13 'Basic' Things A Girl Should Basically Never Be Ashamed Of Doing

Girls who are called "basic" usually follow the trend. I'm not really sure why there needs to be that label, but there is. Things that are considered "basic" are really just average, everyday things people do or wear.

This list could go on and on, but here are 13 things that are known to be "basic" but really don't need to be.

1. Drinking Starbucks

If you like Starbucks and you like their tumblers and you like their fancy coffees, teas, and food, then go ahead and treat yo self. It's literally food.

2. Taking beach pictures

If you want to remember your time at the beach when also feeling confident and beautiful, then by all means, snap that picture and post it.

3. Wearing Uggs

They are warm and comfortable. And expensive. So wear them.

4. Black leggings

Comfortable and go with every single outfit. Who wouldn't want to rock a pair of these?

5. iPhones

It's a phone... A good phone that lots and lots of people have. Pick the colors you want and don't be ashamed of having one.

6. Dancing

Dance however you may like!

7. Sororities

Find your girl gang and have lots of fun!

8. Gym pictures

People who judge those most likely do not even step foot in a gym.

9. Snapchat filters

They're fun to play around with.

10. Candid pictures

Always turn out the best and it's the best way to capture a moment with your friend.

11. Aesthetically pleasing social media 

Props to you if you can do this, because it's super hard but looks super cool

12. Stickers on a laptop

Express yourself

13. Have your nails painted

It's a relaxing thing to go get done, and your hand just looks so much prettier afterward.

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?

Happy Birthday Cake

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.
