Tough Girls Have Feelings Too

And no, we do not want to talk about them.

Tough Girls Have Feelings Too

I like to think of myself as pretty tough. I never typically like to show any more emotion than the typical ones. You will know when I am happy and you will definitely know when I am mad, but it is a little more questionable to tell with all my other emotions. I have no problem telling someone when I am mad, but all the other feelings I do not wish to talk about LIKE EVER. That is just how I am. I know I am not the only girl like this who does not cry watching The Titanic or talk about her emotions literally 24/7. I just know so many more ways I would rather spend my time than talking about my feelings and being bothered by them. Since I am probably not the only girl like this, I wanted to inform everyone that tough girls have feelings too. We just handle them a heck of a lot different than everyone else and avoid ugly Kim K crying as much as possible.

Sure, we may not talk about them all the time. You may have to pull our emotions out of us when we are upset, but we do have them. We just do not like showing them. So do not make us think we have to cry watching The Titanic, and do not make us feel like it is weird that we do not talk about our feelings anytime something happens. Sometimes we cry at weddings and only sometimes, but that is usually due to alcohol consumption. It is okay to not cry, that is totally normal too. When we are upset and if it is important to us, we will be sure to tell you. But we would rather not waste our time crying unnecessary tears or talking about some boy who did us wrong because we know he is a fool for doing it. Just know that we have them and we will talk about them when we want to.

Also for all you girls out there who hate showing emotion, it is okay. It is okay to not be a "normal girl" and not talk about your feelings every second, but just know it is also okay to talk about your feelings when necessary. We all have different ways of going about our emotions, but one thing is for sure we all have feelings, unfortunately.

The Daily Struggles of Being a College Commuter

It's not all morning coffees and singing along to the radio.

The Daily Struggles of Being a College Commuter
morethanwheels

I've been in college for four years now. I spent half my time as a commuter and half as a resident so I've experienced both sides of the housing spectrum. One thing I've learned comparing the two is that my struggles as a commuter far outweigh anything I went through while living on campus. Commuters have to deal with the problems school brings along with a slew of other issues; I've filled up my gas tank in the worst kind of weather conditions and napped in random places in public more times than I'm proud to say of. This is a list of some of the most challenging aspects of being a commuter.

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!
