Though it new to West Virginia, Uber has been sweeping the nation as the hottest new trend in transportation since 2009. The local, and virtual cab ride is probably the one of the safest options to get you from point A to point B while on campus, AM or PM (... but mostly PM). Ever Uber excursion is one to remember, from the driver to the ETA at your designated drop off destination.

Here are 15 thoughts you have while riding Uber. For those of you who've caught an Uber: you'll totally be able to relate, and for those who haven't: now you'll know what to expect!

1. How much am I willing to spend?

Ok, I'm a broke college kid who can definitely NOT afford UberBlack. I envy the person who can. But I'm perfectly fine settling for uberX.

2. Who's coming with me?!

We can literally have our own version of Carpool Karaoke. Except we're not famous, but its whatevs.

3. Everyone better have the app downloaded and be ready to split the tab.

Like I said, I'm a poor college kid.

4. Ok, so, the Uber said it would be here in 5 minutes 10 minutes ago.

I've got places to be and people to see.

5. I wonder if they've got an aux cord.

6. If they want a 5 star rating they better hand it over.


Because let's face it, my taste in music is the irl equivalent of the fire emoji.

7. I hope they have snacks.


I might get hungry on this 6-minute car ride.

8. I wonder how much extra it is to go thru Taco Bell?

9. He is probably so annoyed with my friends and I.

Oops?

10. I'll give him a 5-star rating for his troubles.

11. OMG do I know him? I think I had class with him?

12. Should I tell him I know him? Or is that too weird? Because he definitely doesn't recognize me.

This is the hardest decision I've made since deciding between pizza and tacos for dinner.

13. Too late, we're here.

14. Should I tip him?

My number counts as a tip, right? Oh wait, he already has that...

15. I could totally be an Uber driver.

Except I wouldn't have snacks and I'd be late of the time.

So remember, if you lost your student ID and need to make it to class within the next 20 min... just call an Uber. It's perfect when it comes to not needing to have cash, and being directly dropped off at your location. Like, the college version of a soccer mom, dare I say?

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.
