There are two types of people in the world: the coordinated, and the uncoordinated. Here are 15 that all us clumsy folks know all too well.

Tripping over your own feet

Because most people learn how to walk before the age of 2…but we still struggle.

Not quite clearing a doorway

Your shoulder has more than grazed a doorframe too many times.

Accidentally causing a scene in public

Because sometimes we spill or break something when a bunch of people are around

Spilling a drink all down the front of you

“Do you have a hole in your chin?” HA HA

Tripping both up and down the stairs

Whether it be up or down, all clumsies have had many terrifying experiences with stairs.

One too many broken dishes

This is pretty self-explanatory. Just call me butter-fingers.

Shirts with food stains

Again with the eating and drinking thing…it’s not always as easy as we plan on it being.

Severely stubbed toes

This goes hand-in-hand with the bruised shoulders

Many unidentified bruises

Similar to the door and stubbed toes, you can’t help but occasionally fall down or run into things.

Small reactions to mishaps

Whereas normal people may get upset over a spilled drink or a public mishap, we tend to shrug it off as just another daily occurrence.

Beat up phones

Because sometimes even with a case, your phone can see some wear and tear when dropped a million times.

Scuffed shoes

It’s hard to have nice things when you are likely to screw them up by tripping over your own feet.

Lacking embarrassment when others experience your clumsiness

We spend so little time worrying what others think, because after all, those who love us know our faults.

I think the hardest thing about going away to college is figuring out how to become an adult. Leaving a household where your parents took care of literally everything (thanks, Mom!) and suddenly becoming your own boss is overwhelming. I feel like I'm doing a pretty good job of being a grown-up, but once in awhile I do something that really makes me feel like I'm #adulting. Twenty-somethings know what I'm talking about.

I went to a small high school, like 120-people-in-my-graduating-class small. It definitely had some good and some bad, and if you also went to a small high school, I’m sure you’ll relate to the things that I went through.

1. If something happens, everyone knows about it

Who hooked up with whom at the party? Yeah, heard about that an hour after it happened. You failed a test? Sorry, saw on Twitter last period. Facebook fight or, God forbid, real fight? It was on half the class’ Snapchat story half an hour ago. No matter what you do, someone will know about it.

Chandler Bing

I'm assuming that we've all heard of the hit 90's TV series, Friends, right? Who hasn't? Admittedly, I had pretty low expectations when I first started binge watching the show on Netflix, but I quickly became addicted.

Without a doubt, Chandler Bing is the most relatable character, and there isn't an episode where I don't find myself thinking, Yup, Iam definitely the Chandler of my friend group.

Working with the public can be a job, in and of itself. Some people are just plain rude for no reason. But regardless of how your day is going, always having to be in the best of moods, or at least act like it... right?

1. When a customer wants to return a product, hands you the receipt, where is printed "ALL SALES ARE FINAL" in all caps.

2. Just because you might be having a bad day, and you're in a crappy mood, doesn't make it okay for you to yell at me or be rude to me. I'm a person with feelings, just like you.

3. People refusing to be put on hold when a customer is standing right in front of you. Oh, how I wish I could just hang up on you!
