College is both tragically and unquestionably over. And with it all the deceptive creature comforts that the four years in the Bubble entailed.
Never locking your room and never having anything stolen.
Free, warm, at times edible, at times quite tasty, food, offered in a variety format. Want salad? Put one together in a bowl. Want chicken? Load one up there on your tray!
My 16 hours of employment a week was considered a lot, or at least a respectable amount.
Now you want salad? Walk your ass to the grocery store, get them veggies, wash, peel, tend and mold them into something delicious. Good luck you novice to cooking!
The point of the above is simple and much more concise than I made it out to be:
Life in the real world is constantly teaching me new things.
Some lessons are grandiose. Others not so much. Like this lil tidbit:
Fabric softener is the most amazing thing EVER!
Though I have been doing laundry for about six years now, I was a simple dryer sheets girl. Standing in front of a boy. Asking him to love her. I watched Love Actually this weekend and seem to find myself in a Hugh Grant frame of mind.
Anywho, seriously, next time you do a load, put a capful in during the rinse cycle.
Your clothes and your nose will thank you for it.
