1. Loud chewing

When is it not annoying when someone chews extremely loudly? It sucks when you can hear their food smacking and it all makes uncomfortable noises that you can't bear... Worst part? The person usually isn't even aware that they're being so loud.

2. Clicking

It's so distracting when you're in class trying to concentrate, take a test, or complete an assignment, and someone is nonstop clicking a pen in your ear. Any sort of clicking is distracting, but pen-clicking definitely tops the list.

3. Blocking the sidewalk

It's the worst when you're stuck behind a cluster of people because they're taking up the whole sidewalk. There is almost nothing you can do in this situation besides walk into the street and risk your life or deal with it and try not to scream.

4. Holding doors

When you hold the door for someone and they don't say anything, it hurts a small part of you—specially if you went out of your way to hold the door or if they were a distance behind you. The least you could do is nod, or give some sort of acknowledgment, right?

5. Talking over you

There is nothing more awful than someone talking over you mid-sentence. It's as if what you were saying had no importance or value whatsoever.

6. When someone else bumps into you, but they act like it was you

This is especially true on the subway or bus when it's crowded. Do you really want to be that close to a stranger? No. If you bump into me, sorry, but it's not my fault.

7. Those people that don't have time to answer your text, but have time to post on social media

There's definitely a difference between forgetting or not seeing the message once or twice, and completely flat-out ignoring a person. Can't you just text back?

8. Being quiet in theaters

It sucks when people won't keep their mouth shut when you're trying to watch a movie. You paid money to sit in the theater and watch this brand new movie, but those other people don't have the decency to stay quiet for a couple of hours and enjoy their money's worth?

9.Texting loudly

On public transportation, it sucks when people text and their volume is all the way up and they're texting about a thousand people at once. It's hard to deal with constant clicking, beeping, chirping, and other noises.

10. Shoulder sleeping

What do you do when someone on the bus falls asleep on your shoulder? Do you wake them up? Let them sleep? Push them over? What is there to do in this situation? Of course, it depends upon what kind of person you are, but nonetheless, the decision is a difficult one.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
