Hanger.

In case you're not familiar with the term, hanger = (hunger + anger).

Me and the love of my life.

It's no secret that when I get extremely hungry, I go insane or something. Once Mahy, Dana and I were out and I said I was hungry. Mahi was like "Oh do you see how she acts when she gets hungry?!" And Dana glared and said "Oh my God, yes!". I thought my hanger wasn't an old trait, but apparently not. But the fact that an old friend talks like that with a new one is just frustrating. 

I mean, when my hanger episode ends, and I look back at what I've said and did, I thank the burger I'm holding in my hand for saving humanity from my temporary stupidity.

The thing is, I have levels of hunger. I would've loved to make a diagram for you but I don't have much time. I love diagrams by the way. My hunger rises gradually from "It'd be good if I could eat now and if I don't it's fine too" to "My stomach is torturing me and I need FOOD NOW ARRHHH" (I don't know if screaming is written in English that way but mine is mostly عااااااا in Arabic).

I mean, for example, if I'm waiting in a line (I hate waiting in lines) on a regular day, I'd be pissed but it's fine. If I'm hangry, then there's a chance I'll yell at the next person that coughs next to me. I'm joking. Or not, I don't remember much what happens when I'm hangry. 

Some times, things pile up: college stress, bills, a stupid fight with a friend, Salma or Alaa, it's winter, the bakery has no more chocolate cakes and I broke my nail. All of this is really manageable for me on regular days. It takes some basic thinking, planing and communication to solve them. But when I'm hangry, my hidden drama queen side rises. 

"How dare them not have chocolate cake? I do not care if it's late and they were closing but why??", 

"My nail is broken again, I will look terrible after cutting it. Will it grow again?" and

 "I'm not wrong, you ARE"..

Rozza suggested that I'd take deep breaths when I'm hangry to calm down and think rationally. I will try that. But for now, dearly beloved, just feed me! And thank you for tolerating me when I'm hungry. You're amazing.

Does anyone have any funny (or crazy..?!)  hanger stories?
