5 Stages of Writers Block
UCWbling

Have you ever just stared at your computer and not know what the heck to write and think to yourself “Oh great! Now I got writers block!” Writers block is that big P word, a pain, a BIG pain in the butt. These are the five stages of writer's block that you will reach.

1. Frustration

This is the first stage of writers block because this is when you finally realize that you can not think of anything to write and you just want to bang your head against the wall and scream.

2. Annoyance

This is the second stage of writers block because you are annoyed at the fact that your brain cannot function to create words and sentences in enough time for this assignment to be due.

3. Anger

This is the third stage of writers block because you are just getting pissed off at the fact that there is just nothing but a blank document on your computer with only your name and nothing else

4. Stress

This is the fourth stage of writer block because you are finally realizing that the deadline is coming up for the assignment to be handed in.

5. Anxiety

This is the last stage of writers block because you are probably very near the deadline and your heart is racing and you still only have your name on the document when the assignment is due the next morning.

birthday party

My birthday has never been my favorite holiday. I've found that I'm more excited to celebrate my friends' and family members' birthdays more than my own. I don't like being the center of attention, so I usually celebrate over dinner with a small group of family and friends. This way, I can enjoy myself naturally without feeling like I have to entertain everyone and make sure they are satisfied. In the past when I've had large parties, I was so nervous that people weren't perfectly content that I didn't enjoy myself at my own celebration.

College Informations

Most of us have already started the spring semester, and for those of you who haven't started yet, you suck.

It seems like coming back from winter break wouldn't really be a break all things considered, since we all come back to school and pick up right where we left off. We know exactly what to expect, yet we're unprepared every single time.

I'm serious

There are tons of unisex names that are popular: Taylor, Alex, Bailey, etc. There are also numerous names that are used for both sexes, but they’re not seen as “unisex” yet. People are slowly becoming accustomed to the dual use of these names, but for the most part, in their minds they associate certain names with certain sexes. And that leaves those of us with these names in many awkward situations.
