8 Rude Things We All Occasionally Do

I don't mean to be rude, sometimes there are just bad days.

We all have the tendency to do terrible things, regardless of how kind-hearted we actually are. I guess we can chalk it up to human nature, or occasional selfishness, but whatever the case, here are some truly s***** things we all do.

1. “Oh, I just now saw your text!”

I might been busy and not seen your text, or I might just have decided I didn’t want to talk to you.

2. “I totally didn’t notice that piece of spinach in your teeth.”

“I was looking at your eyes, I didn’t even notice!” This may be true, but more likely I didn’t know how to bring it up so I just pretended I didn’t see.

3. “Oh I’m sorry I didn’t hold the door for you, I didn’t see you.”

I may not have seen you, or you may have been walking just a bit too slow for me to rationalize holding the door for you.

4. “Oh I’m sorry I was walking so slow, I didn’t realize you were behind me.”

I knew you were behind me, I just want to watch the world burn.

5. *See’s frenemy while wearing sunglasses. Ignores them.*

Phew so glad I avoided that social interaction! Thank god!

6. *See someone hesitate while deciding to get in line. Runs to get in line before them.*

If you were taking that long to get in line I cannot imagine how long it’ll take you to order.

7. A person asks, "Are you stressed?" You respond, “Yep” and keep walking.

You are from the dumpster. Of course, I'm stressed, don't remind me just how stressed I am. Thank you!

8. When you have delicious food and don’t want to share.

“Oh yeah, I do have 12 doughnuts ... Yeah, you can’t have any ... Why, oh well, because I promised my entire dorm building 1/32 of a doughnut each so I really don’t have any to spare ...” It’s not true, I have serious doughnut eating plans tonight and I cannot share.

Whatever reason you have for doing crappy things, just remember, minimizing rudeness leads to the maximum amount of friends! But, jokes aside, having a bad day and being rude every now and then can be excused, as long as it's only a rare occurrence.

5 Things To Do That Are Better Than Writing A Paper

Don't waste your time trying to write that paper when there are so many more interesting things you could be doing.

Writing a paper is never fun and is rarely rewarding. The writer's block, the page requirement, be specific, but don’t summarize, make sure you fixed any grammatical errors, did you even use spellcheck? and analyze, analyze, analyze.

Papers can be a major pain. They take up so much time and effort that by the end of the process you hate yourself and you hate the professor for making life so difficult. Questions of your existence start roaming in your mind. Am I even cut out for college if I can’t write a single paper? Am I even capable of taking care of myself if I lack the energy to open my laptop and start typing?

sisters

I can barely remember back when I was the only child. Most would say it’s because it is extremely difficult to remember things as a toddler but I would say it's because I was bored until my sister came along. My mother always says how important the "sister bond" is and with every year that passes I realize how right she is. Instead of writing a novel about all of the wonderful things there are about having a sister I decided to list a few of them instead.

It is the time of our lives that we are beginning to enter the adult world and most of us, if not all of us, have no idea what we are doing. It's like starting a video game, but skipping the tutorial. We're all just running around aimlessly hoping we accidentally do something right that moves us along the right path. Now that graduation has just happened, or is right around the corner for some of us, it's time to start thinking about how we are going to take care of ourselves once we are on our own.

If you’re anything like me, you love a good cup of coffee. My coffee always comes from Starbucks; I refuse to drink it from anywhere else. Over the years, it’s become one of my biggest addictions.
