The Last Two Weeks...In Gifs

Sometimes in this little thing called life, we go through rough patches. I find them completely unnecessary. But for me, sometimes rough patches are good. Sometimes they help us to confront things that maybe we wouldn't. And sometimes- all you need to get through them is a little help from your friends. So here we have it: a (rough) explanation of the past few weeks, as told by gifs of my favorite pop culture moments.

Due to turning 26 and being kicked off my parents insurance, I had to wait a few weeks for my work insurance to kick in. During this time, I decided to take a nice run through some poison ivy...

and finally, sprain my ankle because good things always come in threes!

I know, I'm a walking disaster. And my nailbeds suck. 

Then, tragedy struck in my hometown. All I wanted was to just go home and be with my family. But I couldn't, because adulthood. 

My work bestie left. 

And then of course, when you're in a rough state, the meanies come out

So then I was all like, what did I do to deserve all of this?

Cryface.

I was kind of ready to give up and sit in bed with tacos forever.

By this point, my wonderful family and friends had caught on.

 

J reminded me how great my life is, and gave me a wonderful pep talk. 

And then I received yet another inspirational speech, from a godsend of a coworker. 

And at this point, I realized it was time to get out of bed, and show you how valuable Elle Woods can be. 

So if you're having a bad day/week/month/year. Remember: there's always someone who thinks you're awesome and worthwhile. Haters gonna hate. Live well, be successful, and when you need a pick me up, look in the mirror and remind yourself who you are:

And if that doesn't work- Sandy Cohen will always be there to brighten your day.

Here's to a better week than the last!
