I have many mantras, and I follow almost every single one of them. "Be Fearless," "You Can't Control the Waves but You Can Learn How To Surf," and "Hakuna Matata". But never have I ever lived by the "be patient" mantra. It drives me insane! Yes, I will wait, but not patiently. Here are the struggles every impatient person goes through:

1. Lines.

Whether you are waiting to pay for something or waiting to get on a bus, waiting in lines drives you insane.

2. When cashiers talk to you.

And they make the process slower! Can you just tell me how much do I owe?

3. Commercials.

I already know that Papa Johns has a promotion this week, please don't remind me every 10 minutes. This is why we love Netflix, no commercials or unnecessary adds.

4. Slow people on the street.

Oh, damn tourist and people who will take forever to walk on the street. You have to hold yourself back from punching them or screaming at them.

5. Fast food lines.

It's called fast food for a reason, so don't make me wait more than 20 minutes between the moment I came in and the moment you give me my slice of pizza!

6. Waiting for an email or text.

Please just answer!

7. When the food takes forever to arrive.

And all you are eating is bread with butter. You even finished your second refill by the time your appetizer arrives.

8. Flight delays.

just don't.

9. Calling your phone/internet provider.

"Miss Margulis, can you turn the device off/on? Oh, that didn't work? Please hold on while we fix the problem" And that's how an hour goes by.

10. Waiting another week for your TV show to be released.

Wouldn't it be magical if we could just watch the entire season in one sitting?

11. Helping someone use a new device.

and this is how friendships end.

12. Waiting a year for the next season to be released

C'mon Orange is The New Black! Come out faster!

13. When your professor takes forever to grade your test or essay.

14. Waiting for your book, planner or DVD to arrive.

or anything you purchased online.

16. When people are late

Seriously, when you tell me you want to meet at 7:00, I expect you to meet me at 7:00. It's 7:10 and I already thought about every single thing LiLo has done in her life. EVERY.SINGLE.THING!
