7 Overanalyses Of An Overthinker

I can't help but overthink everything. As an over-thinker, I spend half my time living my life, while the other half is spent thinking about how to live my life. To be honest, it's exhausting. But if I ever stop, I feel like I am going to do the wrong thing because I didn't think about it before. And the cycle keeps on rolling. We have to accept that we just overthink everything and try to keep it to a minimum. But no matter what people say, its a part of you. Or is it?

1. You overthink you think too much.

Basically, you are thinking about how you think and never stop overthinking. Sometimes it feels like there is just no end.

2. Your friends are constantly telling you you're over thinking.

But once they do this, you have to think if they're mad at you or not. And you go from overthinking what you were thinking before, to overthinking that. And after it all, you're just like...

3. Trying on clothes is an overly stressful process.

When I try on an outfit I have to look at it and think if there's too much cleavage, whether the suede boots are too sexy and should I go for the leather ones, or if I'm too casual or too dressy and so on. And if one of these things doesn't work, I have to take it all off and start over. Even though this sounds like your average girl, we over-thinkers take it one step further, sometimes even down to not going to things because nothing works.

4. You worry whether you posted too much on social media.

I mean this picture is cute, and that one is funny... but will people think I'm on my phone too much? Will they be annoyed I posted so much? It's fall break, it's totally fine to post this many pictures of my dog. *Five minutes later* nope, nope, *deletes story* It's an hourly struggle.

5. Texting your crush is the hardest process alive.

You have to think about who texted first last time, whether your message is too long or too short, figuring out when to send it, what words to use, or if you dare even use an emoji. And then if he doesn't reply right away... you start to plan your funeral because he either isn't replying because he hates you or finds you annoying. But really, the poor guy is just really bad at replying, in class, or taking a nap. But is he though? That is the question...

6. Group Chats are stressful.

Did I send too many texts compared to the other people? I'm the only one who sends pictures, does that make me annoying? NO ONE IS REPLYING... Welp I guess my dog can be my best friend.

7. And you are always trying to not to overthink and not care what others think...but you always end up back where you were...on the ground... crying.

So for the sake of our family and friends, let's try and...

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?

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.
