Things we all do but hate to admit

11  Weird Habits I Hope you do too
Anna Talcott

The other day my co-workers and I were sharing the weird habits that we do at work. I shared mine expecting to get an, "OH MY GOODNESS ANNA, THAT IS SO WEIRD" reaction that did not get. Instead, it was a simple, "Wait, thats weird because I do that too." So at that moment, it clicked to me that everything I might be thinking is a weird habit is probably actually pretty common to almost EVERY human being on this earth. I am going to share some habits I have been thinking are weird that I hope you do too, if not then I just published an embarrassing article about myself that will probably be read at my wedding and funeral by my best friend.

1. When you have to set about 10 alarms just so you can wake up on time.


I HATE being late.


2. Having an altercation, good or bad, and then having it replay in your head for hours after.

You then think of tons of comebacks and things you should have said and done differently.


3. Liking things that are universally loved, but pretending it’s a unique side of you.



You are one in a million.


4. When you try to tell a funny story but can't because you laugh the whole way through.


Most of your friends claim they never know the full story, which probably goes a little something like this:

"Laugh, Laugh, half word, laugh, laugh, word, then laugh more, forget what you were saying, next conversation."


5. Going to a coffee shop to do work, but ending up just people watching.

This is why I can no longer go to Starbucks to study during finals week or any week at that.


6. Talking to your pets.

Yes, I do talk to my cat Princess and yes, her name is Princess.

(I use Facetime when I am away at school more to talk to my cat than my family.)

#notashamed



7. Talking with your hands.


For those of you that know me, you know talking with my hands sometimes can better communicate what I am saying.


8. Walking around a store for an hour contemplating one object because you want it, but don't need it.

It becomes a frustrating experience for you because you keep putting it down then picking it up.

9. Putting everything you own in your purse.

You know, just in case there is an attack and you have to move up into the mountains.

10. When you're meeting someone new, so you rehearse a conversation in your head before.

Because you do not like awkward encounters.

11. When walking around a store, sometimes you can visualize a cool Instagram photo.


Or you set up things in a cafe a certain way to take a picture because it matches your aesthetic you try to go for on your profile. (Totally Guilty as we can see below.)

There is so many more I can share but just in case I am setting myself up I will stop here. Well I hope even if you do not share any of these weird habits with me, you could at least laugh at them.

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.

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.
