20 Things That Make Me Sad

By nature, I am a very emotional person. Sometimes I am crippled by unbearable sadness over a variety of things. Some of the things that make me sad are fairly trivial, while others are huge issues in our society. Whatever the case, I'm grateful that I am able to feel these human emotions—remorse, despair, sadness—no matter how upsetting these emotions can be. Without further ado, here are some of the things that make me sad:

1. I hate seeing dead animals on the road. They can't even get any peace when they keep getting run over again and again.


2. I only have one life to make something of myself.

3. I can never change the past.


4. Not everyone gets to say goodbye to the people they love.

5. There are only a few restaurants I actually like that deliver.


6. While I worry about trivial problems, other countries are filled with people who are willing to risk their lives to escape into the United States.

7. Three words: Animal. Abuse. Commercials.


8. What if I never see some of the people I graduated with ever again?

9. The "Vampire Diaries" gets me. Every. Single. Time.


10. My bank account makes me want to cry 9 times out of 10.

11. I'll probably never be able to afford my dream house.

12. I should have kept a journal of my entire life.

13. Some people can't figure out the difference between "you're" and "your."


14. People with low self-esteem don't know when they deserve better.

15. Chinese restaurants aren't open on Mondays.

16. Chick-fil-A isn't open on Sundays.


17. I can't afford, nor do I have the time, to take care of a puppy.

18. Cats shed. A lot.


19. I'll never know if I could've been the world's greatest gymnast or something.


20. I have less than a year until I'll be done with school. AKA I have less than a year to get my stuff together.

Summer: a time (usually) free from school work and a time to relax with your friends and family. Maybe you go on a vacation or maybe you work all summer, but the time off really does help. When you're in college you become super close with so many people it's hard to think that you won't see many of them for three months. But, then you get that text saying, "Hey, clear your schedule next weekend, I'm coming up" and you begin to flip out. Here are the emotions you go through as your best friend makes her trip to your house.

Kourtney Kardashian

Winter break is over, we're all back at our respective colleges, and the first week of classes is underway. This is a little bit how that week tends to go.

The professor starts to go over something more than the syllabus

You get homework assigned on the first day of class

There are multiple group projects on the syllabus

You learn attendance is mandatory and will be taken every class

Professor starts chatting about their personal life and what inspired them to teach this class

Participation is mandatory and you have to play "icebreaker games"

Everybody is going out because its 'syllabus week' but you're laying in bed watching Grey's Anatomy

Looking outside anytime past 8 PM every night of this week

Nobody actually has any idea what's happening this entire week

Syllabus week is over and you realize you actually have to try now...or not

Now it's time to get back into the REAL swing of things. Second semester is really here and we all have to deal with it.

Whether you specialized in ringing people up or preparing the food, if you worked at Panera Bread it holds a special place in your heart. Here are some signs that you worked at Panera in high school.

1. You own so many pairs of khaki pants you don’t even know what to do with them

Definitely the worst part about working at Panera was the uniform and having someone cute come in. Please don’t look at me in my hat.

7 Ways to Make Your Language More Transgender and Nonbinary Inclusive

With more people becoming aware of transgender and non-binary people, there have been a lot of questions circulating online and elsewhere about how to be more inclusive. Language is very important in making a space safer for trans and non-binary individuals. With language, there is an established and built-in measure of whether a place could be safe or unsafe. If the wrong language is used, the place is unsafe and shows a lack of education on trans and non-binary issues. With the right language and education, there can be more safe spaces for trans and non-binary people to exist without feeling the need to hide their identities or feel threatened for merely existing.
