Top 5 Of My Biggest Pet Peeves

Hello my loves. If you know me personally, then you know that I am one of the happiest and most positive people you'll probably ever come across. I usually try to keep my negative thoughts and comments to myself but sometimes my facial expressions pretty much give away my true feelings and you'll know when I'm displeased because I have no problem telling you. I'm a Taurus, and don't get me wrong– we can be really sweet. But when it comes to our anger, we definitely come out of character. So with that being said, I will be discussing 5 of my biggest pet peeves.

1. Smacking

I absolutely hate when people smack their food. Like what's the point of you doing that? Not only can I see the chewed up food that you have in your mouth, but I can also hear the obnoxious sound that you are making while doing it. Then you wanna catch an attitude when I tell you to stop. Like I don't play around with food bro! Do this around me and I'll ask you to get up from the table.


2. When People Ask For Your Food

Look, I get the whole sharing is caring thing but girl...if we're out and you order your food and I order mine, don't ask me if you can have some of mine. Like girl, you should have ordered it then. I will literally buy it for you if you really want it, I'm not even joking! As long as it keeps me from physically giving away the food I want to put into my body.


3. When White People Ask To Touch Your Hair

And sometimes they don't even freaking ask! They act like it's some sort of exotic animal.


4. Being Interrupted Or Talked Over

Breathe. Breathe. Okay, I hate when I'm with a group of people and I get asked a question, try to answer and the next thing you know they're putting their two cents in, in the middle of my conversation. Like it literally wants to make me hop across the table and just snatch them up!

5. "You're pretty for a black girl"

Boy what? Was that suppose to be a compliment? Then they are confused as to why you're offended. Like honey, you're basically saying that you're shocked to know that there are actually beautiful black girls out there. That's the issue. I have heard this many times from many boys, and it's annoying and disrespectful! Stop saying it, it's not a f*cking compliment! Every time a boy says that to me it's an automatic denial and I am no longer interested.

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?

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?

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. 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.
