1. "How do I cook this?"

2. "How long does it take until this expires?"

At home you would usually be the one to keep track of what's good and what's bad.


3. "How do I get this stain out?"

I need this shirt to wear tomorrow, but it has a really noticeable stain.


4. "I need a pedicure so bad."

My toes need some real work done, but I don't want to pay for it. I hope you picked up on that.

5. Can you venmo me money?

Well...

6. "Can you facetime me, but just so I can see the dog?"

I really want to see his cute face.

7. "What did you do today?"

I'm bored and feel out of the loop. Tell me all about what you did at home.

8. "This professor makes me want to fling myself off a building. I might just drop out."

Sometimes I really don't get what is going through my professors' minds.

9. "Can we go on vacation?"

Yeah, I can't "adult" anymore. I need a break.

10. "Hey. I'm bored in class."

Please distract me even though I really probably should be paying attention.

11. "You better have bagels, pizza and pasta ready for me when I come home."

I miss all the good food spots from at home, and I miss having your home cooked meals every night.

12. "What should I take if I have a cough?"

Motrin? Advil? Tylenol? Aleve? All 4?

13. "Can you order this on Amazon Prime for me so I don't have to pay for it?"

I know I could probably find it at a store nearby, but I would really rather not get out of bed if it isn't necessary and I also don't want to spend my own money on it.

14. "I didn't eat today because the food makes me want to vomit, but I'm also too broke to buy food from somewhere else."

It's like eating garbage at this point.

15. "Can you send me a care package?"

Getting mail is exciting and my candy stash is running low.

16. "I don't even want anything for Christmas. I just need money."

Like previously mentioned, my wallet is empty.

17. "What should I pack?"

Everything I've needed has been in my dorm with me for months, and I have no idea what I will and won't need when I leave.

18. "How do I refill my prescription?"

I have no idea how to "adult."

19. "I'm never taking an early class ever again."

If I get stuck with another early class next semester, be prepared for all the complaints.

20. "I hate boys. Make me feel better."

Enough said.

21. "I love you and can't wait to see you!"

As we all have learned, people tend to take advantage of us in one way or another. I am sure we all read this short story when we were younger and it follows that same principle:
