles%252F2017%252F02%252F10%252F636222927988769711802667504_giphy.gif%26ho%3Dhttps%253A%252F%252Faz616578.vo.msecnd.net%26s%3D633%26h%3D0423b307acbed766d20f4d624028f8e85549a343a0915ceef1fb867d1e0fd1f9%26size%3D980x%26c%3D975359125%22%7D" expand=1]

10. You don't have to fluff anyone's ego but your own.

[rebelmouse-proxy-image https://media.rbl.ms/image?u=%2Ffiles%2F2017%2F02%2F10%2F636222938853737885-1328565189_giphy.gif&ho=https%3A%2F%2Faz616578.vo.msecnd.net&s=856&h=5f8f4020470f322ec3379f26a7d6048893b3f2245f25ca1a9aa2699b03b3101e&size=980x&c=4139734352 crop_info="%7B%22image%22%3A%20%22https%3A//media.rbl.ms/image%3Fu%3D%252Ffiles%252F2017%252F02%252F10%252F636222938853737885-1328565189_giphy.gif%26ho%3Dhttps%253A%252F%252Faz616578.vo.msecnd.net%26s%3D856%26h%3D5f8f4020470f322ec3379f26a7d6048893b3f2245f25ca1a9aa2699b03b3101e%26size%3D980x%26c%3D4139734352%22%7D" expand=1]

11. Free drinks and dinners from single guys (It's not taking advantage if they're offering; a girl's gotta eat).

[rebelmouse-proxy-image https://media.rbl.ms/image?u=%2Ffiles%2F2017%2F02%2F10%2F636222934799669799797677543_giphy.gif&ho=https%3A%2F%2Faz616578.vo.msecnd.net&s=659&h=d029b49baba82baf2a05921c97a82d9a177fa576bc4622d31b6c3afb78331617&size=980x&c=542100107 crop_info="%7B%22image%22%3A%20%22https%3A//media.rbl.ms/image%3Fu%3D%252Ffiles%252F2017%252F02%252F10%252F636222934799669799797677543_giphy.gif%26ho%3Dhttps%253A%252F%252Faz616578.vo.msecnd.net%26s%3D659%26h%3Dd029b49baba82baf2a05921c97a82d9a177fa576bc4622d31b6c3afb78331617%26size%3D980x%26c%3D542100107%22%7D" expand=1]

12. You have more time to learn how to love and improve yourself rather than constantly pouring your energy into another person.

[rebelmouse-proxy-image https://media.rbl.ms/image?u=%2Ffiles%2F2017%2F02%2F10%2F636222936817975059512422186_giphy.gif&ho=https%3A%2F%2Faz616578.vo.msecnd.net&s=827&h=4bd16ea19e15674e2b51457b70aad3c6ca72f219db45a5e1bed9ae1fd747f4e1&size=980x&c=4167946952 crop_info="%7B%22image%22%3A%20%22https%3A//media.rbl.ms/image%3Fu%3D%252Ffiles%252F2017%252F02%252F10%252F636222936817975059512422186_giphy.gif%26ho%3Dhttps%253A%252F%252Faz616578.vo.msecnd.net%26s%3D827%26h%3D4bd16ea19e15674e2b51457b70aad3c6ca72f219db45a5e1bed9ae1fd747f4e1%26size%3D980x%26c%3D4167946952%22%7D" expand=1]

13. You don't have to sacrifice your cheesy Jen Aniston rom-coms and Gilmore Girls for his Fast and Furious/other dumb action movie featuring blonde that is only in the movie to supply a relationship to the male lead and to make him look more masculine/empowered in juxtaposition (In other words, you don't have to deal with a guy being a crabby Patty while you watch your cute movies).

[rebelmouse-proxy-image https://media.rbl.ms/image?u=%2Ffiles%2F2017%2F02%2F10%2F636222941253968651-1860021671_giphy.gif&ho=https%3A%2F%2Faz616578.vo.msecnd.net&s=930&h=5f07268280a9f34745d4c1497c8e0356f4cf3a91e0fdae07f80004a84072a780&size=980x&c=2718319805 crop_info="%7B%22image%22%3A%20%22https%3A//media.rbl.ms/image%3Fu%3D%252Ffiles%252F2017%252F02%252F10%252F636222941253968651-1860021671_giphy.gif%26ho%3Dhttps%253A%252F%252Faz616578.vo.msecnd.net%26s%3D930%26h%3D5f07268280a9f34745d4c1497c8e0356f4cf3a91e0fdae07f80004a84072a780%26size%3D980x%26c%3D2718319805%22%7D" expand=1]

14. You can daydream about what your future husband may be doing right now (and not get stressed/guilty out because you're not picturing your current boyfriend that's crazy about you as your future husband).

[rebelmouse-proxy-image https://media.rbl.ms/image?u=%2Ffiles%2F2017%2F02%2F10%2F636222945315617134399897446_giphy.gif&ho=https%3A%2F%2Faz616578.vo.msecnd.net&s=504&h=7747131a74ad3073d2f3294c7a96848d31d799273d6e93ac41b8663d5231a408&size=980x&c=4194318304 crop_info="%7B%22image%22%3A%20%22https%3A//media.rbl.ms/image%3Fu%3D%252Ffiles%252F2017%252F02%252F10%252F636222945315617134399897446_giphy.gif%26ho%3Dhttps%253A%252F%252Faz616578.vo.msecnd.net%26s%3D504%26h%3D7747131a74ad3073d2f3294c7a96848d31d799273d6e93ac41b8663d5231a408%26size%3D980x%26c%3D4194318304%22%7D" expand=1]

15. There is more time to be spent with your girlfriends.

As any other person on this planet, it sometimes can be hard to find the good in things. However, as I have always tried my hardest to find happiness in any and every moment and just generally always try to find the best in every situation, I have realized that your own happiness is much more important than people often think. Finding the good in any situation can help you to find happiness in some of the simplest and unexpected places.

6 Things Owning A Cat Has Taught Me
Liz Abere

Owning a pet can get difficult and expensive. Sometimes, their vet bills cost hundreds of dollars just for one visit. On top of that, pets also need food, a wee wee pad for a dog, a litter box with litter for a cat, toys, and treats. Besides having to spend hundreds of dollars on them, they provide a great companion and are almost always there when you need to talk to someone. For the past six years, I have been the proud owner of my purebred Bengal cat named Spock. Although he's only seven years and four months old, he's taught me so much. Here's a few of the things that he has taught me.

It's fun to see all of the selfies on social media, they are everywhere. I see pictures with pouty lips, duck lips and pucker lips. I see smokey eyes, huge fake lashes and nicely done nose jobs, boob jobs and butt lifts. Women working out in spandex, tiny tops and flip flops. I see tight abs and firm butts, manicured nails and toes, up dos and flowing hair. "Wow", I think to myself," I could apply tons of make-up, spend an hour on my hair, pose all day and not look like that. Maybe I need a longer stick!"
