Group messages get a little too crazy sometimes.

10 Annoying Things About GroupMe Conversations

As an Odyssey creator, I rarely have too much to complain about when it comes down to how we communicate and the programs we use. But, for one moment, I'd like to vent about the funniest and most inconvenient app that exists: GroupMe. Most of this will be sarcastic, because I do love using it, but I have a few complaints.

1. No one has a filter

I love you guys, really, but wow. Sometimes you learn more than you expect and the honesty can be a bit surprising. But no filter means no secrets.

2. The notifications

If I leave my phone alone for ten minutes, there is a possibility I will have at least twenty notifications from a conversation. Some times I want to turn notifications off.

3. Lack of privacy

Simply: someone is watching your every comment, and it is a problem sometimes. I just wanted to get opinions in peace.

4. GIF sprees

Sometimes my day cannot be described in a GIF, but I try. There's just so many of them. And a lot of people use similar ones, which can be insane.

5. On going conversations

Y'all are still talking at one am? Really? This is ridiculous. How long can one conversation go on?

6. Scrolling

Geez, my thumb gets a workout trying to catch up on what everyone is talking about. This app is at least makes one part of my hand strong.

7. Lost comments

I'm aware someone said something funny, but now I can't find it. Why? Just, why?

8. Freaking notifications

Yes, this deserves distant points. There's just too many.

9. The amount of emojis used

How many "crying" faces does it take to make a joke funny? I'm unsure at this point.

10. How quickly people reply

I asked one question, and now I can't even answer the first reply. Wow.


Yes, everyone, I love the app. I just thought a mostly satirical list would brighten up someone's day. Maybe I do have a messed up sense of humor, who knows.

The Battle Between College And My Mental Health

College isn't easy, and I'm afraid I'm not going to make it at the rate my mental health is going.

Everyone tells you that college is hard, but they fail to explain why. Sure, classes are hard. Math sucks, and political science can be so boring. But that's not even what's killing me about college. What's killing me about college is my deterioating mental health.

As a college student, I feel as if people don't understand just how exhausted I, and fellow college students are. We have so many things going on, all the time, and sometimes it's hard to explain to people how we feel. Personally...I'm tired. I'm sad. And I'm struggling every single day with my emotions. But the thing is, it hasn't always been this way. I haven't always hated school, so why am I feeling like this now?
