i taught swim lessons and preschool, do y’all wanna hear the most ridiculous white kid names i’ve ever seen?

i’ve met at least a dozen children named some form of “jackson” but the best ones were “jaxon” and “jakson”

a parent who i really liked named her son “jaycob” because she was worried people wouldn’t pronounce it correctly. when someone accidentally spelled it “jacob” she would loudly and obnoxiously ask “WHO’S JAH-KOBE?”

two siblings named “thor” and “tiara”

i once had a classroom with four girls named “brooklyn”

if you sent me a list of popular boy names, i could guarantee i’ve met every single one of them

twin girls named paisley and brinley

a girl named reader

a boy named rocko

keighleey

kayde

kolten

if it can start with a “k” instead of a “c” i have met that child

i taught a swim class with three girls named “london” but only one of them was spelled “lundon” and i know my boss did that to me on purpose

a couple named all their kids after places in arizona: tatum, payson, and hayden

and speaking of hayden, i’ve seen: haydon, heighden, and heydon

according to some white people, there are sixteen different ways to spell mckenzie

The Sea Organ is situated on the western end of Zadar´s Riva, and can be observed as several stairs that descend into the sea.The organ looks like a series of broad steps leading down into the water, but there´s actually very clever engineering hiding under the surface.The lower steps allow water and air to flow in. That water and air is then funneled into resonant chambers under the steps, and pushed out through the channels on the upper stairs, seen here. These cause the chime-like notes to be produced. Because the sea is always shifting and changing, the sea organ never sounds exactly the same twice. Each sound you hear is completely unique. (Source)

OMG this is in my country! I was there, lemme tell you, sitting there at sunset, listening to the sounds easily mistaken for mermaid’s songs, smell of the sea and lavander surounding you, and you’re basically breathing in the history of the city that lies behind you as you stare at the rippling water. Magical.

Me, looking back at how many books i used to read: I love that bitch, she was going places.

People: You can’t just cut people out your life and act like they never ment anything to you…

Aquarius, GEMINI, Scorpio, Capricorn and Virgo:

me: [at work, ringing up two parents and their toddler who’s sitting in the cart trying to get their attention]

toddler, quietly, waving hands around: [incomprehensible]

mom: what?

toddler, even quieter: [incomprehensible]

dad: you gotta speak up, bud

toddler, at full volume: FUCK.

girl-esque

this actually made me laugh out loud

“I think I fell in love with her, a little bit. Isn’t that dumb? But it was like I knew her. Like she was my oldest, dearest friend. The kind of person you can tell anything to, no matter how bad, and they’ll still love you, because they know you. I wanted to go with her. I wanted her to notice me. And then she stopped walking. Under the moon, she stopped. And looked at us. She looked at me. Maybe she was trying to tell me something; I don’t know. She probably didn’t even know I was there. But I’ll always love her. All my life.”
