Everyone has had those moments when you are driving in the car all by yourself and numerous thoughts enter your brain one by one. Of course, this becomes extremely distracting and stressful since they are about a bunch of different things. Whether it's thoughts on how your day went, what you are going to do when you get home, or your plans for the evening, you can never escape the endless thoughts that run through your mind. Here are 10 thoughts you have while in the car alone:

10. Ugh. I have so much work to do.

After a long day or work/school, you being to realize all the work you have to do as soon as you get home. Of course as soon as you think about all of the work you have to do, you begin to strategically plan how and when you are going to do it all. This is when you begin to hate your life because you don't want to even start it.

9. I hate her/him.

We always have that one person who made our day annoying. Whether it be the obnoxious person in class/work, a boss/teacher, or even a random stranger, there never seems to be a day when we do not come across a person that ruins our day.

8. Why are there no good songs on right now?!

We all listen to music while in the car, but we always have those moments when we can never find a radio station playing good music! It's always one bad song after the other, or all the radio stations we are looking up are playing the same song! This is when the car ride home becomes a rough time in our lives.

7. Why are you going so slow?!

Don't you just hate when the people driving in front of you are driving so slow?! I mean, come on! I know I do! And of course this happens every single time we get into the car! It seems like no matter where we go, what time of the day we decide to drive at, or who's driving, we always get stuck behind slow drivers! And the best part is, there is no explanation as to why they are driving slow!

6. Is that a cop?!

Yup. Don't try to deny this one! Everyone always gets a little too excited while behind the wheel and tend to "forget" what the speed limit is, which tends to not correlate to how fast we are currently driving. This causes us to instantly assume that a cop will be on our next left or right because we know we are speeding! (Please drive carefully and follow the speed limit people! It's the law!)

5. I missed my exit!

This has happened to the best of us multiple times. Although we are driving alone, we tend to get distracted very easily, which causes us to miss our exits or take a wrong turn. Oops!

4. What am I going to wear tonight?

Driving alone is the perfect time to decide what to wear when going out the night of. It's a time where you can get your thoughts together and picture different looks in your mind, so that when you get home you already know what you're going to wear.

3. *Gets text* Ugh! Can't check this while I'm driving.

The worst is when you are driving and you hear the ping on your phone, notifying you that you are getting texts. Of course you cannot answer them right away because you are driving, but the thought that your unread texts keeps building and building up stresses you out! (Do not text and drive!)

2. I can't wait to take a nap.

After a long day, you cannot wait to go home to just lay down and go to sleep. Of course this is more for the lucky people that actually have the time to take a nap because the rest of us are forced to stay up and do all the assignments we have to work on!

1. What am I going to eat when I get home?

Food is definitely the number one priority as soon as you get home. If your like me, as soon as you get home you eat like you never have before in your entire life, and feel like you're going to explode afterwards. The car ride home is the perfect time to figure out what and how much food you're going to eat as soon as you get home!


Remember to not let these thoughts distract you while driving! It is very important to stay safe by keeping your eyes on the road at all times and have a clear mind!

I've lived a whole 21 years with an RBF (Resting Bitch Face), so naturally, I go through most of these struggles on a daily basis.

And before you ask, yes I'm fine. No, I'm not mad. This is just my face, so take it or leave it! To those of you who have been #blessed with an RBF, you'll probably relate to these more than you'd like to:

What's up Asshat,

I've composed a list of things that I wish upon you, and they're harsh and cruel. These things are things that I wouldn't wish upon my worst of enemies, not even that Starbuck's barista who always screws up my order, not even him. You fall into a whole other category of hate. You surpass Starbucks barista. Congratulations, I'm actually a pretty nice person, making you worthy of every single bit of torture I wish upon you. What are these things I wish upon you you might ask?

Supportive and spontaneous human beings are the best.

Theater Kids

Throughout school, the theater department has always been my go-to place with go-to people when I need advice, a dance party, or just someone to listen to me vent.

You never know what's going to happen when you're dealing with theatre or what kind of characters you'll encounter. We have too much fun doing anything! One time in my senior year acting class, we spent an entire class period watching Bob's Burgers, and it was the greatest class period ever.
