Well it is that time of the year when all it seems to be doing is raining. We are out for the summer but stuck inside because the rain just will not stop. There are many thoughts that goes through everyone’s head when we get cooped up inside. Thoughts that start from dang when can I get out to maybe I will just go play in the rain.

1. Finally. It has not rained in a while, it is about time it rains. These burn bans are not fun in the summer when we want to shot fireworks off, especially on the 4th of July. Plus it is hot so a nice cool down will be nice. I mean just cool down to about 80 and we will be good. 100 in Texas is not fun.

2. So I spoke too soon. When is it going to stop? I do not think it will ever end. It has been raining for days I feel like. A few days is long enough.

3. Why is this happening?! Seriously, why? It has been raining for several days. I think the plants are more than fine now. I may like falling asleep to the sound of rain but I am just annoyed now.

4. Everything is wet. I am too short and all the puddles are drenching my pants. My shoes are soaked along with my socks. I cannot even do anything with my hair. I just want it to stop.

5. It is summer! I just want to be out on the lake or at the pool having fun. Catching all the sun rays. Enjoying my summer but instead I have to sit and stare outside.

6. Should I just sell my car and buy a boat at this point? When I do get out I have to avoid all the roads. They are all flooded and I have a feeling I will be soon calling for help. Plus I did want to go to the lake and be on a boat anyways.

7. Is this the end of the world? Did someone build an ark and not tell us? If so, where was our warning? God, I do not know what you are doing but please do not wash out humanity again.

8. My hair is not okay. My hair becomes wet, with no blow-dryer to contain it. It is in directions I did not think my hair could actually settle. This rain really needs to stop.

9. Maybe I can just go float the river at the park. Just go buy me a tube and i will float away since I cannot go enjoy floating the river that was on my summer bucket list.

10. Will I get drenched sprinting out to my car? Yes, probably. But I just want to eat so is it really worth it? An umbrella just does not work at this point. Maybe a huge towel.

11. Why did I park next to a puddle? I hope that somewhere in me I can jump 5 feet and not land in it. Nope, there go my shoes and socks. Yay.

12. But really. When is this going to end?! I just want the sun back!

I'll admit it, I have a condition called RBF or, if you will, Resting Bitch Face.

Anna Kendrick, poor Kristen Stewart, the Queen of England are all life-long sufferers of RBF. Victoria Beckham even made a career out of it! And though it's usually used to describe women, some men are also afflicted. Kanye West is the best example of this.

Everyone who is in college right now, or has ever been, knows the struggle of pulling in the strings at the last second. It seems impossible, and you have to do a LOT of things in order to assure your future for the next semester.

April Ludgate, historically, is a very annoyed person, and she doesn't hide it. Of all the times that I binged and re-binged "Parks and Rec," her attitude relates more and more to me.

Ask friends of mine to name a quality about me, and one a lot them will point out the fact that I am almost always smiling. I like to laugh and smile -- not to quote Buddy the Elf in April, but smiling is my favorite! It is probably my favorite go-to expression. However, what a lot of people do not see is that I have my down days. I have days when smiling and laughing is a real struggle, or when I have so much on my plate that going out of my way to behappy takes more effort than I have stored in me. Be it a symptom of college and growing up or a facet of life, I cannot always be content.
