This is a blog post about my wonderful boyfriend.

As you read this, I’m spending the day with him in Boston and having an amazing time.

We’ve been together 4 years (give or take). Why give or take? We had a rough patch around our 1 year anniversary, resulting in a month-ish break and we now use this date, when we got back together, as opposed to our original anniversary date. Why? I don’t know.

We met in middle school – we know it was definitely Italian class in 7th grade, for sure. We have a feeling we might have been in 6th grade geography together, but we don’t remember for sure. Back then, we barely knew each other. He was just some kid that hung out with stupid guys and he never said anything in class. I was that girl who had a couple friends and pretty much ignored everybody else.

He also claims I made fun of him in our Italian classes 7th and 8th grade. These are downright lies. He just talked at the wrong times.

We didn’t talk at all in the 9th grade (truth be told, I kind of forgot he existed).

In 10th grade, he had a locker near a friend of mine. My friend and I would chat between classes there, and he would sometimes say something. He always got an immediate “Shut up, Pennelli” or some snarky remark. I was really mean to him in 10th grade.

Summer between 10th and 11th grade (Summer of 2009) was when we started actually talking, and then started going out. I had no feelings for him when he first asked me out (I feel horrible!). But obviously, things have changed.

Part of me says “Oh my god, 4 years! Where did the time go?!” and another part of me says “Jeez, that’s it? Only 4 years?!

Here I was thinking I’d be the crazy cat lady (but with dogs instead).

Nope. I have a fantastically amazing boyfriend who I know would give me the world if I asked for it (or he’d try to, anyways). Good thing I’ll never ask for it. He’s smart, he’s funny, he’s hardworking, and he’s a great cook. He’s tall, dark (during the summer, anyways) and handsome. He may not be going to college, but that isn’t a problem for me. He enjoys working with his hands and being in a trade. It’s what makes him happy, like PR makes me happy. Not everybody needs a college degree to do well in life.

I am the luckiest girl in the entire world. We have some people that don’t agree with our relationship, because we’re too young, and neither of us have been in many relationships prior to 2009 (we were 16, big deal!) but we don’t need experience in other relationships to know what makes us truly happy. We’ve had many long discussions about what we want out of life. A lot of it has changed over time: when he was 16, he wanted to be a cook, and I wanted to be a teacher or child psychologist, for example. Plenty of other things have changed.

But as we’ve grown up these past 4 years, we’ve grown up together, rather than grown up apart. We share all of the same ideals and goals in life. We both want to live a certain way, raise kids a certain way, grow old a certain way. We both enjoy similar things, and those things we don’t enjoy together, we still discuss and educate each other. He loves cars, and I don’t understand much about them. But he talks my ear off anyways, and I find myself learning from it. He doesn’t understand my need to constantly be attached to my iPhone, and thankfully doesn’t roll his eyes too much when I am.

It’s the little things that count. We don’t see each other very often (parents now live in different towns, plus I live on campus during school) so we make the best of the time we have. It isn’t easy. But it makes it so worth it.

I wish everybody could have this kind of relationship – the world would be a much better place.

Thank you, Michael, for being so freaking amazing to me after all these years. Here’s to many more.

New Blog?! Woah!

New Blog?! Woah!

Yup, I finally got an idea for a real, meaningful blog. I’ll still post to this one when I have some silly blog ideas, but that one will be a daily blog posting. I hope you all will check it out! (However, I won’t start an actual post until tomorrow).

 

I know inspirational blogs are way overdone, but my goal is to make mine a little different, and more exciting. Why should you follow it? Just check it out, and you’ll see. 

 

Have a lovely day. 🙂

Just a Quick Blurb

Just wanted to post about my awesome new theme. The balloons kind of got in the way of the posts, which drove me bananas. So there’s this new theme!

The picture is one I took on my first night at my most recent trip to WDW of Wishes. I absolutely love it.

Hope you guys think this new layout looks nice. I do wish I could change the colors on the sidebar (I’m not really an orange kinda person) but that’s a paid feature and I’m just too poor to do that right now.

Have a lovely day!

Modern Day Gladiators

Okay first of all: Don’t ask me where I’ve been, here’s your answer: I’ve basically just forgotten all about my blog until just recently. 

I was at the Bruins’ games this past Stanley Cup Playoffs/Finals (don’t talk about it, the wound still stings) and while I’m sitting there screaming my head off for my black and gold guys to win, I realized I had a blog, and an idea for a blog post.

If you’ve ever been to a hockey game, it’s really unlike any other sports games. Baseball games put me to sleep. I’ve never been to anything other than a high school (American) football game, and that was boring. I’m going to assume pro/semi-pro games are too. Basketball, again only high school, and that was okay. Even the high school hockey games were intense (and that was not just because I was a player).

Hockey is like modern day gladiator tournaments. I mean think about it. It’s full of violence, and anger, and men pumped full of testosterone beating each other with fists when they aren’t chasing around a rubber disk on ice.

It’s amazing. I have never felt such energy at any other sporting event or concert or whathaveyou as I have when I’m at a hockey game, especially Bruins games. People are insane. We cry for blood, we scream and shout when our favorite players score, we boo and jeer when the hated players score or even touch the puck (Kessel, Crosby). Nothing has ever made me feel more alive.

It’s like a totally legal and socially acceptable drug. People are often envious that you’re going. People pay big money to go. 

 

And just think of how they fight through pain. Hello, Patrice Bergeron anybody? That guy is amazing. He’s always been pretty awesome, but I mean you can’t fault him. And Gregory Campbell, too! That’s just to name a few amazing feats from the Bruins, but throughout the years and across the sport people have done things like this – they’ve fought on despite pain, just to ensure a win.

If you ever have an opportunity to attend a hockey game, I highly recommend it. Even if you know nothing about the game, the energy of the crowd will pick you up and give you life you didn’t know you had. 

Felix the Brain Monster

There is a monster in my head. His name is Felix. Felix the Monster.

 

Usually, Felix will sit in a cage inside of my brain like a good little monster. He’ll watch me go about my day with a grumpy look on his monster face, arms crossed. He’ll roll his eyes, or scoff, or any manner of judgmental things. 

Every morning when I eat breakfast, I have to check on Felix’s cage. I have to make sure he’s locked in tight. He’s like the Tasmanian Devil from Looney Tunes if he gets out.

Some mornings, I’ll skip breakfast for some reason. So I’ll forget to check the cage. Thankfully, that’s a rare thing and even then I usually get lucky and Felix is still locked in tight.

Unfortunately, Felix can still get out. He’s a sneaky monster, and even when it’s locked tight he might find a way to get out of the cage. Then, Felix will wreak havoc on my life. He’ll take control of my brain and make me do any number of things. The big ones are cry, scream at people, and break things. The screaming at people is really just screaming at my boyfriend*.

Now, why would I keep such a monster inside of my brain? Because it isn’t easy to get rid of a monster like him. He’s a Depression Monster. They usually come built into brains, making them dysfunctional depending on how active the Monster is. Felix is pretty active, which is why he needs a cage. That cage is medication. 

For the love of god, people, don’t judge people that have depression. I am very open about mine – it has made me who I am. I will proudly say I do take medication. But thanks to that medication, I can be a normal, functioning person of society. I can experience things like happiness on a normal person’s scale. 

But there are people who aren’t like me. They keep their Monsters hidden away in a dark, wet place because they are ashamed. They think everyone will hate them for having a Monster in their brain.

Be nice to people. You never know who’s got a Monster hiding.

 

*I put the little asterisk next to boyfriend because I wanted to make a side note about my boyfriend. His name is Mike, we’ve been together since 2009. Yes, even with Felix he has not left my side. He’s used to Felix. I don’t think I ever told him Felix had a name, but that’s besides the point. The real point is that he is one of those special people that has developed the ability to ignore Brain Monsters. I don’t exactly know how he developed this talent, but he tells me it’s some combination of love and patience. Learn to have both, and you too can be regarded as a god amongst men. Those of us with Brain Monsters will respect and like you a lot more.

 

P.S.: I wrote this because I don’t think I’ve mentioned my depression before. As I said, I’m very open about it, so I feel it needs to be said. Please don’t silently wonder (or ask me) if I’m alright. I am perfectly fine. I’m secretly hoping Felix will be nice to me because I wrote a whole post about him. 

A Revolutionary Idea

Last night at around 1 in the morning, I went on a bit of a twitter rampage. I had a brilliant idea. Though I know it will never come to fruition, I still feel it needs to be said.

How many people, as they enter the workforce, are more productive at night? Of course, as we get older and have to force ourselves into the swing of the 9-5, we are able to make that transition. But starting out as college grads? A morning person is probably few and far between.

As a night owl myself, I often have productive moods and strokes of brilliance in the late hours of the day, or perhaps even the wee hours of the morning. While I’m grateful for my opportunity to work at Brady corp. over this summer (incredibly grateful, you have no idea) I obviously have to conform to their typical office hours of 8-5. 

Truth be told, I’m terrified of that. I don’t work nearly as well as I could at 8 in the morning. It will probably be around 2 or 3 when I can be as productive as they’d like me. I need to change that, and I have 2 weeks to do it, but I’m still worried.

And this leads me to my beautiful brain surge.

Why not have the average shift, rather than be 9-5, be 3-11? Yes. 3 PM to 11 PM. Or something around there. 

People will cry out, “what about family dinners?!” Psh, why not have a family breakfast and lunch?! Two for one deal.

Not only that, but isn’t sunshine beneficial for us both mentally and physically? With a 9 to 5 shift, we waste almost all of it locked away behind desks. With something like a 3 to 11 shift, you can wake up whenever you please and experience a bit of the day. 

And for college students, like me? I’d thrive. I could sleep until 10, I could take the dog for a walk, I could sit outside and eat a nice lunch, and then get ready and make my way to work. Can anybody working a 9 to 5 enjoy any of that luxury? Not at all.

Of course, this is something that will probably never happen (at least in my lifetime). The current workforce has mostly already adjusted to the hours of 9 to 5, and are probably quite happy with them.

 

But if I had my way, let me tell you… I would be the best worker ever in a shift that’s more night-focused.

Words PR Students May Not Know – But Definitely Should

On Tuesday (4/9/13) I attended an event put on by PRSA Boston. It was a talk about SEO, and how to properly use it.

Now, here’s a bit of background: I only decided around December that I wanted to do PR. My first class in PR will be in the fall. Going into this room full of PR pros, who have been at it for 10, 20, 30 years, I was very much behind. They were saying so many things that I wasn’t quite sure what any of them meant.

I took down a list of the big ones that were said often, and decided to Google them. Then I thought, “Hey, there might be people just like me! Let’s make a blog post about it!” And so, here we are. Here are the terms that I heard quite a bit of.

• SEO – Search Engine Optimatization.

Thankfully, I knew this one before the event, considering this was the main topic! Basically, Search Engine Optimization is getting yourself/your client the highest possible (AKA first entry on page 1 of Google) naturally. By naturally (or”organic”), I mean without paying.

• B2B – Business to Business.

This is essentially a marketing term, between manufacturers and wholesalers, wholesalers and retailers. Any sort of selling that does not involve your everyday, average consumer. PR agencies are B2B – they sell their services to clients, who are businesses.

• PPC – Pay-per-click

You know those ads you see on the sides or tops of websites? (They are there, you may just have trained yourself to ignore them.) Those ads are generally pay-per-click. Every time someone clicks on that ad, the company running that ad pays the publisher/webmaster an amount set by said publisher/webmaster. In terms of search engines (like Google), companies bid on keywords, and how much they bid determines where they go.

• SOV – Share of Voice

Basically, SOV is a system to ensure that everyone is getting an equal percentage among other advertisers. If there are 4 advertisers, they each get 25% of the advertising “weight”. It makes sure company A’s advertisements aren’t getting seen more than companies B, C, and D’s ads.

• SERPs – Search Engine Results Page.

You type something into a search engine, and you get a page (or many, many pages) of results. That page is called a SERP.

• CPCs – Cost per Click

See Pay-per-Click above. Just a different term for the same thing.

• CTR – Click-through-rate

It’s how advertisers measure the success of an online ad or email. It measures users activity on the page. When they first clicked the ad and how long they spent on subsequent pages (if any time at all).

• B2C – Business to Consumer.

Also known as retail. The grocery store, the mall, the bakery down the street – all of them are B2C.

And as a bonus, here’s a question that I was curious about. Google will penalize you if you spam SEO, or stuff keywords. I wasn’t too sure exactly how they did that, so here’s my research!

When Google penalizes a website, they manually override their algorithm and either bring your webpage down in rankings on SERPs, or they remove you completely from the search results. However, Google doesn’t often penalize people – their algorithm does.

 

Are there any I missed? Did I get my facts wrong? Let me know, and I’ll add/edit!

Have a wonderful day, everybody!

An Arrow

I’ve been seeing this quote thrown around quite a bit lately:

To me, it’s new. That may be because I rediscovered the magic of Pinterest and spend too much time on it.

Regardless, I just have a quick blurb of thought on this quote, and others like it. It’s almost pessimistic, but I’m trying to look at things from a realist perspective.

The universe doesn’t work that way. It’s a sad, but true fact. The universe does not set you up to drag you backwards, then send you flying forward into a better tomorrow.

Now I’m going to push Negative Nancy out, and give the spot to Realistic Ramona.

We do that ourselves. This quote isn’t true, but it IS inspiring. It instills hope into our souls. So what if that quote is lying? That shouldn’t matter. Keep muddling through the mess until you get to the other side where there’s a hot shower and fluffy bath towels waiting on the other side.

Take the muck that life throws at you and make lemonade out of THAT. Because lemonade out of lemons is just too easy. You’re strong enough to make lemonade out of whatever you damn well please, and it’ll be the best lemonade anybody has ever had.

And even if you can’t make lemonade out of the powder mix, that’s just a metaphor anyways. Do what you do, and do it so well that anybody judging you will be so embarrassed they’ll cut their tongues off.

Why?

Because you can. THAT’S why.

Life is going to throw every single evil thing it can at you at some point in time. Every one of us is stronger than that, though. We all have the potential to be something amazing. The reason why we aren’t is because some people just don’t see the potential within themselves. They resign themselves to a life of mediocrity, boredom, and sadness.

Please, don’t let that be you. Be amazing. Be the person everybody else wants you to be. People may hate you. Those people are the ones who have given up on finding and enhancing their potential. They are jealous that you haven’t given up.

Do it, my friends, and do it well.

On Disappearing and Thoughts

I said I’d post once a week.

Okay, I lied. But it’s because, as I said before, I’m not interested in posting about anything boring like what I had for lunch. That’s not blog-worthy, unless I am a fantastic cook or am doing a restaurant review.I wanted to write something that I feel is important. Something that you want to read.

Well, here’s the start. I still don’t have an idea on a specific blog I could write. So a random jumble of random posts at incredibly random times is what you’ll get until I can come up with something I think is good. And that will take a while, I’m a picky perfectionist.

So this post is going to be just a random jumble of thoughts, that I want to post. Normally I wouldn’t be okay with this. Posts need more organization. Well, this post does have some organization. These thoughts are more of self-reflections I’ve had, especially recently.

With college, I’ve noticed a lot of growing up has happened to me in a very short span of time. This has lead to a lot of stress involving falling out with friends, maturing, and having to change my actions. But that’s all negative things. And thankfully, negative things do have positives to offer – learning. I’ve learned a lot in these past weeks that have been chalk-full of these varied stresses. I feel it’s important to share.

We young adults, college students, what-have-you, often get a bad rep. We party, we break all sorts of laws, we just do stupid things because we’re immature and we don’t know, even though we’re expected to – apparently. I’m just trying to show that that isn’t always the case. I’m a 20 year old, sophomore in college. According to stereotypes, I should be out breaking these laws and whatnot. Instead, I’m growing up.

I’ve come to realize that having a social life is not a big deal. I don’t need a serious group of friends to be happy. The only thing that I, personally, want out of life is to feel valued. I need to do something purposeful. I need to feel as though I am needed. That is what truly would make me happy. And having friends is one way to do that. But when your friends blow you off, it hurts. This is where the lesson came in. Stop letting it hurt, and find a new way to feel needed. I’ve determined that I’m spending too much time lazing around. More time needs to be dedicated to things like a job or internship, or a new hobby. I can fulfill my needs without having to rely on others.

I’m free of that, and that freedom is a beautiful thing.

And speaking of beautiful, this is where the next thing I’ve learned comes in. As a woman (though I am somewhat tempted to say ‘girl’) I’m obsessed with my looks in the way that I see a model on the cover of a magazine and hate myself more. I’m starting to realize that I truly need to stop that. I can never look like that, my bones cannot just shift whichever way I please. I am pretty, but not the strikingly-gorgeous pretty. I’m the pretty that you’d expect from a mother in the 50’s. Except I’m not a mother, but my point is that I don’t have an incredibly angular face, I’m not tall and bony. I have softer features, and I’m starting to be okay with this. I can make it work. My whole life I’ve dressed down, because I don’t have any sort of confidence and I don’t know what fashionable even is. I don’t wear makeup, I don’t do my hair, I don’t wear cute clothes. I dress as casual as you can get. And all of that is because I’ve had such a lack of confidence in my looks.

And there’s my lesson: Enough of that. I can be confident in my looks, because they are mine. Nobody can copy my looks. I don’t have an identical twin to worry about. The next step in this lesson is confidence is learning how to work it. And it will take time. I’m okay with that.

 

In all, these lessons I’ve learned are tough. They hit home harder than a freight train into a brick wall. It even hurts a little bit. But I’m already coming to value these lessons as incredibly important. They are things I need to take with me, and hold on to. I need to use them to my advantage. And I especially need to use them to grow further. In the wise words of Mr. Rogers, “I don’t think anyone can grow unless he’s loved exactly as he is now, appreciated for what he is rather than what he will be.”

PR Advanced: Embrace the Possibilities

On Saturday, I went to PR Advanced, hosted by Boston University’s PRSSA (Public Relations Student Society of America). I’m not a national member yet, but I am a member of my chapter so I was welcome to come. I’m not yet a national member because I only discovered that this club even existed at the beginning of this month. I have to say that being apart of this club has already been well worth it, and next Fall I’ll be a dues-paying, national member. And I’m excited.

So anyways, PR Advanced. It did mean driving through Boston, which is horrible. But BU’s campus is very nice, it wasn’t raining or snowing yet, and also it was a Saturday at 8 in the morning, meaning no traffic, so the drive was not nearly as bad as it could have been. Myself and two other students from our chapter (including the President) came together. We go through registration, put our jackets in the coat room, and look at what the plan for the day is while getting some juice from the breakfast table.

The schedule went like this:

8-9: Registration/Breakfast

9-10:10: Keynote Speaker

10:25-11:25: Breakout Session #1

11:40-12:40: Breakout Session #2

12:50-2: Lunch

2:10-2:40: Special Presentation (BU PRSSA)

3-4: Career Panel

4-5: Career Fair

6 PM: Networking Reception

I’ll start from the Keynote Speaker (since I just went over Registration).

The Keynote was Rob Flaherty, CEO of Ketchum, which is a global PR firm. He was a fantastic speaker, and very entertaining. He brought a box with him, with 10 items. And using those 10 items, he taught us various things about the PR world. All of these things were oversized props, such as a giant die, 4 giant pushpins (real), and giant “iPod headphones” (which apparently are working speakers, making it even cooler). We were all given a number before entering the auditorium, and that’s how he decided who got what prop and was the “focus” of which story.

These stories were successful PR and marketing campaigns, such as the Nissan Pathfinder’s Improv-tastic Road Trip: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DuPHH5yj_rY. That one was personally my favorite. He also brought up how Doritos has been using fanmade SuperBowl ads for the past 7 years, and how that was also a good idea because it gets the customer involved more directly.

I wrote down what I thought was the most important advice:

The most effective marking is about the individual. What’s relevant to them?

You must be an artist and a writer: “You don’t have to go to art school to be creative.” – Rob Flaherty

Don’t just look at the customer, look at everybody.

Don’t fight back against negative publicity. Invite the critics in, and don’t be defensive!

Always do the right thing, and make sure your client is too. Take responsibility for anything bad that happens.

Everything is about the actions, not the words.

On to Breakout Sessions! There were a few options for both sessions. I was put into Connecting with Your Client, presented by Chris Meehan, Kate Finigan, Kate Weiss, Alyson Karoly, and moderated (mediated? not sure) by Todd Van Hoosear.

Good advice included:

Don’t say yes to every client – they’ll be happy, you’ll be miserable.

Emails can be very impersonal, so find ways to show your personality.

Don’t put anything out there (internet/social media) you may regret, regardless of clients.

Be extremely responsive and develop a relationship with them.

Understand the challenges of your client.

Be open and honest about the outcomes of certain actions with your clients. If they do xyz, make sure they’re informed that xyz could be a bad idea before going ahead with it.

When you go to an interview, don’t mention it on social media, because they are looking. If you do, show humility and teamwork.

Other Breakout Session 1’s were: The Social Business Culture presented by Vala Afshar, Effective Storytelling Through Video presented by Steve Garfield, and Analyzing the Success of Campaigns presented by DJ Capobianco.

Breakout Session 2 was the Road Less Travelled, presented by Rachel Sprung, Alison Morris, and Sean Carlson. I really didn’t take any notes, I was just too amazed at what they had done. Rachel and Alison both work for startup companies – HubSpot and Springpad, respectively. That is a massive risk in itself, and one I wouldn’t be likely to take. They took it, and are very successful. Sean Carlson simply took the time to travel all over, working part time for companies such as Google all while writing a book about his mother. The takeaway I got from this session was that if you have an opportunity for something interesting, and nothing holding you back, take it and run with it, because it can bring you to some surprising places.

Other Breakout Session 2’s were Breaking Barriers: How to Be Heard in Entertainment by Kion Sanders, Does Doing Good in Business Matter by Simon Bowers, and Keys to Content Marketing and Creativity by Rob Six.

And then we had lunch, which was just sandwiches, salad, and pasta salad. Not sure who made the food, but it was pretty good. There was also a speaker, though I can’t remember his name, but I believe he was one of the Deans at BU. I was too hungry to really think at that point. Also at lunch, we made cards for hospitialized kids as a part of our National Initiative, which was nice. I wish I took pictures of mine, but on the front I wrote BATMAN is a superhero… with a Batman symbol, and then talked about how they were even better than Batman, and how inspiring they were. Seriously, kids who are able to stay strong and awesome when faced with tough challenges like a serious illness are inspirational. Well, anybody is, but kids especially. They lose out on a lot of important aspects of childhood, which is sad.

Also, guess who was at our table, eating lunch with us? Kion Sanders. I just mentioned him above, but if you don’t know, he’s the guy that runs all of MTV’s social media and things like that. He’s a pretty big name (to me) and I was a little intimidated. He was a really nice guy though, and accepted people’s resumes’ and things like that. It was pretty cool!

After lunch there was a “special presentation”. I thought it was some sort  of secret special person to talk, and apparently so did everybody else, but it was really just information presented by the BU PRSSA and the national PRSSA about things like National Conference and how the planning for PR Advanced went. Nothing really very special, but okay.

The Career Panel was back in the same room that the Keynote was in, so we all sat back down. The speakers were Susan Baba from Proctor & Gamble, Rachel Leamon from Burston-Marsteller, Madeline Rubin from Edelman, Lauren Riley from Simmons College (and formerly Woman’s Lunch Place), and Laura Ogerri, who works for Senate President Therese Murray.

These women were here to talk to us about the different PR sectors, and their experiences in them. Susan Baba is in Corporate, Rachel Leamon and Madeline Rubin are in Agencies, Lauren Riley is in nonprofit, and Laura Ogerri is in government. Hearing about their experiences was very eyeopening. Before this, I had had my mind set on nonprofit PR (working for the ASPCA or Humane Society? Dream job. I love all the little furbabies.). I had been pretty dead-set against the rest, but after the career panel I realized I really need to try and get out and experience them all. Hopefully I can get an internship in each and really get my feet wet. Except for government. I am extremely opinionated, especially when it comes to politics. If I have to work for/with someone I disagree with, and the whole job is centered around that… it wouldn’t go so well!

After that was the Career Fair, featuring a whole list of different companies that you could get to know better and learn what they were about. Unfortunately I had to leave at that point, so I missed most of the career fair, and the networking reception, which was held at Eastern Standard down the street.

All in all, it was a lot of fun and I’m definitely going again next year. I’m even thinking of going to National Conference in October, but that’s in Philidelphia, so I’d have to save up to make sure I can pay to get there.

 

 

And in other news, I finally managed to get an application through to the Salem Animal Rescue League as a volunteer. For some reason they just weren’t going through. Yesterday I managed to get one in, and was immediately told to reserve a space for volunteer orientation. Hopefully I can work in canine care,  because that basically means dogs all day. If I were to win the lottery, I’d probably spend most of my time doing that. Unfortunately, I can’t make a good living off of caring for dogs. See why the ASPCA or Humane Society is my dream job? Puppies! ❤

Thanks for reading, and have a great day!
