Why Sunday Nights Are The Worst

Everyone gets in that funk now and then.

Why Sunday Nights Are The Worst
Pixar Wiki

Every Sunday night I find myself in the same position. The overwhelming mixture of sadness, annoyance, laziness, excitement, and motivation that seems to be on an endless loop. I feel like I'm always in a funk until my alarm goes off at 8 a.m. Monday morning, then it's back to reality. In order for myself to understand my emotions, I'm going to attempt to break it down.

It usually starts around 5 p.m. after my boyfriend leaves my apartment to begin his two hour journey back home. Distance is never fun, but the two nights we get together are definitely not taken for granted. Obviously with him leaving comes the sadness. He's my person and I enjoy being with him. Its annoying having to really plan out when we can see each other next, instead of him living right around the corner like we do when I'm home from college.

Moving on, he's not the only reason why Sunday's are the worst. An incredible amount of laziness, excitement, and motivation take over my mind. This is a wild variety of emotions and here's why:

Lazy-

because I've been lying around all weekend so why would I want to stop? Also, thinking about all of the schoolwork I've pushed off until last minute is 100% overwhelming, and I do it every time. However, I start thinking about how I only have one class on Monday's and suddenly I'm...

Excited-

because it's a new week that I can rush through so I can see my boyfriend again. Just kidding...kind of. It's a new week so I can better myself and recover from the last. I can work harder, eat healthier, and go to the gym everyday. Which leads to being...

Motivated-

I get so excited about a new week that I become an OCD freak. I fill out my planner, calendars, write out what I'm doing each day and at what time, set my alarms, pick out my outfits, do my laundry, finish all of my homework, clean the kitchen, take out the trash, take out the recycling, clean my bathroom. And then I finish all of that by 9 p.m. so here comes....

Sadness...

The feeling of wanting to buy some donuts or ice cream, take a hot shower, then crawl into bed and endlessly scroll through social media until I'm crying for no reason at all are the only tasks I want to complete.

This is all an endless cycle of hormonal craziness. It seems to be my every Sunday night routine.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
