15 Thoughts College Seniors Have

1. I love college, how am I supposed to leave?

While simultaneously thinking, get me the f out of here.

2. What the hell am I going to do with my life?

Is it too late for a Mrs. degree?

3. How do freshmen have so much energy?

Seriously, I don’t get it. I’m exhausted just thinking about the crop tops and bro tanks chugging Bernett’s.

4. Can we do an office bar crawl?

I volunteer as t-shirt designer!

5. But, I don’t want to move home… except I’m broke.

And I don’t have a job (yet) and I have debt and I’m about to be homeless.

6. How am I going to work 9-5 every single day?

Making my 12:40 pm was a stretch, especially after half-off Ricks.

7. Cs get degrees, right?

Surviving not thriving has become my life motto.

8. How am I supposed to be an adult if I still look and feel like I’m 19?

If my ID still gets questioned every time I go to the bar, I must not be ready or qualified to be an adult yet.

9. I can still week-day-darty with a job, right?

I can picture it now, strategizing and discussing the week’s agenda in-between rounds of flip cup!

10. What’s the attendance policy at work?

Will they take my doctor’s notes?

11. Are joggers acceptable work attire?

Fridays are jersey days, right? Can I still dress up for Halloween? Do I have to buy a blazer?

12. Can I still use my on-campus meal plan?

I think I have like ten swipes left, that should last me a while. I’ll just hide food in my briefcase instead of my backpack; I’ll be good to go!

13. How can I make bank while hardly doing any work?

It’s like work hard play hard, but without the work or the play because I get tired simply thinking about work. Maybe I’ll go on the Bachelor and become an Instagram model! Oh, what a life.

14. Can I just stay at college?

Now that I think about it, the alternate reality of college sounds so much better than the reality of being an adult who isn’t in college.

15. Now that I think about it, my parent’s basement doesn’t sound too bad.

It’s mostly warm, it doesn’t smell too bad, and I’ll get to share a room with the washer and dryer so I’ll always have clean clothes!

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?

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. 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.
