What Women Say Versus What We Actually Mean

Okay, I guess we are complicated.

What Women Say Versus What We Actually Mean

People say women are complicated. But I like to think we are simple people; just feed us, love us and tell the truth and the rest usually will fall into place. However, I will agree that there are some cases where what we say isn’t always what we actually mean. Sometimes we are too stubborn to say our true feelings, or maybe we want you to figure out what we meant as part of a game to see how well you know us. Regardless, you poor souls are just left in the dark to decipher the mysterious “women code.”

When we say..

“K” we mean that you have severely pissed us off and we want you to know it. We also do not want you to have the last word in this conversation so saying this is our way of rubbing it in that we will win this argument.

“lol.” if you are hit with the non capitalized laughing out loud with a period after, you are in trouble. You have been continuing a fight that we are completely done having, or we are so mad and caught up in the moment with anger that this is our way of going completely off and yelling at you.

“Im fine” we mean that we are NOT fine! You should be very scared if we say this to you. And do not ask “are you sure” or say “well you don’t look like it,” this will only make us more upset.

“That’s funny” means that it actually isn’t funny at all, it was probably offensive or we are about to follow it up with a “Because what actually happened was ___ “.

"I'm tired" means that we are actually tired because whatever you have in mind of doing we are not in the mood. This is our nice way of saying we do not want to hang, or hope that you get the point to leave us alone.

“Yeah let's just reschedule.“ Saying this after you cancel on us means that it's actually not okay because I already have my make up done and outfit picked out and now it's wasted and there will not be a second chance.

"I'm on my way" means we still have wet hair and will probably be 30 minutes late.

"We need to talk" means that something serious has happened and if we do not discuss it soon it our relationship is over – if it isn’t already burning to the ground. P.S. be ready to apologize.

"We’ll see" means I am probably just not in the mood to talk and you will have to ask me several more times for me to think about my answer before finally saying no.

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.
