40 Thoughts All Girls Have While Packing For College

Ah, the dreaded experience of packing for school. We all love college, but the one thing we can't stand is the packing process. Not only is it stressful, but packing up your whole life and trying to cram everything into the trunk of your car is physically, mentally, and emotionally draining. Here are some thoughts we've all had during this grueling time of packing for college.

1. Okay, time to pack for school...where do I start?

2. Pinterest, help me pack.

3. Definitely should have started packing sooner than a week before I leave...

4. Seriously though, how am I supposed to pack my whole life into bags?

5. "Mom? Can you help me pack?"

6. I'm an adult. I can do this. If I can survive college, I can survive packing for it.

7. Okay, what's the best way to pack all this stuff?

8. Let's make a list of all the things I need to bring.

9. T-shirts, sweatpants, sweatshirts, shorts, jeans, sweaters, socks, shoes, dresses, pants, cardigans...that's just the clothes.

10. This is the one time when having too many clothes is a bad thing.

11. How would the Kardashians pack up all of their clothes? They must have more clothes than even I do.

12. Does this still fit me?

13. Will I really need this?

14. Of course, when I say I won't need it and I don't bring it, there will definitely be a time when I do need it, so I'll just bring it in case.

15. I guess I'll just buy whatever I forget when I get there.

16. How many t-shirts do I need? Am I going to wear them a lot?

17. Let's be real, the only thing I'm going to wear is t-shirts.

18. Don't forget the straightener!

19. When did I even buy this?

20. Oh, there's that shirt I thought I lost...

21. I have no idea when I'm going to wear this, but I'll just bring it.

22. 1 pair of leggings, 2 pairs of leggings.

23. Don't forget the extra contact lenses.

24. 3 pairs of leggings, 4 pairs of leggings.

25. I guess six pairs of socks are enough; I mean, I'll do my laundry once a week right?

26. And one more pair of leggings for good luck.

27. How do I fold clothes again?

28. I'm making improvement, narrowed it down to my favorite 20 sweaters.

29. Is my closet going to be big enough for all of my clothes?

30. Will I need a toothbrush holder? If so, can't forget that.

31. What about shower shoes? Is that still a thing?

32. Is my brain physically capable of remembering all of this?

33. Packing for college is honestly harder than college itself.

34. Is there a service that can just pack all my stuff up for me? I should invent that.

35. Don't forget my wallet, that would be bad.

36. Okay, so I have all of my clothes laid out. Now what?

37. Where do I put all my clothes? Suitcases? Garbage bags?

38. I think I've done my job, now it's time for Mom to put everything in it's place. She's basically a professional packer.

39. All right, clothes are packed. I feel accomplished.

40. Oh, I still need to buy my textbooks...

Thank You on wooden blocks

1. Thank you for being the one I can always count on to be honest.

A true friend will tell you if the shirt is ugly, or at least ask to borrow it and "accidentally" burn it.

2. Thank you for accepting me for who I am.

A best friend will love you regardless of the stale french fries you left on the floor of your car, or when you had lice in 8th grade and no one wanted to talk to you.

Do as I say, not as I do.

Your eyes widen in horror as you stare at your phone. Beads of sweat begin to saturate your palm as your fingers tremble in fear. The illuminated screen reads, "Missed Call: Mom."

Growing up with strict parents, you learn that a few things go unsaid. Manners are everything. Never talk back. Do as you're told without question. Most importantly, you develop a system and catch on to these quirks that strict parents have so that you can play their game and do what you want.

"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!
