Going to the gym is a task that no one enjoys. We always hate the process it entails, and yet, we still go. I don't think I've ever met someone who has been excited to go to the gym. Even the thought of having to go to the gym tomorrow haunts me. Even though we hate going, we find ourselves showing up ready to take on the sweaty and used machines, and of course, the muscle-heads who only lift weights to stay in shape.

Whether you're trying to stay fit, lose some weight, or get in shape for bikini season, we have at least one thing in common: our thought process while working out. We all try and think about different things, but here are 33 things ALL girls have thought about at least once while at the gym.

1. Okay, time to work out

2. Can I skip today's workout?

3. No, I need to look good for bikini season

4. If I work out now, I can go out this weekend

5.Okay, I'm here... it's cardio time

6. There's no elliptical open, so I guess I can run on a treadmill

7. LOL I hate running, Stair Master it is!

8. I'm already breaking a sweat... how long has it been?!

9. Wow, only 7 minutes? This workout is endless

10. I can't wait to eat after this

11. Maybe I''ll get a burger... or pizza... or BOTH!

12. Okay, 30 minute cardio is up... abs circuit time

13. How do I use these machines...?

14. How many reps should I do?

15. Crap, there's a really hot guy next to me, stay calm!!!

16. Maybe I can impress him with my work out #skill

17. Just kidding, I probably look so stupid right now

18. I don't belong here... why did I decide this was a good idea?

19. Wait, what rep was I on again?

20. Whatever, I'm sure I did all of them

21. I can already feel my abs forming

22. I should make a really great workout playlist right now

23. Okay, let's do some pull-ups

24. Wow, I'm feeling so great about myself right now!

25. This is too hard. That girl made it look so easy...

26. I have no upper body strength

27. Oh this song is my jam!

28. Don't start dancing, you're in public

29. Okay, back to pull-ups

30. I should do this more often

31. Who am I kidding, I'll probably come back in 2 weeks

32. I'm over this. I've done enough for the day!

33. I deserve a burger... and some fries

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.
