We have all felt this way...

10 Things Every College Student Understands

1. Crawling out of your twin XL bed that usually feels like a rock, but now feels like a soft, puffy cloud in order to make your 8 am that could put you back to sleep in the first five minutes.


2. Walking by that one girl who is dressed like she's on her way to a Grade A interview and you're walking, regretting not bringing your blanket with you to complete your Monday morning outfit.


3. Running out of socks, so you do a load of wash only to pull out six of the ten socks you put in.


4. Scoping out the cafeteria in the hopes that something other than the salad bar looks edible.


5. Waking up to seven emails from the University, none of which includes a cancellation of your classes. Just wanted to remind you to pay for this, that, or the other thing.


6. Procrastinating a five page essay that needs to be submitted by midnight in order to finish those last two episodes of the series you have been binge- watching all week.


7. That one professor who asks questions after every point in the slide and expects a different student to answer each time. Don't worry, you can count on the kid sitting front and center, taking notes like his or her life depends on it.


8. Spending ten hours straight in the library studying just to go back to your dorm room and pull an all nighter in the hopes of pulling a C, at best, on the final tomorrow.


9. Driving the continuous loop, trying to find a parking spot down a one way road, when someone comes flying down the one way, the WRONG way, as they continue to take the spot you wanted.

10. Being eternally grateful for the friends you made at college who have gotten you through all your worst days, making them the best.

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.
