And they say boys are gross.

Bathrooms have been around since early civilization and have continued to grow and improve over the centuries. What has not changed, however, is how absolutely gross public restrooms are - especially the girls' bathrooms. There is nothing more devastating than having a tiny bladder and being a continuously thirsty, water dependent girl in the 21st century bathrooms. As young as elementary school, we have had to face horrors men could never understand. Through middle school we have had to learn how to wash blood off our clothes and yet some girls - even in a working office - still can't wipe the seat. Gross! If only that were the grossest thing girls and women face in public restrooms. For example:

1. Toilet Paper ... Everywhere.

And they are not always dry or on the floor.

2. Toilet Paper Seat... used.

Okay, covering the toilet seat to take a quick piss is totally understandable - encouraged even! But leaving it there after using it is just disgusting!

3. Period Trails

I am a girl too, and I know taking care of that tampon or pad is so not fun or clean in any sense of the word - but is it really so hard to just clean up after yourself? This is not your house, please have some respect and human decency.

4. Pad Flyers

This is just plain childish and stupid. Why, why, would you waste expensive pads by plastering them onto the stall walls and/or doors? Really?

5. Used razors

Just throw them away.

6. Used Razors... with hair.

*Barfs in mouth* that is just wrong, chick. Throw it away please

7. Toilets Unflushed... still filled with blood.

Were you raised in the wild?

8. Skid Marks

I get that you don't have that handly toilet brush with you, but we would not fault you flushing 5 times to make sure that the sh*t - excuse me - skid mark is gone. It's gross on all sides.

9. Not spraying after ending your business.

No one wants to know that that splash we just heard was a juicy turd. Please mind our noses?

10. Bringing your business into shared space.

We all get horny. Find a car or go home. Banging in a public multi-stalled bathroom is just plain rude. Get off somewhere else, girlie.

11. Lipstick writing

No one wants to clean that up. And do you really want to use that tube on your lips after smearing it in a cespool of bacteria? And why waste such a beautiful (and costly) shade?

and Bonus:

12. Sink clogging

Why, exactly, did you need to put an entire roll of paper in the sink? And the hair! Bathrooms are for peeing, pooping and hand cleaning. Take your grooming elsewhere, I beg of you.

After all the years saying boys are far more disgusting than girls, I have come to not believe it. After all, they don't bleed murder and leave it behind in a bathroom stall every 28 days, do they?

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.

December... it's full of finals, due dates, Mariah Carey, and the holidays. It's the worst time of the year, but the best because after finals, you get to not think about classes for a month and catch up on all the sleep you lost throughout the semester. But what's worse than finals week is the last week of classes, when all the due dates you've put off can no longer be put off anymore.
