College Finals

So...I'm going to rant on a little bit on how much I hate finals. Okay, it's my first semester of college, and guess who has an exam on the first day? Not a big deal? Well, try doing a 2.5 hour calculus exam right after a psychology test. My mind was on the frying pan for too long. It withered and dried; I've used up all my juice.

It's not the fact that I had two tests in one day, it's the amount of energy both tests required that hurt so much. Specifically for psychology, the test required a lot of analytical thinking. It's just so painful...like every thought felt like I was slowly extracting a thorn that was embedded in my head. They're not simple definition questions, they're concepts that must be applied in various situations and the answers sound the same! It hurts me to even think about it.

[Ironically, I'm majoring in psychology, but it doesn't mean I can't complain. Anyway, I got my scores and was thrilled to see I got a good score.]

Anyway. After the psychology exam, I got something to eat and studied a few more concepts I was shaky on in calculus. Then, time came to take the test. I was nervous out of my mind! I wasn't doing so hot in that class to begin with, and this was the mother of all tests. It was worth 200 points and proved to be a real pain in the butt. I could do the questions (well, most of them anyway), but they were so time consuming! [Insert more painful mental imagery here.] Then there were those few questions that I look at and remember seeing on a previous quiz...but I had forgotten to look over them! Oh joy. Some of them I even recalled looking at and saying, "She won't put that on the exam."

She did.

Thankfully, only a handful of them were like that, the rest I think I did pretty well on. I'll just have to wait until the scores come out. Wish me luck!

Relaxation Blip

Bubbling soap floated gently around you as you lowered yourself into the warm bath. A sweet lavender scent lingered with every breath you took. You lay your head back against the tub and sigh a relieving, relaxed sigh as all the worries of the world melted away at that very moment. You savor that moment a second longer until--

You are shaken awake.
"Hey, get up. Why are you sleeping on your laptop? Just go to bed."



WHYY? Leave. Me. Alone.

20 Things that Irritate Me

Everyone has pet peeves. Some people hate the sound of a pen clicking simultaneously while others hate watching people eat, or someone sucking their straw at the last drops of drink left, and so on. There are so many, but here's a list of my top 20:

1. People who touch my computer screen or cell phone and leave their fingerprints all over it and I spend fifteen minutes trying to rub them all off. 
2. People with double-standards. If you don't like someone doing something or acting in a certain way, don't do it yourself!
3. Fragments. When honoring people for making such good posts. That's a fragment. in my head I'm like "... ... ...!!! You're not done yet! What about honoring them? What about people? What is life? Aflkajsdflkjalksdjflkajdslkfj."
4. When people use unnecessary quotation marks. Like this sign I once saw: "Do Not" Smoke! Or a famous one: Fresh Brown "Eggs". If they're "eggs", what are they? Quotations nowadays are used for sarcasm, for things that are not as they seem, or of course quoting something. They are in no way used for emphasis or as an attention getter. 
5. People who chew and making chomping noises. No not that crisp, "I just ate some Doritos" sound, but that "I'm eating a cheese sandwich," kind of way. 
6. Pplz d@T r!te lyyyke dis nd staff!!! I spend more time deciphering your crap than you do making your so-called abbreviations. Learn to type words, please. Thanks. 
7. Writing a long message to someone (usually through texting) and they just reply, "K." Really now? Really? 
8. People who read over my shoulder when I'm on my computer or phone.
9. When people pronounce my name wrong. [For any future reference of my name (Hana)? It's pronounced henna or jenna with an "h" if that makes more sense]. 
10. People who write you're as your. [Your: possession belonging to someone (your notebook). You're: you are.] Please pay attention in your grammar classes! It will save me some grief.
11. When the toilet roll is backwards. 
12. People who borrow stuff and don't give it back. Excuse me but I didn't let you have it. 
13. Finding hair in the sink, especially if it's not mine. WASH IT OFF.
14. Sites that start talking randomly and you can't make it stop because it's not a video on the page or anything like that, and you probably have like eight tabs open and you can't figure out which one's talking.
15. People who tickle me, or pinch my sides to try to tickle me. Seriously it's not funny. 
16. Chairs with uneven legs that wobble. How do you expect me to sit like that?
17.  People who leave toothpaste in the sink. 
18. When people put me on speaker and I didn't know. Tell me first! What if I don't want everyone in the room to hear what I'm saying?
19. People who open books so wide they make a crease line on the spine of the book. 
20. People who say "That's what she said,"after everything. Keep your mind out of the gutter and keep me out of there too, okay?

I Hate Spiders

I'm deathly afraid of spiders. If I see one inside I would probably leave the house. It's something I can't get over, really. I tried to get over it by looking at pictures of spiders, but I only broke out in goosebumps and something I like to call "mental hives". Thank god I don't break out in hives, but my arms and thighs get really itchy, but there's nothing there, and it's an all around terrible experience. I will avoid spiders, and I did for the longest time.

Yeah right, my mind troll sneered, your next blog post is about spiders. It needs a picture! Go on...type spiders in Google Images. Better yet, you want a BIG spider on your blog, search that. 

Worst five minutes of my life. 

My mind was all like:

PROBLEM?

Why am I posting this exactly? Well you'll find out soon enough. :)
