Just Because I Snapped At You, That Doesn't Mean That I Hate You

It's not my fault I wasn't feeling well and snapped.

Just Because I Snapped At You, That Doesn't Mean That I Hate You

During our lives, we all snap at our friends at one point or another. That is to be expected in every culture. Everybody does it, no matter how strong their relationship or friendship is. It is inevitable.

Just a few days ago, I snapped at a good friend of mine. Now, she is acting like I do not even exist. We used to sit together in our class and at a movie screening for another class every Tuesday night. When I snapped at her (because I was not feeling well), she basically forgot all about my existence.

I am sorry I had a migraine. I am sorry you were acting like you had no clue that my nausea was because of my migraine. I am sorry you were saying to make sure I was basically pinned against a wall with someone right on top of me on the opposite side. I am sorry I get mad and snippy when I do not feel good, but honestly, this is not on me. You know how I get when I feel terrible.

I know I probably did not need to snap, but I have no control over what comes out of my mouth. And while you may be acting petty ever since it happened, I do not hate you. Am I mad that you are acting like this? Yes, but I have every right to be.

You have known me for over a year now. You have seen me when I do not feel good, so you know exactly what to expect from me if I am feeling absolutely horrible. You knew that I had had a migraine for several hours, and nothing was helping.

None of this should be getting thrown on me, when you're the one completely forgetting and pushing aside that I am not myself when I do not feel good.

Watching you give a presentation earlier in the week, I was able to notice your whole presence. I was in the front row. You were incredibly tense just because I was in the room. You looked angry that I even showed up, even though I am the one taking the course for a grade and you are just sitting in.

You refused to look at me. You looked at everybody else but me. Your partners looked at me, but you did not.

Why am I the one getting the backlash? You caused me to snap. I did not want to do it, but it just happened. That happens in life.

Friends are going to snap at friends. Are we even friends still? All you do is avoid me. I saw what you did the other night at the screening.

Oh, well. If we are no longer friends, it was nice knowing you. I hope you have a nice life. Maybe we will talk soon, but I doubt it.

Today I started my third week of college at Minnesota State Moorhead. I have survived welcome week, finding my classes on the first day, and being an awkward loner in the dining hall. Even though I have yet to be here for a month, I have already experienced many thoughts and problems that only a new college student can relate to.

"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?

Finals week is upon us. It is a magical time of year during which college students everywhere flock to the library in attempt to learn a semester's worth of knowledge in only a week.

Others have slaved away many nights under the fluorescent lights, and are slightly annoyed to find their study space being invaded by amateurs.

Here is a few signs that you may live in the library, whether you'd like to admit it or not.
