Nine Thoughts Girls Have In The Shower

Get your head out of the gutters, guys. This is what we actually think about in all that steam.

Nine Thoughts Girls Have In The Shower

There is nothing better than a hot shower after a long day, except maybe a steak burrito from Chipotle. Everyone has a different routine in the shower and the amount of time spent in the shower varies from person to person. A girl will probably spend longer in the shower than a guy would, but who am I to judge? The shower has been called a good place for "deep thoughts," and although majority of my thoughts are far from deep, I do catch myself zoning out under the steaming water.

Here are nine things girls commonly think about in the safety of their own shower.

1. Wow, I stink.

Actually though, I didn't think B.O. was even a thing for me.. I mean, I'm a girl. I wear deodorant that smells like vanilla and put on way too much Victoria's Secret body spray. It's probably from that super hard workout I did today, and by workout, I'm talking about the entire season of "OITNB" that I just finished. Really tiring, and obviously, I worked up a sweat.

2. If only I was this tan in real life.

I don't know what it is about the shower lighting, but dang, I look like a bronzed beauty. I'm talking "Jersey Shore" tan. Maybe I should go to the tanning salon every day instead of every other day. Is that bad?

3. Food baby on point right now.

Chipotle for lunch really hit the spot, and I do not regret it at all. But I am, however, going to complain how fat I am later. Seriously, there could easily be a small child inside me. Maybe I shouldn't order pizza for dinner ...? Nah, pizza sounds really good.

4. That picture Andrew posted on Insta was so hot.

God bless him, am I right? He was crafted by angels, and I cannot stop staring at him. If only you could zoom on Instagram ... I would enjoy looking at a close up of his abdominal region. I wonder if he's into me? We could totally go on gym dates. #relationshipgoals. LOL though, because I just don't work out.

5. Why does my leg hair grow so fast?

I'm starting to hate whoever made shaving your legs a thing. Seriously, I swear I just shaved my legs two days ago, and I already look like Chewbacca. Shoot, I'm out of shaving cream too. Uh, improvise, I think conditioner works? Pretty sure I read that online somewhere, but I could totally just be making it up. I could skip the shaving and just wear jeans out tonight. Or not, since it's probably still 100 degrees out. What to do, what to do ...

6. Why are my hands so pruney?

This is so gross. My hands look way too much like my 90-year-old grandma's, and there is nothing attractive about that. I haven't even been in here that long, like maybe 20 minutes? Maybe I should hurry it up. I wonder what causes pruning. I'm going to Google that when I get out of the shower. Ah Google, what a great invention. What is this? Since when do feet get pruney? Ew, I need a pedicure too.

7. I need so much shampoo to wash this mane of mine.

I'm poor, and I can't be buying this salon shampoo all the time. That stuff is far too expensive, and I need to purchase more important things, like a venti coffee. This should count as a workout too, because I'm pretty sure my hair weighs like five pounds right now. My arm has gone numb. I can't feel my arm! Being a girl sucks. I should just cut my hair off; bobs are totally in style right now. I wonder what I would look like with short hair? Hmmm ... I know in seventh grade it was far from cute. I'll never live down that yearbook picture. Okay, OKAY so cutting my hair short would be a regrettable decision.

8. I wonder if I look as hot as they do in the movies.

Every movie, or every good movie, has a steamy shower scene. How do they make shampooing look so, I don't know, sexy? And how do they always come out with perfect, clean skin yet here I am with raccoon eyes on fleek. Psh, unrealistic.

9. What was that?

I swear I just heard a door creak ... Why do I always shower with the door open? Now I'm just asking for it ... I'm already naked. Do I make a run for it? But I just put a conditioning mask on ... I have to let it sit for at least five minutes ... I'm screwed. Oh, it was just my dog. Whew.

So, that only took 45 minutes ... and I'm probably going to be late since it takes 23 minutes to blow dry my hair. You know, I'm starting to give the bob second thoughts. Or just shower a whole lot less, that works too. It's summer, so it's socially acceptable, right?

Growing up I have always wanted to own a horse. My grandparents own a well known equestrian facility in Georgia, so I have been riding since I was born. A bond between a person and their horse is a bond so strong that it cannot be broken. Everywhere I went I wanted to be around horses, even forcing my family to go on trail rides during vacations. Horses have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember has taught me great responsibility, as well as 14 things that all equestrians can relate to.

College is super hard. Between working, studying, and having a social life, it feels like a struggle to just keep afloat.

I understand. When you feel like your drowning and there's no way to stay afloat I understand that it feels like everyone else is doing just fine. I understand all the frustration, long nights in the library, and that feeling that you want to just throw in the towel. I understand that sometimes it's too hard to get out of bed because your brain is already filled with too much information to remember. I understand because I am also feeling pretty burnt out.

No Matter How Challenging School Gets, You Have To Put Your Health First — A Degree Won't Mean Anything If You're Dead

Some of the best advice I've ever received was from my social studies teacher in sophomore year of high school. He stated, "If you don't know it at midnight, you're not going to know it for the 8 a.m. exam, so get some sleep."

It's such a simple piece of advice, but it holds so much accuracy and it's something that the majority of college students need to hear and listen to. "All-nighters" are a commonality on college campuses in order to cram in studying for an exam that is typically the next day.

Obsessive Thoughts Keep My Brain Stuck On A Loop And Me Stuck On My Couch

Sometimes my brain just starts turning on an idea and it doesn't want to stop.

I don't know if it is related to my anxiety, perfectionism or depression. I don't know why it happens. It's frustrating, it's painful and it stops me from functioning.
