Friends Make Work Better- Adult Edition

I work at a newspaper.

I usually work 8-5.

WORK GETS FLIPPIN BORING.

Yes I enjoy my job, I enjoy it a lot. But when I first started, I knew 2 people in the town and that was it. I had 0 friends and had no idea how I was going to survive living in a tiny town with no friends.

Until I met some co workers.

You might think that only older people work at the newspaper. That is not true.

I work in the advertising and the newspaper department, When I first started I was invited out by one of the news girls to get drinks. I LOVED IT!

Eventually a few more girls got hired at the paper and we have formed a little girl gang.

We do everything together, EVERYTHING.

WE LITERALLY ONLY HAVE EACH OTHER IN THIS TINY TOWN.

We eat lunch together, we eat dinner together, we get drinks, carve pumpkins, got to national parks, hikes and the bowling alley together. There is no stopping us.

Here are some facts that I have lived through with these ladies.

1. They have your back.

THAT IS A FACT

We have been through so much together in the small amount of time that we have been friends. Whether it has to do with bosses, boys or landlords.

2. Vent Sessions.

WE VENT ALL THE TIME, LIKE PROBABLY WAY TOO MUCH

Any little thing annoys us, we know we are safe to rant,

We vent about boys, work, how hungry we are, how we decorated our apartment, how we don't wanna cook or go get gas after work. or go to the store. I meant it when I said everything.

3. Biggest Cheerleaders.

THAT'S A FACT JACK

We are always trying to cheer each other on in the work that we do!

4. GROUP MESSAGE

Yes, we are adults living on our own with an awesome group message. We can literally text anything and it will get a ridiculous convo going,

5. LASTLY, THEY HAVE TO BE YOUR CO WORKER BUT CHOOSE TO BE YOUR FRIEND

Yes, they are stuck with you at work but the fact that we all hang out outside of work on the weekly shows how special our friendship really is.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

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. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

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.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. 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.
