10 Things Girls Say VS What they Actually Mean

As a fellow female, I can vouch for all of us when I point out that not everything we say should be taken exactly as it was spoken. Confusing, I know. In our mind--most likely somewhere in between scheduling our work plan, answering texts, and making phone calls, what we think can be lost in the translation of what actually comes out of our mouths. Maybe its a blessing, maybe its a curse.

1. "It's whatever"

What it really means: no, actually its not whatever. Its nowhere near whatever. She's probably got a much more definitive answer strategically planned out in her head, but due to the circumstances she will try not to be too high maintenance and play it safe with just that statement.

2. "I'm not really that hungry"

What it really means: Ask me if I want food in another 10 minutes, and I will most likely say that I am very hungry.

3. "I'm dying"

What it really means: something she saw, did, or witnessed is actually really funny--to the point where she's laughed so hard she may actually die.

4. "RT"

What it really means: I agree

5. "Yeah, he seems really nice"

What it really means: she's not really sure if she's interested in him, however she am not opposed to being around him.

6. "Do you think he's cute?"

What it really means: she's not sure if she has a weird taste in men, or if the guy she's looking at is actually attractive. *or* she's intoxicated and can't seem to make that judgement without the support of her fellow intoxicated friends.

7. "fine"

What it really means: nothings fine. Apologize until she begins to tell you what is actually bothering her. AKA get ready for an argument.

8. "Do I look fat in this?"

What it really means: She hasn't hit the gym in weeks, and has had pizza more than three times this week, but still wants to look cute.

9. "I'll be ready in 2 minutes"

What it really means: Do you mind waiting another 30 minutes, I haven't even done my hair yet.

10. "I have nothing to wear"

What it really means: she hasn't done laundry in weeks, she's searched through her closet several times, and has still come up empty-handed. Meaning, she is going to need to borrow something from someone ASAP.

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.
