What's Going On?

A bit on hookups

What's Going On?
rush hour

This summer I have met new people online also while walking alone, Being the girl that I am, I end up exchanging numbers with them of course we both agree in exchanging numbers. Yet, sometimes I forget to text these potential friends because I am busy or sometimes I just feel like I have nothing to say.

I mean a girl can only do so much when you get asked " what are you doing?" every few hours during the week. Like it is summer and all I am doing is sleeping, EATING, and catching up on my shows and do you really find that interesting? probably not. In all honesty, I just want to text I am being a slob, do not judge me. And no I am not always a boring person but hey if all you do is text me "what are you doing?" or "are you home?" chances are if I text you I will take my sweet time. I will tell you I am busy when you ask me if I am home because well I did just meet you and no you are not welcome in my house. I do not know what you want, okay I do and boy bye. But then again I am not really sure like can you just be straight up and tell me. Come on I do not like playing mind games.

Like I get it, we are living in this hookup culture so relationships are not really being taken seriously but just because I agreed and gave you my number does not mean I am being part of the hook-up culture. I personally give my number out to people if they ask for it because I want to meet new people. I am interested in learning from people and going on adventures and if we end up liking each other well why not but it does suck when the other person is not telling you what is going on in their head.

So, before you have people waste their time or before you waste yours just be straightforward and let people know what you are looking for. I guarantee you, it is a lot easier for the both of you.

And if you happen to be an individual that is looking for a friends with benefits relationship, well communicate that as soon as possible with the person you are talking too. Do agree on terms, protect yourself, and if you need to do get tested for STDs. Most importantly, always remember that both if you need to agree on things.

Also, if you do not know what you are looking for make it clear cause no one likes to waste their time or likes to wonder what the hell is happening between y'all. Anyway stay safe.

In honor of Mother’s Day, I have been thinking of all the things my mom does for my family and me. Although I couldn’t write nearly all of them, here are a few things that moms do for us.

They find that shirt that’s right in front of you, but just you can’t seem to find.

Thank You on wooden blocks

1. Thank you for being the one I can always count on to be honest.

A true friend will tell you if the shirt is ugly, or at least ask to borrow it and "accidentally" burn it.

2. Thank you for accepting me for who I am.

A best friend will love you regardless of the stale french fries you left on the floor of your car, or when you had lice in 8th grade and no one wanted to talk to you.

Do as I say, not as I do.

Your eyes widen in horror as you stare at your phone. Beads of sweat begin to saturate your palm as your fingers tremble in fear. The illuminated screen reads, "Missed Call: Mom."

Growing up with strict parents, you learn that a few things go unsaid. Manners are everything. Never talk back. Do as you're told without question. Most importantly, you develop a system and catch on to these quirks that strict parents have so that you can play their game and do what you want.

"Friends" maybe didn’t have everything right or realistic all the time, but they did have enough episodes to create countless reaction GIFs and enough awesomeness to create, well, the legacy they did. Something else that is timeless, a little rough, but memorable? Living away from the comforts of home. Whether you have an apartment, a dorm, your first house, or some sort of residence that is not the house you grew up in, I’m sure you can relate to most of these!
