Greetings, friends, it's Anna The Friendly Ghost here with another humorous article. For those of you who don't know me, I'm pale. Simply put, I have very fair skin. Seeing as it's Summer, and beach season is among us, it made me want to write a funny article about pale girl struggles. I want you to know that I realize it's not actually a "struggle" considering the state of the world today, and that I'm very blessed to look the way I look and I wouldn't change that for the world. With that being said, here are 10 Struggles That Are Too Real For Pale Girls:

1) You've had several, absolutely brutal, sunburns in your life

2) Aloe is your best friend

3) SUNSCREEN, ALWAYS SUNSCREEN!

4) People are constantly putting their arm next to yours and pointing out how pale you are compared to them

5) Random strangers come up to you, whenever you're exposed to the sun, to make sure you have sunscreen on or comment on the fact that you're pale...you don't say?????

6) They don't sell foundations light enough for you. Classic Ivory? More like Porcelain.

7) You own very little white clothing because you blend in

8) Being forced to wear a shirt in the water, as a child, to protect you from the sun

9) Not even SPF 100 is strong enough against those hot Summer days

10) Those days where you're not wearing makeup and people ask you if you don't feel well because your face is too pale

Even though I joke about the struggles of being pale, I wouldn't trade my freckles, beautiful skin, or the ability to pull off any lipstick shade any day.

High School And College Sucked All Of The Fun Out Of Reading

Books were always about understanding for me, about learning the way someone else sees, about connection.

High School And College Sucked All Of The Fun Out Of Reading

I keep making this joke whenever the idea of books is brought up: "God, I wish I knew how to read." It runs parallel to another stupid phrase, as I watch my friends struggle through their calculus classes late at night in our floor lounge: "I hope this is the year that I learn to count." They're both truly idiotic expressions, but, when I consider the former, I sometimes wonder if there's some truth to it.

CIS Markets

Coming from someone majoring in business at a school that thrives off of business majors, I know how rough it can be sometimes. Being a business major can be awesome, and awful, simultaneously. We work our tails off to be the best, but sometimes the stress can just tear you apart. Here are some struggles faced by business majors that will sound all too familiar.

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.
