5 Annoying Things Girls Do

Irritating girly things we all find annoying, even if you're a girl.

5 Annoying Things Girls Do
Angela Lydon

Sometimes it’s healthy to take a step back and have a good laugh at your own expense. Being a young women in this generation gives me plenty of material to make fun of. Between the narcissism of taking selfies to flaunting the latest trends, girls can make themselves an easy target. In particular during the rise of the seemingly upcoming feminist movement, being able to laugh at myself for doing typical girl things, is both ironic and entertaining. Indulging in these stereotypes is sometimes inevitable but comical regardless.

1.Saying the word “like” too much

Give a listen to any high school girl’s conversation and you will hear the word “like” as if it’s going out of style. Gossiping, no matter how immature, is almost instinctive to girls. For some reason while we are conversing with our friends, the only way we can get our point across, is by saying “like” every other word.

2.We constantly touch our hair

No matter the length, twirling our hair is more than just an anxious habit. Nothing is better than just getting out of the shower and twisting your hair with your finger and brushing through it with your hands. Yet, this activity becomes more of a regular occurrence when you’re playing hair dresser in class, while driving or even in line at a store. It somehow becomes more addictive than eating chocolate while you have cramps; which is a totally separate issue..

3.Being indecisive about our clothes

Even though our closets are overflowing with options, we somehow never seem to have anything to wear. Shopping is usually a regular thing, so there’s never a shortage of outfits. Yet somehow, finding an appropriate ensemble everyday is more complicated than college math homework. It takes me, on average, about four clothes changes before arriving on a satisfactory outfit.

4.Going to the bathroom in herds

Whether you’re at a dinner or a get together, going to the bathroom alone when you’re among females at a social event, is unheard of. This is our time to pee for the second time in twenty minutes, talk trash really quickly, see how bad our make-up looks and adjust our annoying bras. To everyone else, this is highly irritating. To us, it’s normal.

5.Strutting instead of walking

All of the above reasons, I can identify with… However, I would rather walk than strut. Nothing is more irritating to girls, than seeing other girls strutting their hips. There’s no reasonable explanation, it just is. There are so many other ways to get people’s attention than blatantly swaying your hips and keeping the posture of a diva. Acting like you’re sporting designer outfits on the runway when you’re just walking down the street, is a little much. Regular walking will suffice.

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.

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.

Top 10 Reasons My School Rocks!

Why I Chose a Small School Over a Big University.

I was asked so many times why I wanted to go to a small school when a big university is so much better. Don't get me wrong, I'm sure a big university is great but I absolutely love going to a small school. I know that I miss out on big sporting events and having people actually know where it is. I can't even count how many times I've been asked where it is and I know they won't know so I just say "somewhere in the middle of Wisconsin." But, I get to know most people at my school and I know my professors very well. Not to mention, being able to walk to the other side of campus in 5 minutes at a casual walking pace. I am so happy I made the decision to go to school where I did. I love my school and these are just a few reasons why.
