10 Things Girls Say VS What they Actually Mean

As a fellow female, I can vouch for all of us when I point out that not everything we say should be taken exactly as it was spoken. Confusing, I know. In our mind--most likely somewhere in between scheduling our work plan, answering texts, and making phone calls, what we think can be lost in the translation of what actually comes out of our mouths. Maybe its a blessing, maybe its a curse.

1. "It's whatever"

What it really means: no, actually its not whatever. Its nowhere near whatever. She's probably got a much more definitive answer strategically planned out in her head, but due to the circumstances she will try not to be too high maintenance and play it safe with just that statement.

2. "I'm not really that hungry"

What it really means: Ask me if I want food in another 10 minutes, and I will most likely say that I am very hungry.

3. "I'm dying"

What it really means: something she saw, did, or witnessed is actually really funny--to the point where she's laughed so hard she may actually die.

4. "RT"

What it really means: I agree

5. "Yeah, he seems really nice"

What it really means: she's not really sure if she's interested in him, however she am not opposed to being around him.

6. "Do you think he's cute?"

What it really means: she's not sure if she has a weird taste in men, or if the guy she's looking at is actually attractive. *or* she's intoxicated and can't seem to make that judgement without the support of her fellow intoxicated friends.

7. "fine"

What it really means: nothings fine. Apologize until she begins to tell you what is actually bothering her. AKA get ready for an argument.

8. "Do I look fat in this?"

What it really means: She hasn't hit the gym in weeks, and has had pizza more than three times this week, but still wants to look cute.

9. "I'll be ready in 2 minutes"

What it really means: Do you mind waiting another 30 minutes, I haven't even done my hair yet.

10. "I have nothing to wear"

What it really means: she hasn't done laundry in weeks, she's searched through her closet several times, and has still come up empty-handed. Meaning, she is going to need to borrow something from someone ASAP.

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!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.

December... it's full of finals, due dates, Mariah Carey, and the holidays. It's the worst time of the year, but the best because after finals, you get to not think about classes for a month and catch up on all the sleep you lost throughout the semester. But what's worse than finals week is the last week of classes, when all the due dates you've put off can no longer be put off anymore.
