10  People to Avoid in Your 20's

You're in your roaring 20's and life is all about finding yourself and having a good time. You're just learning to navigate your way through your adult life through work, bills, and all of the social outings you may experience. Your 20's are the time to finally put on your big girl panties and grow the heck up, yet, there are those who are still stuck in their high school phases.

Here are 10 people to avoid in your 20's.

1. The girl who lives for drama

I'm not going to lie, listening to gossip once in awhile is fun. You can get super into a conversation but it's definitely something that shouldn't have survived past middle school. Yet, there are those girls who live for drama and it's as if they wait to become offended. Bringing up month old drama? Come on, girl. Next.

2. The parasite

We all have that one friend who conveniently never has money. I mean, I don't mind paying for someone's food, but if you ask ME to hang out and then it turns out you don't have money, what're you doing?

3. The pessimist

Whenever something happens, you already know that the pessimist will be there to make sure everyone knows just how bad something is. Life is way too short to be full of negativity 24/7. If you hang out with negative people, it tends to rub off on you and affect you too.

4. The complainer

Complaining once in awhile is totally fine. You're stressed and annoyed, and need to relieve pent up emotions. But complaining all day, every day, for dumb stuff like how you broke a nail? NOPE.

5. The guy who only texts you after midnight

When you're up at 1 am binge watching RuPaul's Drag Race and get that "Hey (:" text. Not today, boo. Not today.

6. The users

That person who conveniently only hits you up when they need something from you. Drop them.

7. The victim

Nothing can go wrong in the victim's life without them spiraling everything so the hurt falls on them. Even after they're the one's who did wrong, they try to act like they're the hurt ones.

8. The girl who claims she doesn't judge but actually does

"I don't judge but..." Sure you don't.

9. The person who always brags about high school accomplishments

High school was either the worst or best time of your life and it's okay to reflect on it. But if you're 24 years old and still talking about that A+ you got in Freshman Algebra... well, I'm not entirely sure what you're doing.

10. The adult baby

So unless you are into the adult baby fetish, there is no reason for you to expect people to cater to your every need and take care of you. You're an adult, take care of yourself for goodness sake.

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?
