We dont want to hear it
Crave TV

Many of us growing up have been making a mental note of things we just do not like to hear. weather it be about us, our friends, our family, or even something we enjoy doing. We all know deep down what these things are, but I think the biggest thing is, we don't vocalize it when others say it. A few of the main things people say, that really grind my gears are as followed:

1. "Wow (insert food you are about to consume) is so gross."
Thanks, ya know I was going to eat it but now, now I'm going to throw it in the trash.

2. " That's not very ladylike"
That's nice, but I don't care. Maybe I don't want to be lady like.

3. "You should go to church more"
Yeah and you should too because you have too much time on your hands to tell me to go.

4. *while yelling across store* "What size are you again?"
I'm no size, I will just get it myself thank you. I didn't need the whole store to know what size I am.

5. "Are you wearing that again?"
Yes I am wearing it again, I have a washer and dryer and I enjoy it so YES MOM I AM GOING TO WEAR IT AGIAN.

6. " Is that a good choice?"
No probably not, but sometimes its the not so good choices that make life interesting

7. "You should really drink decaf"
Yeah should I? Well unless you want me to be antisocial I think Ill get regular

8."I've had it worse"
Well I'm sorry you perceive it that way but everyone reacts/responds differently to things, so unfortunately, I don't now about that.

9."Wow, *(insert Ex's name here)* has really upgraded."
Thank you, thank you so much for bringing up that irrelevant individual up and telling how great their life is going compared to mine.

10." Before I met you I thought you were really mean"
This has to be one of my favorites. Like wow thank you, I am so glad you thought I was mean and I was able tp alter your opinion on me.

It's officially December. There is less than a month of 2024, and I still feel like yesterday was summer. Now comes the merriest time of the year, the Christmas season.

Everyone has been waiting for this time of year since mid-October (which is way too early, in my opinion) or before. It's a time of love, family, memory-making, and gift-giving. A lot of times when I ask friends and family what they want, I get a lot of "I don't know" or "I don't care."

mu bucket list

I was sitting at my cubicle, now that I am an adult, looking at the rain pouring down on the windowsill, bumming on life, wishing for the rain to just stop for a full day.

There are moments where we count down the hours until work is over and how many more days till the weekend, and this many weeks until something exciting. Or something like that? Well, I was bumming because my next day off from work is not until Memorial Day weekend, which is not until the end of May. And since this is my first year out of college being a “real person,” I am totally missing the winter, spring and summer breaks. I am sure all of us have felt this way even if just for a hot minute…
