It’s time to enter the so-called “real” world. Here are some hard lessons you will soon learn in this next exciting phase of your life.

1. Wages
You’ll be paid a whole lot less than you think thanks to those lovely things we call taxes. Never heard of ’em? You will soon.

tumblr_m34h2vX6To1r3bcb9o1_5002. Co-workers
Some of them won’t like you, it’s natural, but try to learn from them. All they see is this self proclaimed hot shot coming straight out of college whereas more than likely you’re a diamond in the rough and need to be cut and polished before you can be left to your own devices.

Scarlett-Johanson-Poison-Everyone-Hate-Job-Coffee-Gif3. Your boss
He or she may have been on the interview panel, and may have asked you personal questions in order to assess your suitability for the position but don’t for a second think that they didn’t forget your name the second you walked out the door.

Coworkers4. Don’t stand still
Technology is changing every day, exponentially and the days of getting locked into a civil service position for life are becoming less and less. Self  improvement and up-skilling are the key to you staying relevant while moving forward. So take advantage of any courses or seminars that will better you. If you stand still you’ll become an unmotivated drone!

the-office-25. Bringing in lunch
You probably learned this in school but keep the smelly lunches to a minimum. Healthy, scentless food will be better for you in the long run, both in popularity and in health situations.

tumblr_mcgxulgneq1ri5c15o1_500_zpsc788be346. Gossip
The water cooler conversations as they are now well known throughout the world. Learn to keep your comments neutral and rarely gossip about people in your new work. You don’t know how long the person you are speaking to has been there or where the allegiance lies. Just nod and smile, people, nod and smile!

Thats-What-She-Said-Michael-Scott-Last-Episode7. Inter office relationships
Look, it’s going to happen. People just can’t control themselves and make extremely poor choices but make sure it doesn’t hinder you. The fewer people that know, the better. You don’t want to become the gossipee, do you?

joanroger8. Take the right “sick days” off
Some people never take a day off, some people do. But unless you have your spine hanging out maybe don’t take a Monday off after a massive weekend on the piss. Go in and deal with everything “the fear” has to throw at you. The odd Monday is fine, of course, but repetition will be noted.

sick9. Office parties
Please be on your best behaviour at these events. It’s so easy to swallow a bit too much eggnog at the Christmas party and deliver a few home truths about your boss, but that kind of behaviour will land you straight in HR on your first day back.

2yynho110. You will make mistakes
Ask questions because everybody makes mistakes. If you keep your mouth shut, you will walk head first into these mistakes so take the initiative and ask someone who can you a heads up!

Whether you’re in Mary I, St. Pats, Marino, or any other form of “teacher training” college, you know that we as the future educators of our nation’s youth have a variety of problems that others just don’t understand. From placement to assignments, we’re subjected to a variety of problems that you just won’t find anywhere else. So here is just a sample of the many student teacher problems faced every year:

1. The subjects

Confused-Little-Girl-Is-At-Loss-For-Words

Upon entering college as freshers, students are expecting to be challenged in terms of learning and amounts of alcohol consumed and while it’s safe to say the latter is most definitely true, the subjects studied can sometimes leave a lot to be desired for.

2. The stale jokes

laughing

“Teaching? I suppose you’re only in it for the holidays!” Every. Time.

3. Spotting pupils in public

molly-cant-hide

Don’t make eye contact, don’t make eye contact…Damn. Queue awkward wave.

4. Studying for exams

Joel-Mchale-Doesnt-Know-How-To-Study-on-Community-Gif

Nothing is quite like a group of student teachers studying for upcoming exams. Tensions run high, people break down and you begin to convince yourself that primary school Irish has definitely gotten harder.

5. Explaining the course to your friends

confused-princess-jasmine

There is nothing quite like the look on your friends faces when you explain you can’t go out because you have to make a powerpoint based on two websites for kids. There is little joy in having to explain your course to your friends simply because they will refuse to believe that what you do is tough, which makes the fact you barely passed a module even worse.

6. Placement

britney-confused - Copy

This is what every student teacher looks forward to. THIS is why you wanted to do teaching right? To stand up at the top of the class and see students learning material for the first time. You taught them this, they’d be nothing without your charts and materials and worksheets.

What nobody tells you is that those charts, materials and worksheets take time. Spending 4+ hours preparing materials for the following day became a reoccurring ritual and the sound of a printer churning out worksheet after worksheets can make even the sanest person begin shouting nonsensical abuse at the machine.

Lord help you if you run out of ink or laminator sheets after the shops close.

1. Tell people you love them

Whether you think someones really hot, or the person who just said something tooootalllyyy hilarious, or the person you just met in the queue. ‘Oh my God, seriously, I actually love you though, like, seriously!’

2. Break out the 90′s music video dance moves

I’m talking Elton John’s epic cheesy tune ‘I’m Still Standing‘ kinda dancing, and shamelessly, then your mate spots you from across the beer pong table, and suddenly it escalates into a serious dance off.

3. Can’t even

What can’t you even? It doesn’t matter, because you can’t… even.

4. Flirt outrageously with your best friend

She is HOT.

5. PDA

Couples are the worst for this, we get it, you’re in love. Take it home please.

6. Karaoke

Despite not having a note in your head, you’re the next Whitney, and nothing is gonna stand in the way of you becoming a superstar.

7. Emotions

http://31.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lyfkx77Hfg1r9orhdo1_500.gif

Happy to sad to angry to really sad to laughing to really sad again. So many feels.

8. Makeup

You knew it was a bad idea to bring the bronzer. Now it’s being passed around the twenty girls standing in front of the mirror. Ewwww.

9. Bad outfit choices

That snapback does not go with your dress, and no you do not look better in a onesie.

10. Nap

That slump you hit after the first 6 or 7 drinks, then the row that follows when you sneak of for a lie down and your friend finds you having a shhneeeaky kip.

11. Spend the night in the toilet

‘I’m just goin’ for a quick wee!’ Only to emerge ages later when the lights are on and the music has stopped.

12. Drag up the past

Forgiven, never forgotten. Especially after two tequilas.

13. Snapchat/Facebook/Twitter

http://reblog-gif.tumblr.com/

Nooooooo.

14. Spend all of the money

Who wants a shooooot? It’s on meeee!

15. Make plans

Arranging to meet people who you have no intention of meeting, or arranging dates with people you have no interest in.

16. Hanky Panky

Shifting people you shouldn’t be shifting, the odd one night stand… Blame the beer goggles.

17. Steal

MINE gif

Traffic cones, shopping trolleys, potted plants, beer mats, some ornaments from the neighbours garden and even dogs. Put it back, ya hooligan!

18. Deny that you’re drunk

I’m fiiiiiine

19. Lose everything

House keys, purse, phone, ID, dignity, we’ve all been there.

20. Underestimate

We’ll all walk to that club, sure ‘it’s only 2 minutes away!’, but sober you knows that it’s a good 15 minute trek, and you’re wearing ridiculous shoes, best make that 20 minutes then.

21. Smoke

You don’t smoke, you never have, and you probably never will. You’re coughing uncontrollably, you look silly and your mouth is going to taste like ass in the morning.

22. Talk to yourself

Everyone is guilty of this one. Whether you’re complimenting yourself or just standing at the mirror saying ‘I am soooooo drunk’ to your reflection and pulling faces, it’s pretty hilarious to be fair.

3.Self-pity takes over

4. You purposely say no to social plans just in case your ex is there

5. Then you find out they are already in another relationship!

6. So, you just sit in the dark, cuddling a bottle of wine. Obviously not the best idea.

7. Then you come to the realisation: “It was all THEIR fault!”

8. You try to find closure by deleting them from all social media outlets along with any photo of them anywhere. And their friends too.

9. And you get all of your family to do the same.

10. Then you run into them out of the blue

Nicole Richie is never seen looking anything but pristine and polished these days – but that doesn’t mean she takes herself too seriously!

The designer uploaded this hilarious selfie to her Instagram account with the caption: “I Woke Up Like This. #flawless.”

The photo doesn’t show Nicole’s face but her purple hair looks rather different to normal…

We love that Nicole can make fun of herself, as well as making fun of all the celebrities who take perfect “I Woke Up Like This” selfies.

Oh ya, they just left because THEY were needy and obsessed. Sure.

He’s obsessed with himself, and the gym.. all he talks about is working out! Oh hey Mr.Abercrombie and Fitch.. did you buy you top in the children’s section so your muscles would try to escape out the sleeves? #weknow

4. No aspirations in life
So he’s left school/college, has no job, and has no intentions of getting one either.. This guy is more than happy to sign on each month, and get paid to drive around in his Passat, creeping 17 year olds. He doesn’t have a plan in life, or hasn’t set any goals.

They stalk the library, they head home for the entire study week or they crawl into a ball and cry. Which person do you become during exam season?

1. The Confident Planner
Before even opening the paper and attempting to read any of the questions, you write down the exact time you’re allowing yourself for each section. You got this.

2. The Brave Level-Headed Soldier
If the soundtrack to your life was available, you would hear the pounding force of ‘Eye of the Tiger’ or the soaring string melody that plays as William Wallace fights for Scotland and FREEDOM. Armed and ready with your brand new pen in hand, and channelling every motivational speaker you watched in the last few weeks, you underline everything you think is important , making you feel in control; while the exam may take your life (social that is…let’s not be extreme) IT WILL NEVER TAKE YOUR FREEDOM: Enter William Wallace…

Dating can be a very awkward experience, especially in the early stages when you know nothing about each other and try to present the best possible portrait of yourself. You try and hide your embarrassing secrets and are both trying to figure out if you really like one another enough to pursue the relationship any further. Maybe some of these awkward moments ring a bell?

1. The first time you go to hold their hand.
This can be a difficult moment to judge. When is the “appropriate time” to hold their hand. You’re wondering if they’re thinking the same thing but struggle to get a good read of the situation.

rejected-o2. Getting food in your teeth
Getting home from your date, you catch a glimpse of yourself in the mirror and notice an enormous piece of spinach hanging between your two front teeth! How long has it been there? Did they notice? WHY didn’t they say anything?!

Capture3. How to pay the bill?
Is he going to pay the bill or maybe you should offer? Or maybe you should go halves? Oh, we just don’t know.

date_man_paying_bill4. Trying to hide that you’re seeing a couple of people at once
What if they think you’re exclusive?

giphy5. Ordering the chicken wings
There is officially no way to do this gracefully.

giphy6. When it’s time to have “the talk!”
Oh no, you’re so not ready for this!

giphy7. You have to use the bathroom.
It’s inevitable.

giphy8. Seeing each other naked
Seeing each other in the nip for the first time can be awkward, especially if one, or both of you, are self-conscious about parts of their bodies. Just know that if one of you is self-conscious, then the other is probably as well.

jjj1. Do you go for the hug or the kiss?
The age-old dilemma of how to say goodbye to your date – do you go for the ass-out friendly hug, a cute peck on the cheek or go ultra-attacking and lean in for the kiss on the lips? Pay attention to the signals that the other is giving off because they will be thinking about the same problem as you are. Don’t over-analyse it. Find the middle ground on your first date and then take it from there next time around. Save yourself the embarrassment!

The professional procrastinator has the ability to see an interest in every single thing around them…except what they should be doing. Have you experienced any of these?

1. Sleeping.

You have a few days extra at home before you have to make the trek back to college, and everyone knows that no bed is as comfortable as your bed at home.

2. Binge watching netflix series

3. Obsessively painting nails a different colour…every hour

4. Trying out every single hairstyle on Lauren Conrad’s website

5. Shopping

6. Downloading new music

Illegally downloading tonnes of tracks to get your pre-drinks playlist ready for summer. Sure it doesn’t even take that long!

7. Dancing.

8. Playing an instrument.

Sure the parents will only be delighted that you’ve taken an interest in the violin after the years of lessons they forced you to take.

9. Trying out new make-up looks

10. Making millions of cups of tea

So you’ve been going out with this guy for a while, but there’s no sign of his friends – what’s going on? Don’t be alarmed just yet, here are some perfectly reasonable explanations.

1. He’s embarrassed by them. 

friends_110_ross_marcel_ready_to_mingle

They’re not the most mature bunch…

2. He acts differently around them. 

tumblr_m81sz6YGNt1rzhjqmo1_500

He might think you’re not going to like the way he is when he’s with them. Maybe they bring out the binge-drinking idiot in him, or the giant nerd, or the guy who can only speak in South Park references.

3. They’re dicks. 

f617f07bbe9819290c6626ca772bf84e4de5f8790f52b28793478d739b146e53

4. He’s not that close with them. 

tumblr_inline_moxo2zlpEB1qz4rgp

Some people don’t really surround themselves with close friends, just drinking buddies or casual acquaintances. He might just not have anyone that he feels is important enough to meet you and vice versa.

5. They’re party animals. 

freaking-out

Maybe his friends are so YOLO-CHUG-THIS-BEER-BONG-HOW-MUCH-WEED-CAN-YOU-FILL-YOUR-LUNGS-WITH-AT-ONCE intense that he’s afraid of bringing you around and scaring you off forever.

6. They don’t live nearby.

giphy-1

 Some people stay great friends with their high school buddies, and after everyone goes to school and gets jobs and shuffles around the world, meeting up with them for an introduction might not be that feasible. Don’t freak out if he hasn’t arranged for a visit by three months. You’ll meet them eventually.

7. He thinks you don’t want to meet them. 

giphy

He might just assume you have no interest in meeting his friends. It never hurts to tell him, “He sounds fun. When can we all hang out?” Communication!

8. He doesn’t think you’re that serious.

kanye-shrug-large

 Meeting his friends is like meeting his parents: he’s declaring that he plans on you being in his life for a while. If you guys are still in the casual dating phase, or he thinks you are, he’s probably not going to bring you around just yet.

9. He hasn’t met your friends, either. Even though they’re so nice.
