15 Thoughts Every Person Who Hates Running Has While Running
U.S. DOD

This morning while I was out for a run I couldn't help but think to myself –– THIS SUCKS. I'm the type of person that makes myself exercise and makes myself go on runs because I have to. Because it's something I feel like I should do. Not because it's something I enjoy. By all means some days I would rather get sprayed by a skunk than go for a run. Ok, that might be an exaggeration but you get the point.

Running sucks and I know I'm not the only person in the world who thinks this. If you're anything like me or Taylor Swift for that matter then you despise running and everything it brings upon you.

Here are 15 thoughts every person who hates running has while running:

1. Is it normal to breathe this heavily?

2. Slow down your pace a little bit, maybe you won't sound like you are dying.

3. Alright, well now I'm walking so I guess we're walking. It's fine.

4. Are those people staring at me?

5. I bet they are laughing because I'm dripping sweat while walking.

6. I am so out of shape.

7. Honestly, does this ever not suck?

8. I bet it sucks forever and those people that tell you they "love" to run are saying it because they are lying to themselves.

9. Picking up the pace now. Just one foot in front of the other.

10. Why is that mom with the newborn in the stroller running faster than me?

11. Push yourself, girl. You'll never get anywhere if you don't.

12. Who am I kidding? I'm not really going far anyway.

13. If you make it to the corner then you can get ice cream for all your hard work.

14. That totally defeats the purpose of this run, but how good does Coldstone sound right now?

15. OK, that's it. I'm going home.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.
