18 Thoughts We've All Had Dealing With Late People
Hannah Sarnie

Are you a stickler for time? Do you just have chronically late friends and family members? Or both? I've heard from too many people about their friends canceling at the last minute and I get it, we all have things to do. Also, sometimes things come up! We've all been there and so we can empathize and be flexible. But here's what goes through our heads when you play this little game with us on a regular basis.

1. A couple of minutes pass by.

I mean, I'm pretty sure we said 6:30 but it's cool. They're probably on their way.

2. Fifteen minutes pass by

But like... where you at though.

3. A text

Oh, they must be here.

4. You read the text

Oh, but they're not coming. Or are going to be forty-five minutes late.

5. I literally just got ready and I am so put together.

Your outfit is cute. Everything is put together. You're ready to go.

6. My hair smells so good

Literally like strawberries or coconut. Or both.

7. And you couldn't you have told me earlier, why?

I could have made other plans! I don't have all the time in the world.

8. You couldn't have just let me know?

It literally takes five seconds to send a text.

9. Are they not into me?

"Maybe they don't like me. Or they don't care enough to make time for me. Or they're spies."

10. Wait, what are they actually doing though...

"But actually... what if all my friends are having a giant party tonight without me."

11. When you want to let them know how you feel

12. But instead you don't, and send a really understanding, friendly.

"WTF is wrong with you? Why you doooo?"

*deletes text*

"Okay, no worries! I totally understand!"

13. Even though it's the fourth time it has happened.

Dealing with chronically late people like...

14. Am I overreacting?

Things happen, we have to understand that. Sometimes unforeseen things come up and we have to be flexible. It's not the end of the world. But that doesn't mean we can't be annoyed when it happens constantly.

15. Nope.

*Preach*

16. When they send the 'Sorry' text.

Ookay. I guess it's okay.

17. Or when they don't.

Hmmmm... are you forgetting something?

18. When they ask you to come pick them up.

No thanks. Not today. Next time figure out your plans before hand and let me know.

We Heart It

Over the past decade, television has undergone a very crucial transition: the incorporation of female lead characters. Since it's a known fact that girls actually do run the world (Beyonce said so herself), it's time for the leading ladies of the small screen to get some credit. Without these characters, women would still be sitting in the background of our favorite shows. These women are not only trailblazers for female empowerment, but role models for women worldwide. With that, here are 15 of the smartest, sassiest ladies gracing our screens that remind us that women do, indeed, rule:

If you are like me, you have an interesting personality. Basically, you love to be sassy and snarky, gossip, and act like a total bitch (not really), but deep down, you are actually a very genuinely nice person. The idea of actually hurting someone truly makes you feel bad, and you probably have never actually hurt someone’s feelings because your kindness always shines through, even if you do not want it to. Not sure exactly what I would call this type of personality, but if you identify with it, here are some feelings you can undoubtedly relate to.
