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.

5 Things To Do That Are Better Than Writing A Paper

Don't waste your time trying to write that paper when there are so many more interesting things you could be doing.

Writing a paper is never fun and is rarely rewarding. The writer's block, the page requirement, be specific, but don’t summarize, make sure you fixed any grammatical errors, did you even use spellcheck? and analyze, analyze, analyze.

Papers can be a major pain. They take up so much time and effort that by the end of the process you hate yourself and you hate the professor for making life so difficult. Questions of your existence start roaming in your mind. Am I even cut out for college if I can’t write a single paper? Am I even capable of taking care of myself if I lack the energy to open my laptop and start typing?

sisters

I can barely remember back when I was the only child. Most would say it’s because it is extremely difficult to remember things as a toddler but I would say it's because I was bored until my sister came along. My mother always says how important the "sister bond" is and with every year that passes I realize how right she is. Instead of writing a novel about all of the wonderful things there are about having a sister I decided to list a few of them instead.

It is the time of our lives that we are beginning to enter the adult world and most of us, if not all of us, have no idea what we are doing. It's like starting a video game, but skipping the tutorial. We're all just running around aimlessly hoping we accidentally do something right that moves us along the right path. Now that graduation has just happened, or is right around the corner for some of us, it's time to start thinking about how we are going to take care of ourselves once we are on our own.

If you’re anything like me, you love a good cup of coffee. My coffee always comes from Starbucks; I refuse to drink it from anywhere else. Over the years, it’s become one of my biggest addictions. So, if you are aware that you’re a Starbucks addict as well, or maybe you need to check to see if you’re an addict, here are seven ways to tell.

It can be overwhelming at times and it’s important to take a step a back and calmly think things over. Maybe gain some perspective. The following aren’t foolproof tips and may not apply to you, but I was able to find success with them (hope you do too!)
