Hi, My Name Is...

And this is what I want you to know about me.

Hi, My Name Is...
Ana Thompson

Hi, my name is Anastasia Thompson. I like to be called Ana. I am writing this because I have ran into some people who have gotten the wrong first impression of me. I have had multiple people tell me that they thought that I was mean and stuck up upon first glance. This bothers me because I have no control over this, it's my RBF! For those who don't know, RBF is a resting bitch face. I promise I don't mean to look like I hate the world! So for anybody who has seen me and gotten the wrong impression or anybody who would like to talk to me but won't because they think I look mean, please read this.

I am actually a really nice person I promise! My favorite things to do are play hockey, write, and spend time with friends and family. I love the outdoors and sunshine and I am a "stop and smell the roses" type of person. I enjoy trying to appreciate the smaller things in life. I value loyalty, honesty, respect, and hard work. I am not someone who goes out of their way to be mean, I love putting smiles on people's faces. I can't be sitting in one place for too long or else I go stir crazy. I am just as happy spending my weekends with a few friends going on small adventures as I am with going to parties. I am extremely shy and I wish I could change it but I don't know how. I will always try to do all that I can to help someone out, friend or not. I believe that you can never have too many friends, but as long as they are true friends, not fake ones.

Brace yourselves because here comes the more embarrassing stuff about me:

I still listen to kids music regularly. I'm talking about Hannah Montana, the Jonas Brothers, and soundtracks from my favorite Disney movies. I would rather watch a cartoon than anything else. If you asked me if I wanted to have an "Every Disney Movie Ever!" marathon, I would drop whatever I am doing and watch it with you. Sometimes I start singing randomly in public and I don't realize t because I think I'm singing in my head. I also dance randomly in public at times as well, and I am a terrible dancer. I talk to my cat when I have a bad day and I have accepted the fact that I will be a crazy cat lady when I grow up. I'm still afraid of the dark. I also can't watch scary movies on my own because I will get myself too scared and I won't be able to sleep, even with the lights on.

I just wanted to tell everyone who doesn't know me well enough to know this stuff, this is who I am. Although I try to show veeryone this side of me I can't because my shyness oercomes me and I find it hard to speak to people. But I promise that if you take the time to get to know this side of me, my favorite side of me, you will have a lifelong friend.

For the average 20-something, life moves pretty fast. You’ve got classes, friends, relationships, jobs, family, and whatever else we overcommit ourselves with. I probably should have learned to say no to adding more to my schedule a long time ago, but instead here are 11 things that can be more helpful than coffee.

You are commonly asked what's wrong, when nothing is. What people don't know is that is just your facial expression. Here are some things they wish you knew.

College students, you might be able to relate to this one. These probably sound familiar because we often tell ourselves these phrases; however, we are unable to follow or agree with these the following, deep down inside of our overwhelmed, tired minds.

1. "No more spending money on useless things"

Until you walk into a 99 cents store and suddenly have the urge to pick up anything that's less than a dollar.

As college students, we are all familiar with the horror show that is course registration week. Whether you are an incoming freshman or selecting classes for your last semester, I am certain that you can relate to how traumatic this can be.

1. When course schedules are released and you have a conflict between two required classes.

Bonus points if it is more than two.
