7 Reasons It Sucks To Step Outdoors During Allergy Season

What's a deep breath again?

Spring is in the air and we all know what that means: allergies. If you're anything like me, you dread this time of year, because with all the gorgeous flowers and warm sunshine comes the worst, yellow thing on the face of this earth. Having allergies isn't just sneezing uncontrollably- it's a straight up battle.

1. Looking out the window and deciding to never leave the house.

The worst feeling is when you look at the window and see everything in sight is covered in faint yellow dusting. And that's when you know: it's pollen season.

2. Your eyes tearing up the second you go outside.

No I'm not crying, this pollen is just killing my body and my soul.

3. Sneezing every five seconds.

It's impossible to get anything done when you basically have a body spasm every other second.

4. Not being able to breathe.

It sucks when you get winded going up two flights of stairs (because you totally don't get winded when you can breathe).

5. Feeling like you're going to throw up.

Contrary to what people think, some allergies can be so bad they can actually make you feel nauseous.

6. Being tired all the time.

Maybe it's from all the squinting, or from the feeling super run-down, but one thing's for sure, when you have allergies all you want to do is take a nap.

7. Praising when it's no longer spring.

Once it's summer and the pollen starts to die down, you can finally take a deep breath again and go outside.

18 Things I Want To Do Now That I'm 18

I'm technically an adult, so I'm legally required to live a little, right?

Happy Birthday Cake

For the entirety of my high school career, I was always seen as the goody-two-shoes. I never got in trouble with a teacher, I kept stellar grades, and when I wasn't doing extracurricular activities, I was at home studying. Even when I did go out, it was usually with a bunch of fellow band geeks. The night would end before 11:00 PM and the only controversial activity would be a fight based on who unfairly won a round of Apples-to-Apples when someone else clearly had a better card (I promise I'm not still holding a grudge).

Now that I'm officially an adult, I want to pursue some new things. I want to experience life in a way that I never allowed myself to do prior to entering college. These are the years that I'm supposed to embark on a journey of self-discovery, so what better way to do that than to create a bucket list?

So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.
