Some things in life are a little funky...

Some things in life are just kind of...weird. Maybe it's just me, or maybe you feel the same way. Or maybe you're one of those wild Facebook users that will read through this entire article, taking it way too seriously, and commenting on why each point I make is totally wrong. With that being said, here are 7 things that don't really make sense to me.

1) The people on Facebook that I mentioned above.

I get, you have opinions. We all do! I have such a hard time understanding this very specific Facebook user because of the amount of time their "job" must take. I've seen grown men and women post comments (typically on political posts) that are longer than some of the essays I've written for class. I get it, the world (or your 37 Facebook friends) needs to know how you feel! But when these posts turn offensive, which they so often do, maybe it's just time to log off?

2) People who get angry over LGBTQ marriages.

How does someone else's marriage affect you at all? I don't get it! No one is asking a straight person to get married to someone of the same sex. I'm sure if you're anti-gay marriage you aren't being invited to any of the weddings, so how does it affect you? Let people love whoever they want to love, I promise you have bigger fish to fry!

3) School Shootings

Not a lot to say here. If you think murdering innocent people makes sense then I'd encourage you to stop reading and get help.

4) People at the gym who come in large groups and each take turns doing reps on one machine so no one else can have a turn.

Just a personal gripe with gym culture.

5) Men who cat call women.

What is the end game here? You're going to whistle at a woman on the street and she's going to rip her clothes off? Can't comprehend it.

6) People who make fun of annoying teens when they were an annoying teen like a year ago.

I promise if I comb through your tweets I will find something just as cringe inducing as the ninth grader letting the world know that he thinks Lil Pump is the greatest musician of all time.

7) Racism/Sexism/Homophobia/ any other pointless hatred.

Just leave people alone!! Stop being an asshole and let people live their lives in peace. If you are any of the terms listed above I strongly suggest you get educated and be quiet.

I've known you your entire life. More than likely I held you in the first three days of it and at least one of us cried. Cousins are truly one of the best things in the world and while sometimes I complain about how many people crowd Grandma's living room on Christmas Eve, I wouldn't trade you all anything.

You are my best friends, the only people who can understand what it's like on Thanksgiving, and you are the spunkiest people I have ever met. But you as so so young, most of you are just now starting your adventures in the public education system. I mean, I'm so very young too. I'm not married, I don't have children, heck, I just started my adult life, but I do want to give you what little advice I have. My dears, these are the things I want you to know.

You are a senior in high school, you have made it to the final year that you have been looking forward to since the first day of freshman year. Whether this has been the worst or best four years of your life, appreciate it. You will never have these times back, you will never be in high school again. It is hard for someone still in high school to wrap their brain around, but there will be a day when you wish you could be in the shoes you're in right now. Here are 15 things I have learned being in college that I wish I knew as a high school senior:

Everyone, and I mean everyone has heard of the show "One Tree Hill". Many people think that this show is the best thing they've ever watched and others won't bother watching it because they know they'll get hooked. And yes, I know many people have written about this show before, but I couldn't resist. I could re-watch every season multiple times to the point where I can almost quote an entire scene. Trust me, once you start "One Tree Hill", you will be hooked. There's way too many reasons to list as to why you'll love this show, and these are just a few.

5 Ways To Bring Positivity Into Your Life When All You Want To Do Is Drown In Self-Pity

It seems like life has been serving up more bad than good and in all honesty, the only thing you want to do is crawl under your covers and hide from the rest of the world.

The first two weeks of classes have come to an end and they have been anything BUT easy. It seems like life has been serving up more bad than good and in all honesty, the only thing you want to do is crawl under your covers and hide from the rest of the world.

Although this seems like the best solution, it is also the easy way out. Take it from the girl who took basically a whole week off from her life because she just could not handle everything that was being thrown at her. This caused her to feel extremely lonely and even more stressed out for being behind in classes that JUST began.
