Because we aren't the only ones that come back at the end of the day and complain about all the annoyances of the day.

17 Things People Do That Annoy Us Every Day

The following are some annoying things that we have encountered during our time in college and just life in general. Enjoy.

1. When you're walking and you come across some slow walkers who seem to have no sense of urgency...

Like seriously, do you have nowhere to be?!


2. When people just stop in the middle of a busy walkway to talk.

Helllllllooo? Please move to the side so other people can get on with their lives.


3. When you're in line for something and the person behind you is basically breathing down your neck...

I need some personal space, please.


4. When you're trying to exit a conversation and the other person just isn't taking a hint

Hey, great talk, but I'm late for a nap.


5. When people just start macking in public....like in the cafeteria, or in class, or in the library, or in places where you just don't mack.

Don't. Stop. Right now, stop.


6. When people ask if they can join a group of your friends but they ask to join while already making themselves a part of the group

JUST KIDDING. We don't actually hate you. 97 percent of the time we want you to join but it's just a pointless question. I mean... sure, what are we gonna say, no?

7. When people who aren't in charge and have no authority, try to act like a know-it-all and run the show...

PSA: you aren't in charge for a reason.

8. On a similar, but slightly different, note... when people think they are incredibly talented at something and they just aren't. Singing. Singing is a good example of this.

And it's okay! Not everyone can be talented at everything!

9. When people use the bathroom stall next to you when literally every other stall is open.

GET THEE GONE!

10. Gym woes pt 1: When there are 20 treadmills or bikes or ellipticals open but they just HAVE to use the piece of equipment right next to you. And you're just trying to hold it together like...

This is comparable to the bathroom dilemma in level of annoyance.

11. Gym woes pt 2: When girls sit/lay on the mats texting or laughing or gramming or scrolling through facebook.

Some of us actually have to work for those abs. Laughing doesn't cut it. Move your butts.

12. When people just aren't funny. No one is laughing. How are they always the only people that don't know they aren't funny?

Look around. Notice that no one is laughing.

13. When everything, no matter what the topic, will always, without fail, circle back to being all about them.

Even this young child knows that this is out of control selfish behavior.

14. When people just don't get social cues.

This could cover a whole host of things but just generally annoying overall.

15. When people around you check themselves out in every single reflective surface near them.

Your reflection is the same in the gym mirror now as it was in the window of the door to the gym that you just looked at yourself in approximately two minutes ago.

16. When people in classes or meetings ask questions that are unnecessary or were already answered.

Please do not speak just to hear your own voice. Do not prolong our time spent here... we have things to do!

17. When no one asked for their advice but they just have to give it anyways.

We just don't care but thanks.

Apologies for the level of sass here but sometimes, at the end of the day, people around us have pushed every button and we find ourselves feeling like Monica.

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.
