Many can agree that moving may actually be one of the worst things.

Not only does it take up all your time, but it drains every drop of energy left in you.

These 10 stages of moving should express just about every emotion you are feeling.

Stage 1: I'm so excited to have my own place!

The thought of being able to put my own touches on everything makes me so excited!

Stage 2: Wow I have a lot more stuff to move than I thought.

The thought of having to move this all in my apartment, scares me.

Stage 3. Will all of this even fit in my car?

I don't know.. but I'm sure as heck gonna make it fit.

Stage 4. Okay, I may not be able to see in my rear view mirror, but at least it's in my car!

Keeping my fingers crossed I won't get in a car accident..

Stage 5. *almost gets in car accident*

I'm still alive, but I'm barely breathing.

Stage 6. *arrives at new apartment*

EVERYONE, CARRY AS MUCH AS YOU CAN!

Stage 7. *realizes your apartment is on the top floor and there is no elevator*

Oh my god, I'm going to die.

Stage 8. *comes back to the car to grab more things*

I haven't even made a dent in unloading my car..

Stage 9. Okay.. how many more trips up and down these stairs?

These stairs are absolute DEATH.

Stage 10. SOMEBODY HELP.

At this rate, moving is gonna take me all day and night.

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?

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. 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.
