You get annoyed or upset at things you shouldn’t.You get sad about things you shouldn’t.You cry to easily or just want a lot of affection.This is normal.This happens to everyone whether or not they want to admit it.But what happens or what do you do when someone says “you are way too sensitive” or “you get offended easily”?Do you overreact? Do you say absolutely nothing at all? It’s hard.It’s perfectly normal to feel a long range of emotions multiple times a day.

There are certain things that happen in everyday life that can trigger these range of emotions.Maybe you’ve had an off day that has just made you want to crawl into a shell.Maybe you’ve just aced one of your midterms and all you want to do is yell at the top of your lungs about how happy you are.JUST EXPRESS YOURSELF.You shouldn’t let other peoples comments control how you feel or want to be feeling.

I think it’s very important for people to be able to express how their feeling in their own. Special. Way. I express so many different emotions in so many different ways whenever; it may not always be a good way to do so but I definitely think that a majority of people feel restricted because they are too scared or what people have to say or think.

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?

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.
