10 Common Things I Wouldn't Wish On My Worst Enemy

Maybe the 10 worst things ever.

Some things which may seem like a minor inconvenience to certain people, can be the worst thing for another person. For example, I can tolerate country music, but other people just cannot stand it. Most people can probably think of a few of these “pet peeves,” while me on the other hand, can easily think of ten. Below is a list of some every day scenarios I would not wish upon my worst enemy in no apparent order.

1. Having notebooks and folders that aren’t color coordinated

It is incredibly well known that the color of a folder and notebook for the same course have to be the same color. Yet, some people blatantly disregard this rule, and it is hard to even see. Just do us all a favor and keep your school supplies color coordinated by class, thank you.

2. Hang nail

Any sort of injury to your fingers may be the worst possible injury due to the amount we use our hands. The hang nail, in my opinion, is the worst thing that can happen to your hands. It hurts, and even worse, just snags on every little thing.

3. Walking around all day with something sticky on your shoe sole

Not only every time you step you make some obnoxious noise, but you can even feel your shoes stick to the ground a bit. Nothing can ever be done to get the sticky spot of the sole of your shoe, and the only possible remedy is to retire that pair.

4. Chapped lips

Another dual edged sword. Not only are chapped lips unsightly, but they make for the most uncomfortable feeling ever. What seems like a remedy, liking your lips, is actually just a viscous cycle which makes them worse.

5. Having to watch Conan O’Brien

By far and away the worst late night TV, if not live TV show. Conan O’Brien is absolutely brutal. The guy is just flat out weird and not funny at all. Some cruise ships enjoy torturing their passengers by only offering Conan as the late night TV show.

6. 7:30 a.m. finals

Finals suck, waking up early sucks, so a 7:30 a.m. final is up there as one of the worst things ever. How are you supposed to be able to function, let alone think deeply at this ungodly time in the morning?

7. Listening to Iggy Azalea’s Fancy on repeat

Another tragedy of the music industry. Iggy Azalea’s songs leave much to be desired. Listening to any of her songs on repeat surely would drive a person mad. The CIA should look into this as a method of interrogation.

8. Having bagels but no cream cheese

Many other food pairings could have been listed here, but there isn’t anything quite as bland as a plain bagel. A bagel is essentially a vector to transport cream cheese into ones mouth. Without cream cheese, the bagel is essentially useless. It is also a huge tease to have a bagel, but no cream cheese. Even worse would be if you started making a bagel just to find out you didn’t have cream cheese.

9. Having to walk to class in the rain

Walking in the rain is bad enough. But, walking in the rain to class is exponentially worse. Walking in the rain could possibly be tolerated if the endpoint was something pleasurable (class certainly isn’t pleasurable). To top it all off, after walking through a monsoon to some dreadful lecture, you will get to sit in said lecture nice and wet.

10. A class that takes attendance

The reason a class takes attendance is because otherwise no one would show up. This could be due to many reasons, but mainly because the class is painfully boring. Because attendance is taken, the professor forces you to go to this dreadful class every single time. Plus, losing attendance points takes away the fun in spontaneously skipping class.

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

I don't think I say it enough...

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
