A College Student And The Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Day

It's gonna get better. Or not. No matter what, I still want to go to sleep and wait for midnight to arrive.

A College Student And The Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Day

Dear the Me I will be tomorrow,

Today sucked. Today blew. Today could not get any worse - great, now I just jinxed myself!

Hopefully, you are laughing at me. I am praying you are making fun of me, feeling better, over the small annoyances that plagued me today. I hope all your dreams come true. I would like to think you just won a million dollars, stopped watching Netflix, or were in Disney World...ugh, I miss Disney World. That fairy godmother would give me less stress instead of a pretty dress if you know what I'm saying.

I'm exhausted both mentally and emotionally. It's like my schoolwork and my drama met and decided to get it on right in front of me. And it's not even that cute kind of hookup. It's that drunk hookup that they did just to blind me and make me vulnerable to the cluster-baby the two made for me. I know, Me, I have had bad days before. But this is the worst! You gotta believe me!

First, I forgot to do my homework last night, and don't be disappointed! We both know that the next Sunday me will be watching football all night instead of doing work! Anyway, I set my alarms two hours earlier, so I could get up and get my work done. Seven in the morning is not the earliest I had to get up, and I was in bed by midnight- more than enough time!

My alarm went off. I think I groaned. I turned it off. I slept for two more hours.

I see you shaking your head, Me! It was a long weekend filled with drama! I needed the extra hours! And my bed was comfy...and I was...okay, I was lazy! Sorry!

Moving on, I got up for my first class which because that homework was surprisingly done, and I...I...skipped the class I forgot to do homework for! Three weeks into school and the sophomore slump has begun. At that point of the day, I had grown comfortable with the fact that I was most likely going to fail out of school.

And you know that drama that happened over the weekend? Hopefully, it's gone for tomorrow, but today it still lingers in our friend group. It's annoying, but I am trying to just "chill" like everyone has been telling everyone else to do. So yes, I started watching Stranger Things! I was weak and trying to "chill!" I know i just finished Quantico too. I was spineless and weak today. You are the strong one!

Then, you know that boy we like? You most likely will still like him tomorrow if you have a brain. Well, he saw me with my pink headband on! We both know the pink headband makes us look like we are literally seven years old! So yes, I literally ran the other way. No shame! Actually, I had a lot of shame, but I am just trying to get over myself and the fact that I hid.

At least my friend made buffalo chicken dip out of the horrible dinning food. I will never know how she makes something so beautiful, but maybe you and the other Me's will find out. So I ate that...and six tacos...and I didn't go to the gym...and now my stomach is cramping with all sorts of bad things!

And finally, I made myself look like a fool in front of my whole dinning hall because I was messing with my friend as he sniped me on camera...so I ran up to him at the window in a really "attractive" way, somehow thinking that no one would see me. Everyone did. Everyone.

And now, I am at work, trying to get my like together, literally having the biggest fantasy about getting into my bed and sleeping! Let me just sleep the day away.

You have such a beautiful blank slate tomorrow, so I just wanted to let you know about today. You have such a positive outlook compared to the Me I am now- the one who has been worn down to nothing. You can do it. You can fix everything. You could be laughing at the annoying little weasel I am today.

Or you can be in Disney World.

I hope you are in Disney World.

Love, with all of my emotionally drained heart,

The Me of this Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Day

P.S. I'll be crying myself to sleep in the corner, so if you wake up with a sore neck, sorry about that.

In honor of Mother’s Day, I have been thinking of all the things my mom does for my family and me. Although I couldn’t write nearly all of them, here are a few things that moms do for us.

They find that shirt that’s right in front of you, but just you can’t seem to find.

10 Reasons To Thank Your Best Friend

Take the time to thank that one friend in your life you will never let go of.

Thank You on wooden blocks

1. Thank you for being the one I can always count on to be honest.

A true friend will tell you if the shirt is ugly, or at least ask to borrow it and "accidentally" burn it.

2. Thank you for accepting me for who I am.

A best friend will love you regardless of the stale french fries you left on the floor of your car, or when you had lice in 8th grade and no one wanted to talk to you.

Everybody gets sick once in a while, but getting sick while in college is the absolute worst. You're away from home and your mom who can take care of you and all you really want to do is just be in your own bed.

Being sick in college is really tough and definitely not a fun experience. Here are the 15 stages that everyone ends up going through when they are sick at college.

Do as I say, not as I do.

Your eyes widen in horror as you stare at your phone. Beads of sweat begin to saturate your palm as your fingers tremble in fear. The illuminated screen reads, "Missed Call: Mom."

Growing up with strict parents, you learn that a few things go unsaid. Manners are everything. Never talk back. Do as you're told without question. Most importantly, you develop a system and catch on to these quirks that strict parents have so that you can play their game and do what you want.

"Friends" maybe didn’t have everything right or realistic all the time, but they did have enough episodes to create countless reaction GIFs and enough awesomeness to create, well, the legacy they did. Something else that is timeless, a little rough, but memorable? Living away from the comforts of home. Whether you have an apartment, a dorm, your first house, or some sort of residence that is not the house you grew up in, I’m sure you can relate to most of these!
