10 Signs You Are A Perpetually Late Person
Devil Wears Prada

"Not punctual" has such a horrible ring to it. Us late people are always fashionably late. We are not an inconvenience, we like to keep you in anticipation for our arrival. We are sorry if we annoy you sometimes with our delayed arrival to places. It's not that our commitment isn't important to me, I just get easily sidetracked.

1. You text your friends "on my way!" when you are most definitely not on your way.

I'm sorry! I just really wanted to look good when I saw you.

2. You don't need to go to the gym because you are always running everywhere.

While I was eating that Cinnabon that I didn't have time to eat, I can now run it off on the run to the event I'm about to be late to.

3. You have to set multiple alarms in the morning to make sure you don't turn them off in your sleep.



I waste time even in an unconscious state....

4. You are a master at coming up with excuses.



Sometimes its my fault...sometimes its not.

5. You are used to the judging looks you get from your friends.



Sorry guys! Thanks for loving me anyways.

6. You are constantly in a stressed state.


And you know that you could easily change this by, you know, just paying better attention to the time. But, that doesn't happen.

7. Your entire life your mom has been telling you to hurry up.


No wonder she had to nag me so much....

8. For someone who is always late, other people's lateness annoys you.

I know its hypocritical, but I was five minutes late, you were ten minutes late. I win.

9. You worry about yourself on the daily and how this horrible trait is going to affect your future.


I need to change. Fast.

10. And all of us late people live by this motto:



Julie Andrews said it best in the Princess Diaries. Thank you for giving me a reason to accept my greatest flaw.

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?
