5. Do your laundry once a week.

6. Make a schedule (following it is optional).

7. Shop only when you need something.

8. Tell people you love them more often.

9. Read a book for fun (children’s books count).

10. Don’t consciously wait to text someone back.

11. Don’t be the drunkest one at the party.

12. Dance more.

16. Order a tall instead of a grande.

17. Make phone calls more often.

18. Only skip your big lectures.

24. Avoid people wearing cargo shorts.

25. Don’t forget your mom’s birthday again.

26. Watch a bunch of food videos, but don’t actually cook.

27. Improve your beer pong skills.

28. Don’t make your group project partners do all of the work (just most).

18 Things I Want To Do Now That I'm 18

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.
