Why Being Healthy is so Hard, and Why it Sucks so Much

We all have thought about trying to be healthy for our new years resolution. Or just to try to make a better us, to make yourself feel better about whatever is happening in our lives at that time. But let me tell you why being healthy sucks. It seems like a great idea at first, and talking about it seems like the best idea in the world. But it’s no fun. And it’s so time consuming!

The number one reason being healthy sucks is because of the food choices. Nothing healthy actually tastes good! Well, besides maybe certain fruits. Everything else either doesn’t have any flavoring, or the flavoring is too strong and you can barely eat it. Like salad. I’m not a rabbit! Why would I want to eat a salad voluntarily, I have better food choices than to eat something that doesn’t actually fill me up. And it tastes like grass, don’t ask how I know what grass tastes like…

Next reason being healthy sucks, is because exercising takes a lot of work. Running, lifting weights all of it. Running just takes all of the energy out of you, and for what? To get to one place faster than if you would walk? No thanks. And lifting weights is a great idea, and props to everyone who does it, but to me straining my muscles just doesn’t sound like a fun time.

I know I sound like the unhealthiest person in the world. I realize this, I do try to be healthy, it’s just no fun at all. I would rather eat all of the sugary things like brownies, and drink soda, and just sit around and watch movies. But not everyone can live in a fairytale…

I think the hardest thing about going away to college is figuring out how to become an adult. Leaving a household where your parents took care of literally everything (thanks, Mom!) and suddenly becoming your own boss is overwhelming. I feel like I'm doing a pretty good job of being a grown-up, but once in awhile I do something that really makes me feel like I'm #adulting. Twenty-somethings know what I'm talking about.

I went to a small high school, like 120-people-in-my-graduating-class small. It definitely had some good and some bad, and if you also went to a small high school, I’m sure you’ll relate to the things that I went through.

1. If something happens, everyone knows about it

Who hooked up with whom at the party? Yeah, heard about that an hour after it happened. You failed a test? Sorry, saw on Twitter last period. Facebook fight or, God forbid, real fight? It was on half the class’ Snapchat story half an hour ago. No matter what you do, someone will know about it.

Chandler Bing

I'm assuming that we've all heard of the hit 90's TV series, Friends, right? Who hasn't? Admittedly, I had pretty low expectations when I first started binge watching the show on Netflix, but I quickly became addicted.

Without a doubt, Chandler Bing is the most relatable character, and there isn't an episode where I don't find myself thinking, Yup, Iam definitely the Chandler of my friend group.

Working with the public can be a job, in and of itself. Some people are just plain rude for no reason. But regardless of how your day is going, always having to be in the best of moods, or at least act like it... right?

1. When a customer wants to return a product, hands you the receipt, where is printed "ALL SALES ARE FINAL" in all caps.

2. Just because you might be having a bad day, and you're in a crappy mood, doesn't make it okay for you to yell at me or be rude to me. I'm a person with feelings, just like you.

3. People refusing to be put on hold when a customer is standing right in front of you. Oh, how I wish I could just hang up on you!
