21 Signs You're Turning Into Your Mother

Growing older is inevitable. Turning into your mother may also be... unavoidable.

1. Couponing isn't a new hobby. It's more of a lifestyle.

Now your wallet, purse, and email is probably full of coupons.

2. There's no such thing as being "hip" with the times anymore.


You've probably been having to use Urban Dictionary a lot more often than you would like.

3. You bring a jacket to every occasion.

It's a cold and cruel world.

4. Daily vitamins have become... daily.

They don't taste as great as the gummy ones either.

5. Yawning begins at 7p.m.

6. You insist on friends texting or calling you when they get home... and enter panic mode when they don't.

7. Cleaning means a lot to you.

8. You love to give advice more than you truly should.

9. A cozy night at home sounds more pleasing than a girl's night out.

10. You know the answers to all of your friend's peculiar questions.

11. You're not afraid to buy and then return items.

Although, you still shop online...

12. You insist on feeding every person that steps into your apartment.

Who can resist your cooking anyway?

13. Magazine covers and celebrity news is full of names you're unfamiliar with.

I mean, we only care about J Lo, right?

14. You prepare and freeze meals ahead of time.

It makes you feel fairly powerful.

15. You love to organize anything you can get your hands on.

Life was meant to be color-coordinated.

16. Crockpots are some of the most blessed appliances on this planet.

In fact, you're probably thinking of trying a new recipe tonight.

17. Eating dinner after 6p.m. is considered criminal.

18. You shop online... every day.

19. "The look" is given to multiple semi-disrespectful people a day.

20. And, you watch and re-watch cooking shows.

21. Yet, you're proud of yourself for turning into the best woman you know!

"Friends" maybe didn’t have everything right or realistic all the time, but they did have enough episodes to create countless reaction GIFs and enough awesomeness to create, well, the legacy they did. Something else that is timeless, a little rough, but memorable? Living away from the comforts of home. Whether you have an apartment, a dorm, your first house, or some sort of residence that is not the house you grew up in, I’m sure you can relate to most of these!

There is nothing quite like family.

Family is kinda like that one ex that you always find yourself running back to (except without all the regret and the angsty breakup texts that come along with it).

No matter how long your class is, there's always time for the mind to wander. Much like taking a shower or trying to fall asleep, sitting in a classroom can be a time when you get some of your best ideas. But, more than likely, you're probably just trying to mentally cope with listening to a boring lecturer drone on and on. Perhaps some of the following Aristotle-esque thoughts have popped into your head during class.

Bob's Burgers
Adult Swim

Bob's Burgers is arguably one of the best and most well-written shows on tv today. That, and it's just plain hilarious. From Louise's crazy antics to Tina's deadpan self-confidence, whether they are planning ways to take over school or craft better burgers, the Belchers know how to have fun.

We're in college, none of us actually have anything together. In fact, not having anything together is one of our biggest stressors. However, there's a few little things that we do ever so often that actually make us feel like we have our lives together.

1. Making yourself dinner

And no this does not include ramen or Annie's Mac & Cheese. Making a decent meal for yourself is one of the most adult things you can do living on campus. And the food is much better than it would be at the dining hall.
