WOOHOO LETS GO! RALLY!
COME ON! SO STOKED FOR THIS NIGHT GUYS!
WAIT CAN YOU PLAY THAT NEW EDM SONG ONE MORE TIME?
OKAY FIVE MINUTES THEN WE HAVE TO GO.
These phrases, or very close variants of them probably started echoing through your apartment at about 10p.m. Getting pumped up for the night while songs like “IDFWU” by Big Sean or "Kanye" by The Chainsmokers are probably playing not-so-faintly in the background. The scene is set with thirteen of your closest friends and chatter of what the night ahead holds. Your mind is full of all the possible Instagram's the night could hold, and how fun your snap story is about to look. In the middle of all this chaos, you probably aren’t thinking about the inevitable rush of thoughts that will be running through your head in a short 12 hours or less.
1. “Water. Need it now. Kitchen is so far. Okay. I’ll drink out of the sink.”
2. “Why the hell do I have 74 Instagram notifications? What did I post last night? Do I even want to check? My mom follows me. Sh*t.”
3. “Who is ‘Sam from Elevaturrrrr’ and why were we texting until 2 a.m.? If I delete the messages they never happened, right? Right.”
4. “Ow. Owwww!! Why is my foot throbbing!?”
5. “I’ll check my bank statement. Actually never mind. All it told me is I went to Taco Bell and In N Out within five minutes of each other and I’m $20 poorer than I thought I was.”
6. “Why did I tweet that person I’ve hated since freshman year ‘omggzzz ily so much funnnn w you tonight xox’?!?!”
7. “Back to number four. I remember now. I played ‘Parkour’ by myself last night on the way home. Okay? Okay.”
8. “Sh*t. Sh*t. Sh*t. Where are all my belongings? Wallet? Keys? Favorite chapstick?”
9. “I should eat something. Eggs sound good. Wait not really. Actually I’m gonna puke.”
10. “I’m never going out again. Ever. Tonight I’m gonna stay in and watch movies, light candles, and post an Instagram of my feet in the bath to make up for whatever that post was last night. It’s gonna be great.”
Whether its that 4 a.m. “oh my gosh I am so thankful I’m in my own bed right now” or that 12 p.m. “did I really just sleep for over 10 hours” moment… You eventually have to wake up after a night of going out. Regardless of whether your moment is in the wee hours of the morning, or ebbing on the edge of afternoon, there are 10 thoughts that undoubtedly run through all of your heads.
