The Top 8 Stages Of Road Rage
Annie Spokorner

I personally do not find myself to be a bad driver. Yeah, I might drive a little fast sometimes but who doesn't? I have most definitely seen a lot worse off drivers than myself so, is it really that bad? I don't feel like I am such a bad driver as much as I am an angry/ possibly to the point of aggressive driver..? My best friend and I are just about the same person so it is not to my surprise that we share the same driving habits. Ours moms are always telling us to calm down when we start yelling about other drivers. It is not that we are angry, we are only expressing how we feel about the other stupid drivers on the road. Everyone has always been to that point when you just can not handle the idiots on the road, here are the top 10 stages of road rage.

Stage 1: Just minding your own business driving around.

It is just a normal day and you are driving around minding your own business then, from out of the corner of your eye you just barely see an idiot cut in and out of traffic.

Stage 2: Whispering to yourself how much you hate when people weave in and out of traffic.

I get changing different lanes every once in awhile but is it really necessary to be weaving in and out of rush hour traffic? We are all trying to get somewhere and cutting someone off and making them slam on their breaks which makes everyone else slam on their breaks which creates even more traffic.

Stage 3: Expressing calmly to the passengers in the vehicle of the dumb ass behind you.

At first, everyone is always like "Oh, just don't even bother with those idiots." or "Just calm down." That only makes my road rage grow stronger, to be honest.

Stage 4: The angry traffic weaver starts to approach you to get by, hell no that is not happening...

You see him coming up behind you like a speed demon, I personally like to slow down until the person tries to pass me in the other lane and they get trapped behind the person in the lane next to you then when you speed up and they get behind you again, just keep tapping on the breaks.

Stage 5: I have no officially pissed off the guy behind me, I guess this is war...

I like to push my limit with people on the road sometimes, especially when you end up trying to race them to the end of the merge lane and you both get stuck at the red light... This is usually the time that people piss me off the most.

Stage 6: This is the end of the line, I will kick your ass in this race.

This is usually the moment when the passengers in the car start to fear for their life, I never like to lose a race when I am this close.

Stage 7: This is the part where I always forget that I only drive a four cylinder...

Usually, by the time that I remind myself of this, it is always too late...

Stage 8: My car pulls through for me!

I finally kicked this guys ass!

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
