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.

The Daily Struggles of Being a College Commuter

It's not all morning coffees and singing along to the radio.

The Daily Struggles of Being a College Commuter
morethanwheels

I've been in college for four years now. I spent half my time as a commuter and half as a resident so I've experienced both sides of the housing spectrum. One thing I've learned comparing the two is that my struggles as a commuter far outweigh anything I went through while living on campus. Commuters have to deal with the problems school brings along with a slew of other issues; I've filled up my gas tank in the worst kind of weather conditions and napped in random places in public more times than I'm proud to say of. This is a list of some of the most challenging aspects of being a commuter.

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!
