Do you ever just look at people when you are on a long bus or car ride and wonder how they are sleeping like that? Well I don’t have the answers, but it is rather entertaining to see. It amazes me how people fall asleep in some positions, but hey, if you can sleep right now, go for it.

1. Sitting straight up

When you decide to rest your eyes for just a minute and end up falling asleep in that exact position.

2. Knees smashed to the seat in front

When there is not enough space for you to stretch out but you have reached the point where sitting straight up is no longer an option.

3. Feet on the seat

The next step in stretching out, but you had better hope the person in front of you doesn’t mind some feet.

4. Laying across laps

If the person next to you isn’t your friend, they are now.

5. The sprawl

When you occupy as much space as possible, sprawling all limbs in different directions with no hesitations.

6. Upside down


Because sitting normally just isn’t any fun.

7. The window lean

Head rattling against the window so you squish a jacket in between.

8. Stealing all of the seats

Whether someone was going to sit next to you or not, they missed their chance (and the next seat over from that one too).

9. The not-so-reclined recliner

When you attempt to use the “recliner” feature of the seat that only moves two inches.

10. Head leaning into the seat in front of you


When you just can’t hold your own head up anymore.

11. Curled into a ball

Do you ever really grow out of the fetal position?

However you like sleeping on a long trip, just know that someone will see you, and probably laugh.

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.
