10 Things I Wish I Could Tell My Cat

If only cats could speak English.

“Women and cats will do as they please, and men and dogs should relax and get used to the idea.”
― Robert A. Heinlein

1. 6 a.m. isn't a proper bedtime

My cat has a daily schedule and it concludes at promptly six in the morning. As soon as the sun begins to rise, she will try and curl up with me in bed after a full night of running around my room. She then gets angry because I have to get up and leave at seven in the morning as if I'm the one ruining her sleep schedule.

2. 15 pieces of food left in your bowl does NOT mean it is empty.

For whatever reason, my cat will act like her food bowl is empty when there are about 15 to 20 pieces still in the bowl. She will meow at me like I'm starving her until I fill it to the brim with more food.

3. Stop getting cat food in your water bowl, please.

How does that even happen? Your water bowl is a good distance away from the food bowl?

4. Water can be nice sometimes.

The shower won't hurt you. Neither will the sink. But you don't seem to understand that.

5. Stop bolting for the front door every time it opens.

There's nothing good waiting for you out there. I wish I could stay inside all day sometimes.

6. My hair is not food OR a chew toy.

This speaks for itself, and yet I still find you chewing on the strands of my hair when I lay down to take a nap.

7. Your tail is attached to you, don't bite it.

You learn your lesson each time you chase your tail but I wish I could remind you.

8. Stop trying to eat human food, it will only make your litter box stink more.

And it already stinks even though I scoop it every day.

9. The keyboard is not a good place for naps.

I have to do things on there!

10. Even though you sometimes make no sense to me, I wouldn't have my life any other way.

You're mine, and I love you.

5 Ways To Bring Positivity Into Your Life When All You Want To Do Is Drown In Self-Pity

The first two weeks of classes have come to an end and they have been anything BUT easy. It seems like life has been serving up more bad than good and in all honesty, the only thing you want to do is crawl under your covers and hide from the rest of the world.

Although this seems like the best solution, it is also the easy way out. Take it from the girl who took basically a whole week off from her life because she just could not handle everything that was being thrown at her. This caused her to feel extremely lonely and even more stressed out for being behind in classes that JUST began.

11 Things We Learned From Brooke Davis

"What's more important? What we become or how we become it?"

St. Thomas Aquinas College

"She was fiercely independent, Brooke Davis. Brilliant, and beautiful, and brave. In two years she had grown more than anyone I had ever known. Brooke Davis is going to change the world someday, and I'm not sure she even knows it." - Lucas Scott, An Unkindness of Ravens

Brooke Davis of the hit show One Tree Hill was the it girl - she had it all, or so we thought. She started out as a stuck-up, shallow, spoiled, head cheerleader who didn't have her life together. She slept around a lot and loved to party - sounds like your typical high school teenager right? Wrong. B. Davis had so much more to offer. Caring, loyal, and outspoken, she has taught us some valuable lessons throughout the 9 seasons that OTH was on the air:

We call those people, "Honorary Roommates" and here are 11 signs you have one in your life.
