such is life 

A phrase used when one tries to find a way to accomplish something that should be relatively easy, and finds the task overbearing due to outside influences.
At that point one might surrender, and choose to accept things as they are. This is NOT the same as giving up and is NOT associated in any way with acts of physical or mental abuse

An analytical or casual thought process used to define one's abililty to understand that some things cannot be changed by the human species, and therefore requires acceptance

casual frustration
I did all the right things, and they didn't work this time. Oh well, There's nothing else I can do. I'll get over it....... such is life........

I wish the flowers would last all year, but I understand that's the way nature works.....such is life.

Eternity leave 

When some resigns or retires from a job, they are on "eternity leave". This can also refer to someone who has passed away, especially someone who worked somewhere for a long time, retired/resigned, then passed away later.
Oh I'm sorry, you didn't know that Kelly is on eternity leave? She resigned and moved to Hawaii!

With regrets I would like to inform you that my boss is officially on eternity leave. I will never see or hear them again. Ever.

girl grip 

The ability girls and women have developed to hold several items at once in one hand. The skill has been developed due to the lack of pockets in women's clothing.
I thought she'd need multiple trips to carry her phone, keys, wallet, and Starbucks to her car since she needed the other hand to open the door, but she used her impressive girl grip to carry everything in one hand.
