8 Thoughts EVERY Girl Has While She's Getting A Brazilian

I started waxing fairly young, getting my first ever bikini wax at 14 and getting regular Brazilians at the age of 17. Shaving just seemed like such a hassle and so uncomfortable and I always heard about the benefits of waxing opposed to it, so I figured, why not? But every single awful thing you ever heard about waxing is true. Yes, it is painful as all hell, and YES, those ladies really do get up in there with absolutely no inhibition. No matter how often I've gotten waxed, there's just no getting used to the sensation of a stranger grabbing and prodding your genitals with their cold hands. Here's a list of everything that runs through my mind as I lay down on the table before my lady comes in.

How much is a quarter of an inch anyway?

They tell you to trim down to a quarter of an inch before your wax, but who knows what a quarter of an inch really is? Is anyone out there actually measuring this?

Can I put this wax off somehow?

Even though I already paid the subway fare to get here and I'm half-naked on this table that strangely looks like an operating table, seeing the hot wax container is giving me second thoughts...

I wish she did my eyebrows first...

I'm just saying, if she did my eyebrows first I would've been more prepared for the pain. On the other hand, if I'm in shock, maybe the wax will hurt less...

Why do they make it so hot in this room?

I don't know about y'all, but my wax lady always cranks the heat up to 90 degrees right before my wax, making the whole experience just that more uncomfortable.

Can my wax lady tell that I'm sweating?

I'm gonna have to take a second shower after this. (Also, yes, they can totally tell.)

I can't believe I still have flesh left after that last one

Excuse me, I need a breather just to get my heart rate down.

How much do you tip someone for this anyway?

Anything less than $10 seems rude, considering that they were right up in your coochie.

I can't wait to treat myself to some cute panties after this

7 for $27 at Victoria's Secret still on? I deserve cute lingerie after this.

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.

Waitlisted for a College Class? Here's What to Do!

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.

The Best Lines from the Fab Four

And in the end, the love you take is equal to the love you make

The sun is up, the sky is blue, it's beautiful and so are you

Love is old, love is new, love is all, love is you

There's nowhere you can be that isn't where you're meant to be

Life is very short, and there's no time for fussing and fighting, my friend

He say, "I know you, you know me", One thing I can tell you is you got to be free

Oh please, say to me, You'll let me be your man. And please say to me, You'll let me hold your hand

It was twenty years ago today, Sgt. Pepper taught the band to play. They've been going in and out of style, but they're guaranteed to raise a smile

Living is easy with eyes closed, misunderstanding all you see

Can you hear me? When it rains and shine, it's just a state of mind

Little darling, it's been long cold lonely winter. Little darling, it feels like years since it' s been here. Here comes the sun, Here comes the sun, and I say it's alright

We danced through the night and we held each other tight, and before too long I fell in love with her. Now, I'll never dance with another when I saw her standing there

I love you, I love you, I love you, that's all I want to say

You say you want a revolution. Well you know, we all want to change the world

All the lonely people, where do they all come from. All the lonely people, where do they all belong

Oh, I get by with a little help from my friends

Hey Jude, don't make it bad. Take a sad song and make it better

Yesterday, all my troubles seemed so far away. Now it looks as though they're here to stay. Oh, I believe in yesterday

And when the brokenhearted people, living in the world agree, there will be an answer, let it be.

And anytime you feel the pain, Hey Jude, refrain. Don't carry the world upon your shoulders

I'll give you all I got to give if you say you'll love me too. I may not have a lot to give but what I got I'll give to you. I don't care too much for money. Money can't buy me love

All you need is love, love is all you need

Whisper words of wisdom, let it be

Blackbird singing in the dead of night, Take these broken wings and learn to fly. All your life, You were only waiting for this moment to arise

Though I know I'll never lose affection, for people and things that went before. I know I'll often stop and think about them. In my life, I love you more

Obviously the best superpower.

There have been many lessons learned.

1. The importance of traditions.

2. How to be thankful for family and friends.

3. How to give back.

4. What the word "community" really means.

5. That it isn't about the destination, but the journey.

6. The consequences of making bad choices.

7. To trust people, until you have a reason not to.

8. To be welcoming and accepting of everyone.

9. How to be my own, individual person.

10. How to work for what I want.

11. How to be great at giving directions.

12. How to be humble.

13. To be well-rounded.

14. How to be great at conflict resolution.

15. The beauty of getting outside and exploring.

16. To be prepared for anything.

17. That you don't always have to do it alone.

18. How to be creative.

19. To brush off gossip.

I have never been so thankful to know you.
