A College Student And The Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Day

It's gonna get better. Or not. No matter what, I still want to go to sleep and wait for midnight to arrive.

A College Student And The Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Day

Dear the Me I will be tomorrow,

Today sucked. Today blew. Today could not get any worse - great, now I just jinxed myself!

Hopefully, you are laughing at me. I am praying you are making fun of me, feeling better, over the small annoyances that plagued me today. I hope all your dreams come true. I would like to think you just won a million dollars, stopped watching Netflix, or were in Disney World...ugh, I miss Disney World. That fairy godmother would give me less stress instead of a pretty dress if you know what I'm saying.

I'm exhausted both mentally and emotionally. It's like my schoolwork and my drama met and decided to get it on right in front of me. And it's not even that cute kind of hookup. It's that drunk hookup that they did just to blind me and make me vulnerable to the cluster-baby the two made for me. I know, Me, I have had bad days before. But this is the worst! You gotta believe me!

First, I forgot to do my homework last night, and don't be disappointed! We both know that the next Sunday me will be watching football all night instead of doing work! Anyway, I set my alarms two hours earlier, so I could get up and get my work done. Seven in the morning is not the earliest I had to get up, and I was in bed by midnight- more than enough time!

My alarm went off. I think I groaned. I turned it off. I slept for two more hours.

I see you shaking your head, Me! It was a long weekend filled with drama! I needed the extra hours! And my bed was comfy...and I was...okay, I was lazy! Sorry!

Moving on, I got up for my first class which because that homework was surprisingly done, and I...I...skipped the class I forgot to do homework for! Three weeks into school and the sophomore slump has begun. At that point of the day, I had grown comfortable with the fact that I was most likely going to fail out of school.

And you know that drama that happened over the weekend? Hopefully, it's gone for tomorrow, but today it still lingers in our friend group. It's annoying, but I am trying to just "chill" like everyone has been telling everyone else to do. So yes, I started watching Stranger Things! I was weak and trying to "chill!" I know i just finished Quantico too. I was spineless and weak today. You are the strong one!

Then, you know that boy we like? You most likely will still like him tomorrow if you have a brain. Well, he saw me with my pink headband on! We both know the pink headband makes us look like we are literally seven years old! So yes, I literally ran the other way. No shame! Actually, I had a lot of shame, but I am just trying to get over myself and the fact that I hid.

At least my friend made buffalo chicken dip out of the horrible dinning food. I will never know how she makes something so beautiful, but maybe you and the other Me's will find out. So I ate that...and six tacos...and I didn't go to the gym...and now my stomach is cramping with all sorts of bad things!

And finally, I made myself look like a fool in front of my whole dinning hall because I was messing with my friend as he sniped me on camera...so I ran up to him at the window in a really "attractive" way, somehow thinking that no one would see me. Everyone did. Everyone.

And now, I am at work, trying to get my like together, literally having the biggest fantasy about getting into my bed and sleeping! Let me just sleep the day away.

You have such a beautiful blank slate tomorrow, so I just wanted to let you know about today. You have such a positive outlook compared to the Me I am now- the one who has been worn down to nothing. You can do it. You can fix everything. You could be laughing at the annoying little weasel I am today.

Or you can be in Disney World.

I hope you are in Disney World.

Love, with all of my emotionally drained heart,

The Me of this Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Day

P.S. I'll be crying myself to sleep in the corner, so if you wake up with a sore neck, sorry about that.

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.
