It’s 9:15 AM and I am pretending to be a Minion?

HELLO ALL!

So, as you may know, being a college student comes with a whirlwind of expenses… tuition, books, sorority dues, food payments, parking passes, and then of course my much needed Starbucks runs.

Summer is known for crunch time for college students. It’s when we all warp into a super human being and try to tackle as much as we can when it comes to working. All we care about is making money. We don’t care how we do it, what we do, we know we just need money. At least I do.

This summer I gained an awesome gig that I could not turn down to be a full time summer nanny. Many would be like, how boring right? Well, being surrounded by little minions can be exhausting… it is definitely worth the pay. Between the nerf gun battles, the ice cream runs, waterpark trips, lounging by the pool, and the great humor of children, I would say I definitely lucked out this summer.

I would definitely recommend to any college student and even high school student who wants to pick up some extra cash for the summer and be guaranteed a set line of weekly hours and pay rate, definitely go the nanny track.

Now that summer is winding down, I am already counting down the days until I am done with my summer job and back to GMU. I’m proud to say that I have successfully made my goal for my tuition payment for the Fall semester. 30 more days to go. 

As the kid I nanny would say, BANANA!
