When was the last time you looked in a mirror? Are your eyes sunken? Is your skin blotchy? Have you had a vague headache all day? If you answered “yes” to any or all of these questions, it might be time for you to drink some more water . We need to appreciate water a little bit more. It carries the weight of the entire planet on its shoulders, but what thanks does it get? There are people out there who refuse it, opting instead for the additive embrace of Diet Coke. There’s nothing wrong with i…

I am, by every definition of the word, a city boy. I stayed in the city growing up. I can only recall a handful of times that I experienced non-commercial places of nature. Spending the day at a lake with the boys, fishing, and chilling, is one of my favorite once-in-awhile sort of occasions. Planning a camping trip for a weekend, hanging out with friends you haven't seen in a bit, using your rich friend's expensive fishing equipment? I love every second of it. So I definitely enjoy fishing, I'…

Stop what you're doing for just a minute. Take a look around the room. What's next to you? What are you drinking? Coffee? Juice? Please, don't say soda. Me? I've got a big jar of ice water. The way that it's supposed to be. We all know how important hydration is for the optimal functioning of our bodies. But I don't think we appreciate it as much as we should. Admittedly, I'm only a recent water convert. Only in the past few months have I started drinking the daily recommended amount of water.…

When you're a kid, you always have arbitrary rules thrust upon you for stupid reasons. In elementary school , we were only allowed to wear hats on Fridays, which as a hat girl, I found ridiculous. How is wearing a hat any more distracting than not wearing a hat? I would understand if hats were banned in order to prevent the spread of lice, but they weren't! They just wanted to restrict our freedom a bit more. Sometimes, teachers and educators can circumvent rules that are unfair. My 3rd-grade t…

I never felt less like a human being than when I worked a customer service job . Something about always having to be productive, getting harassed by customers, and not being allowed to sit and catch a break really tears you down. Your needs are not being prioritized at all, and as a result, you're physically and mentally exhausted by the end of your shift. In situations like these, a manager can make or break your experience. At my old job, I was lucky enough to have managers that would stick u…

Drink up

There's something palpably disgusting yet utterly riveting about watching rich, privileged people talking about their “everyday” lives. With the advent of social media, the regular old plebs of the world now have the opportunity to really see how the other half lives. Social media is a lot more revealing than shots from a rabid paparazzo, despite the fact that they can reveal a carefully curated view of the subject's existence. That colorful and impeccably composed acai bowl sitting atop an inf…
