Welcome to Friday! Whether it’s been a long or short week for you, it’s time to sit back and take part in our longest-running tradition on the site – best and worst of the week. Tell us your best moment of the week, your worst moment, and what’s generally been on your mind.
To kick off the weekend, we’ve got a couple of fun videos for you. Lana found this commercial for Jennifer Lopez’s new fashion line at American store Kohl’s – it’s pretty funny and we’ve been singing ‘Jenny from the Block’ by JLo all morning..

And the music video we’ve been watching all week after Beyonce announced her pregnancy at the MTV VMA awards (this video also won Best Choreography – watch it and you’ll understand why!)..

Worst: time of month has knocked me a bit. I'm exhausted, bloated and really heavy.
Best: This is my 1st period since I fell pregnant with daughter who is now 16 months. I'm so excited that this means I can start to think about another baby.
This week has been a tough week.
I had the police call me to kind of talk me through what's going to happen when the guy from the bus is released in 7 or 8 weeks (yup,quickest turn around for a case I've ever heard of too!). I hate it. Just....don't want to deal with it.
I've been at work 8 weeks and they STILL haven't paid me. I'm financially up shit creek. I'm assured that I'll be paid by Thursday, but I feel like they've handled this really poorly.
Overwhelmed with uni and life. 5 subjects, 2 part time jobs & volunteer commitments was a dumb idea. Even more dumb given how sick I've been this year. Oh brain, again you evade me.
The nutritionist I had a consult with on Thursday about recovery from my ED called me over the weekend & told me basically that she's not comfortable working with me given how sick I've been & that she's worried she'll get too involved.
Family stuff really sucks right now.
Best things about this week:
One assignment down.
I spent the weekend with some amazing volunteers.
Much coffee
Work is keeping me grounded.
OMM: I've had a few domestic violence kids in at work. It makes me so angry that we, as a society, are doing such an abysmal job of protecting children at risk. If we were any good at it, I wouldn't be seeing them in crisis, at the coal face.
