11 Things To Check In Your Life To See If You Might Be Crazy

You might be crazy if you got really excited when you read this headline. Or you just might be curious. I think deep down, we all have those quirks that set us apart from our peers. We all have those "special things" about us. I've done a few crazy things in my life, most of which I will never repeat simply because it's not worth it. It was fun once, but you won't be seeing me doing it again. I'm sure you have your own list of weird things you've done before. Below is a short list of mine. Enjoy for your own amusement.

You might be crazy if you wash your face with toothpaste.

I've actually done this a couple of times. It's refreshing. Just don't get the toothpaste in your eyes. It stings.

You might be crazy if you check your alarm 15 times before going to bed.

A little over a year ago I overslept my alarm and was almost an hour late for work. I don't know if I just set my alarm wrong or what, but ever since then I've set two alarms every single night of the week and check them again and again before I go to bed. I'm neurotic.

You might be crazy if you drink 4 giant cups of coffee on the daily (this doesn’t include cups of tea).

I know some people drink more than this, but most folks I talk to are surprised to find out that I drink several cups a day. I just LOVE coffee. I love the smell, the taste, and the fact that when I drink it I feel ready to take on the world!

You might be crazy if you “accidentally” found out the schedule of the guy you have a crush on and know exactly where he’s going to be every moment of the day.

Not gonna lie, this is pretty embarrassing. I've done this a couple of times

You might be crazy if you stand when you eat, instead of sitting down.

I don't know what it is exactly. I just prefer to stand. Don't worry, though, you won't see me standing at a restaurant or when I'm over at someone's house for dinner. I sit like everybody else. Standing would be weird, duh.

You might be crazy if you listen to disco music to help yourself fall asleep at night.

I don't like soft, slow music when I'm trying to fall asleep. It's backwards, I know.

You might be crazy if you tried flushing the toilet paper tube down the toilet when you were well past the age of “just seeing what happens.”

Now this one I can't really justify. It just sort of happened. I don't know what went through my head, but I thought it'd be fun to see what happened. Nothing cool happened, I'll tell you that.

You might be crazy if you love Mondays.

It's true, I LOVE Mondays. It's the start of a whole new week. Let's go!

You might be crazy if you tell yourself that you aren't crazy.

Photo by Julian Paul

I've actually stopped telling myself this. There was no point in repeating something that wasn't true.

You might be crazy if your whole family tells you you're crazy.

Photo by Kal Visuals

Yes, my whole family tells me I'm a little strange. Because I am.

You might be crazy if you read this and agree with all of it.

100% agree.

25 Beatles Lyrics: Your Go-To Guide for Every Situation

The Best Lines from the Fab Four

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!

Dealing with the inevitable realities of college life.

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.
