An Honest Letter To The People Killing My Vibe

Dear Person Trying To Kill My Vibe,

Why? Are you so miserable with your daily life that you find it completely necessary to cast shade over someone else's parade? Yes, I say parade because I tend to feel like, on my good days, I am parading around, sharing the joy I'm experiencing with all who will join. Did you feel left out? Parades are not invitation only. You're absolutely welcome to join in on the festivities. I am friendly and would gladly embrace your presence with positive vibes.

What will not be welcomed is a negative attitude. Like when I say, ”Good morning," and you say, "What's so good about it?" Well, the sun came up, there is still oxygen for us to breathe, you are alive and you can still sometimes buy a cup of coffee for 99 cents. Please, pick one! Yes, we all know that person against the wall at the parade, complaining because they haven't caught anything. You never will with that kind of attitude. A little effort doesn't cost a thing. Are you the kind of person who seems to think the world owes you something or that you're better than everyone else? You don't have to admit it, because I know you won't. Just know that I can tell by the things you do and the way you treat others. It isn't cool. No one wants to be around someone that makes them feel inferior.


In all reality, if you feel superior to others at all, you probably aren't. We're all equal and the best people understand that. They wouldn't make someone else feel less than them. Some people may make better decisions than others, or know more important people, which may put them in superior positions. That doesn't make them better people. Our actions and the way we treat others is a reflection of who we are, not our status or position in society. Some of the worst people in the world have all they could ever want, and some of the best people have nothing.

Life isn't about quantity, it's about quality, and I want to be around people who see that, too. The people you surround yourself with make a huge impact on who you are, no matter how much we don't want to admit it.

So surround yourself with people who truly understand you. There's no greater treasure in life. I love being around people who are authentic. If you want to know something, ask me! I enjoy indulging in deep and honest conversations with people, even if it's only to satisfy their curiosity. I don’t mind telling you why I think or feel a certain way, and would love some feedback on your views even more. Everyone will judge you, so be realistic and bring it to me real. That's what being an adult is about, learning to handle the truth. As long as we can still be cool and have a good time after all is said and done, the parade will persist. If you can't offer an opinion, respectfully without killing my vibe, goodbye.

"Make sure to get involved when you're in college!"

We've all heard some variation of this phrase, whether it came from parents, other family members, friends, RAs, or college-related articles. And, like many clichés, it's true for the most part. Getting involved during your college years can help you make friends, build your resume, and feel connected to your campus. However, these commitments can get stressful if you're dealing with personal issues, need to work, or aren't sure how to balance classes and everything else going on during the semester.

In college, one of the essential things to have is friends. Yes, textbooks, a laptop, and other school supplies are important but friends are essential. Friends are that support system everybody needs. The more friends you have the better the support system you have. But you also have someone to share experiences with. And don’t settle for just one or two friends because 8 out of 10 times they are busy and you are studying all alone. Or they have other friend groups that do not include you. Don’t settle for just one or two friends; make as many friends as you can. After the first couple of weeks of college, most friend groups are set and you may be without friends.

For a moment your world is spinning. The phone alarm has just scared you awake and you’re flooded by daunting thoughts of the day ahead. You have three assignments due and little time to work on them because of your job. You’re running late because you’ve hit snooze one to many times after yesterday’s long hours. You dizzily reach for a hoodie, craving its comfort, and rush for a speedy exit, praying you will have time to pick up coffee. Does this sound familiar?

1. People assume you are mad all of the time.

2. Ten out of ten times you will give off an intimidating impression to others.

3. People do not acknowledge your feelings because you "do not have any."

4. Constantly being exhausted from trying to smile and not look like a witch.

5. And on the rare occasion your facial expressions show how happy you are, your friends think you are going crazy.

6. Each of your friends has said "I thought you were so mean when I first met you" at some point.

7. Then they follow that by saying "you are just hard to read."

8. So naturally if people do not know you they just assume you are a snob.

9. And when you are actually mad, your facial expressions are horrifying.

10. In the end you always look like you are judging people, when in reality people are ALWAYS judging you.
