The Real World (not MTV style)

I am a 21 year old girl working two jobs and attending college, and the grill fell off my car a few weeks ago.  HA! That made my life sound pretty hard.  I'm grateful for my life and the ease/challenges of it.  Even though I'm not graduating any time soon I have been thinking about those who ARE graduating soon and WILL be 100% adults in the real world.  As a girl, if I'm not graduating as a school teacher or a nurse I don't know what I'm doing with my life.  Kidding.  That's too generic.  I don't know if what I will be doing when I graduate will be making a substantial amount of money or not.  I'll work hard enough to survive and maybe I won't be eating at Chick-Fil-A anymore if I can't afford that.  But I'll be happy with my work, and that's what's important to me.

Some people might say that I'm a little bit sexist or stereotypical (I hope I'm using the right words) for saying that I don't plan on being the breadwinner for my family, but I want to be a mom instead.  And I should be.  I'll probably have about 9 kids and they'll be adorably dressed in clothes that you can BET will have be purchased for a good deal. My degree will allow me to make money as needed and hopefully work a desired amount of hours.  AND I'LL BE HAPPY. But boys?  I feel so sorry for them!  As soon as they graduate high school they go to college.  By their early 20s they are working on a degree that they most likely chose to pursue before they were even an adult.  Men plan on providing for their families, but how do they know they'll be happy with their work for the next 40 years?  They don't.  It would be scary to be a boy, to dive into a job or career and consider sticking with it for the rest of your life, and crossing your fingers that it would make you happy, and it could support your family.  I would rather have a happy and healthy family than have a lot of money but uptight relationships.  Family is important, and it will all work out.

I'm grateful to be a girl, sorry boys, I hope it all works out, but if not--you could dress up and charge for pictures like this guy.

Obviously I snuck this one. 

BUT NOT THIS ONE!

The Calico Cat

I understand where girls are coming from when they want to add a little color to their hair.  But why do they color their hair so intensely?  If you're a blonde, be a blonde.  If you're a brunette, please be a brunette, don't bleach it.  Back and forth and back and forth....does your ID still work? I wouldn't be surprised if it didn't.  In my eyes a girl who constantly is at the salon is a little psycho.  Nothing necessarily explains why I think that, but I just do.  She probably listens to Evanescence or The Veronicas.

A little mix of this and a splash of that will turn you into a Calico cat.  Be careful, you don't want to look like the hair model of your best friend who is attending Paul Mitchell.  No offense, you might be doing her a favor.  If the stripes and spots don't give you that feline look you're seeking then go ahead and apply the "cat-eye" eyeliner effect like below. Works like a charm. 

Rarrrrrr.

CURRENTLY LISTENING TO:

Gamers

Video games.  How is it that they get the best of so many people?  It got me back in the 6th grade. When I used to practice the piano in elementary my mom would bribe me with "points".  With my points I bought a Nintendo-64.  As soon as the Nintendo was in the house I quit piano.  Story ends there.  My roommate has a friend who skipped days of school to stay inside their apartment and play Zelda.  When my family got a Play Station 2 for Christmas one year my brother literally cried.  It's on film and hopefully going in his wedding video.  Those dumb video games get the best of boys.

I'll admit that there are a few games that have wasted my time as my hands cramp up and sweat like crazy.  Guitar Hero occupied the majority of my Christmas Break of my Jr. year of high school.  Mario Kart is the only game girls like.  Call us stupid, but I don't like the rest.  Girls also call every gaming system a Nintendo, and probably will forever.

Girls want boys who are good at video games as much as boys want girls who are good at spending their money.  Which is something I'm good at, so I'm sorry to my future husband--but I can stop if you can stop.  And I apologize for the negativity, just on my mind.  Someone can hate on girls for being obsessed with Pinterest.
