10 Signs You Grew Up During the 2000s

1. You were obsessed with anything Juicy Couture. What a shame I now sleep in my $150 tracksuit.

2. You and your friends sat in front of a Mac for hours taking thousands of awesome pictures in Photo Booth.

3. All of your clothes had to be Aeropostale, American Eagle, or the best, Abercrombie. The more logos, the better.

The idea here was to look exactly the same as all of your friends.

4. Your hair straightener was your most prized possession.

5. iMessage was not a word in your vocabulary because you used BBM 24/7 (insert dancing hands emoji).

6. AIM statuses were filled with song lyrics, best friend's initials and tons of dramatic quotes. And don't forget the amazing icon you had that changed color with a great quote.

.

Away: Don't IM me ... bad mood ugh, hit the cell xo

7. You never left the house during winter without your North Face and Uggs.

Squad? More like clones...

8. Sweet Sixteens were basically the Oscars of high school.

I have to admit, I still think this is a Class A picture.

9. You probably hung out at a park of some sort and were asked to leave, every time. *ugh*

Fun times ...

10. Let's never forget the time mirror pics were acceptable.

OK, maybe we can forget this one ...

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?

So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.
