Because Nobody likes to Feel This Way

8 Feelings We Hate to Feel
Sunflower Storytime

Sometimes saying or feeling what you are experiencing at the moment can be a pain. I know personally, I hate feeling so here's a list of some that make me uncomfortable:

1. Guilt - Nobody can possibly enjoy the pit in your stomach feeling as though you are responsible for something. Talking about it can make you feeling better but some people it can seems like you are dwelling on that experience or emotion.

2. Loneliness - As much as people like to be alone, sometimes we crave people, even in the most basic ways. Feeling another presence or even hearing someone else's voice remind us all that we aren't alone in this big world.

3. Failure - Who wants to hear a story where you didn't get what you want or lost the thing? Well, it is not a bad idea to hear more of these. Hearing about someone else's failure tends to make us feel like it is okay to fail. It is a good reminder that we are going to fail at things in life and that is okay and it important to the life learning process. We aren't immortal and are supposed to fail.

4. Anger - How awkward is it to be angry? We are in this state of irrationality where it is harder to fix the situation at hand? Most commonly refered to as a useless emotion, once anger is let out, life tends to feel a little more bearable.

5. Overwhelmed - How much it sucks to be here in this stressed and struggling state. Feeling as though the world is all on you is terribly unbearable and make all the things you are doing feel a million times harder. Learning how to cope with stress and this feeling is a long process for most.

6. Rejected - After not getting that reply back or someone not feeling the same way, can feel horrible, of course. This state tends to leave a person bitter and a little sad because that thing you wanted to happy is not now. The rejection could have been done in the nicest way but still can leave any person a little raw feeling. A good way to deal with this feeling is to just ride it out for a bit and just give yourself a little break from life.

7. Weak - Personally, this is one of least favorite emotions ever. I hate the idea of someone catching me at a weak time and spilling my emotions all over them. But I know it is a part of life and needs to happen because even strong people feel weak. As I said before we are all human and it is best to just feel these feelings instead of by-passing them.

8. Sadness - Feeling sad is obviously quite sad. The lamenting that needs to be done is important because all feelings are important to life. Nobody likes being sad but it is a natural emotion to get when you don't get a good grade in class or hearing bad news to just feeling kind of bummed out. Give yourelf a break and if you need to cry just do it because would ever tell a friend not to cry? Well sometimes you need to treat yourself like your friend.

Letting all of these hard and complex feeling pass by is important to living a good life because these all are very natural and common to experience.

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

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.
