If you know me, you know my hungry mood. The mood where I’m irritated and extra sassy for what seems like no apparent reason. Funny thing is, sometimes I don’t even realize it’s because I’m hungry, everything is just SO ANNOYING. I can’t talk to anyone. I can’t look at anyone. I can’t be near anyone. The only thing I can think of comparing myself to when I’m hungry is a gremlin… and not the cute version. But then I get food, do a little happy dance and it’s all good. Is that dramatic? Yes. Yes it is.

So, why does this happen? Well. Sometimes I forget to eat. You’re probably thinking, “WHAT? WHO FORGETS TO EAT??” Don’t get me wrong, I love food. But you see, on days I have a lot of classes or other things to do that take up big blocks of my day it can be hard to find the time. Other times I’m too stubborn to admit my mood is because of food and don’t want to listen to the people telling me what to do. I know, that’s bad. We’re working on it.

I’m pretty sure everyone in my friends and family has seen this happen. I started bringing snacks with me to class just in case. I make sure I eat a good breakfast on days I know I won’t be able to get to a dining hall for at least four hours since apparently, I must eat every 2-3 hours or else. But those rare moments do happen. So when they do watch out and don’t take it personally.


I’d like to say thank you to all the people who don’t question why my mood literally plummets into an abyss of aggravation with myself and the world around me and instead try to solve the problem. Thank you to my mom for always getting snacks/lunch when we’re out shopping. Thank you for my dad for passing down this wonderful personality trait upon me. (Don’t try and tell me you aren’t like this too, okay.)

Consider this a formal apology to anyone that has had to deal with my hangriness. It’s not you, it’s my hungry alter ego. She’s ruthless when it comes to her food. All you have to do is place a food item in front of her and wait. Sometimes she’ll insist she’s not hungry and try to refuse it for whatever reason but more likely than not, it’ll be gone in a few minutes. Don’t let her fool you.

In case you're unaware, "resting bitch face" is the term used to describe when a person's natural, expressionless face makes it look like they are mad at the world. Whether they are walking down the street or simply spacing out thinking about what to eat for dinner, it's very easy for others to assume that this person is either upset or mad at them. Because of this, those of us with Resting Bitch Face (RBF), and especially us women, have all experienced many of the same situations and conversations, including:

We've all had a crush before. Whether it leads to something or nothing, the process has all been the same. The awkward feelings, the stalking, and the stress of trying to keep this huge secret. The feeling of becoming a total spazz is something that cannot be avoided, and the most spazzy family that can relate to this feeling is the Belcher's.

At the tender age of 18, we are bestowed with the title of “adult.” For 17 years, we live under the rules and guidelines of our parents, school, and government, and to stray from any of those rules or guidelines marks us as a rebel. At 18, though, we must choose which college we want to go to or what career we want. We are allowed and encouraged to vote. We can buy lottery tickets and cigarettes. We can drop out of school, leave our household, and do other "adult" things. At 18, we start down a path of thinking for ourselves, when for the entirety of our lives other institutions have been mandated to think and do for us.

Creating your schedule for the upcoming semester can be an exciting process. You have the control to decide if you want to have class two-days a week or five-days a week. You get to check things off of your requirement checklist. It's an opportunity for a fresh start with new classes (which you tell yourself you'll never skip.) This process, which always starts out so optimistic, can get frustrating really quickly. Here are 25 thoughts you have when registering for classes.

10 Thoughts Of A 5th Year Senior

What about those of us who don't do it all in four years?

"College will be the best four years of your life" is a phrase that we have all heard growing up. College is painted as a magical place to us while we are in high school. A place you go to learn, meet your best friends and probably have the time of your life while all of this is going down. Four whirlwind years, where everything that you've known changes and you start to learn what it means to live on your own, have a job, etc. But what about those of us who don't do this all in four years? Major changes, hard courses, switching schools, career paths changing, these are just a handful of factors that could extend your four years to five, six or seven. There is nothing wrong with taking extra time to graduate, but returning as a fifth-year is a little different. Most of your best friends have most likely graduated and moved and while you may be one of the oldest undergraduates on campus, you might feel as awkward as a freshmen. A world that became home and comfortable to you is still there but it's slightly different than you've known it to be and you have to find a groove to fall into. These are thoughts you'll have as you look ahead to returning to your college campus, with a victory lap planned.
