11 Things Every Clutz Knows to be True

Graceful is a word that has never been used to describe me. While I am totally okay with this, I know that it stems from my lack of coordination. If you happen to be a clumsy person like me, then you know the daily struggle of getting through the day without either tripping, spilling on yourself, or just completely wiping out. So if you are lacking in the grace department as well, here are 11 things you know to be true if you are a clutz.

1. People always tell you to "be careful" when you are just walking down the sidewalk

2. You pretty much always have bruises on your knees

3. Texting while walking is like an Olympic sport for you

4. If you make it through the whole day without spilling something it's a success

5. White shirts + coffee just don't go together

6. The winter is a dangerous time for you

7. You are used to falling and saying, "I'm fine!" even when no one is around

8. You trip downstairs, you trip upstairs... it makes no difference, either way, you end up on the ground

9. You no longer get embarrassed falling down in public

10. When you walked at graduation and DIDN'T fall, even your family was surprised

11. No dinner is complete without you spilling your drink at least once.

If you can relate to most of these, then you, my friend, are a clutz. If you are like me, embrace it. Go buy yourself some Tide-to-go, extra band aids and get ready for a life with some trips and spills, but one that is sure to be pretty amazing. Because if you need to be able to laugh at yourself every once in a while.

And before you ask, yes I'm fine. No, I'm not mad. This is just my face, so take it or leave it! To those of you who have been #blessed with an RBF, you'll probably relate to these more than you'd like to:

What's up Asshat,

I've composed a list of things that I wish upon you, and they're harsh and cruel. These things are things that I wouldn't wish upon my worst of enemies, not even that Starbuck's barista who always screws up my order, not even him. You fall into a whole other category of hate. You surpass Starbucks barista. Congratulations, I'm actually a pretty nice person, making you worthy of every single bit of torture I wish upon you. What are these things I wish upon you you might ask?

Theater Kids

Throughout school, the theater department has always been my go-to place with go-to people when I need advice, a dance party, or just someone to listen to me vent.

You never know what's going to happen when you're dealing with theatre or what kind of characters you'll encounter. We have too much fun doing anything! One time in my senior year acting class, we spent an entire class period watching Bob's Burgers, and it was the greatest class period ever.
