Because, apparently, we can't ignore reality forever.

8 Reactions To Graduation Posts
Her.ie

Graduation season is upon us once again, and even though it feels like just yesterday that I was saying goodbye to high school, every time I open my Facebook or Instagram, I'm overwhelmed with graduation posts. Sappy captions, graduation photos, and perfectly detailed plans for the future clutter up my internet browser history and, as a sophomore with no clue what I'm doing, it makes me feel new levels of stressed out.

1. "When did I become old enough to have friends that are real adults?"

As far as I remember, I'm still 12, right?

2. "What am I going to do with my major?"

Sure, it's my passion and I can't imagine doing anything else -- but I also don't want to be homeless/starving.

3. "Does anyone else feel as terrified about their future as I do?"

So are we all just going to keep acting like we're cool with all this responsibility? Am I the only one who still isn't completely sure how to boil water?

4. "What if all my friends move away and I'm left alone?"

Why can't we just keep living five minutes away from each other forever?

5. "Does this mean that people my age are going to start getting married and having children soon?"

The realization that wedding invitations will soon be filling up my life/fridge door seems too overwhelming to be reality.

6. "Why does everyone keep asking me what I'm doing after graduation?"

I still have two full years! Can I live?!

7. "But really...what am I going to do after graduation?"

I've already done the college application process once, but finding a job feels just as daunting.

8. "Why is everyone so much more put together than I am?"

But deep down, you know that everyone feels just as unsure as you do.

We all have a person, and when that person makes some new friends, we tend to forget all the great things that can come out of it. Never forget how special they are to you and why you are best friends.

Toilet Troubles

"So, usually I would never go on a Tinder date but when you are out with girlfriends and a hot Bosnian guy says he wants to hang with you and his friends, you oblige. We head to their apartment and when I realized I may pee my pants if I don't find a bathroom soon. I ask for the bathroom and a friend of my tinder date shows me to it and said in all seriousness that I was not allowed to flush the toilet under ANY circumstances. Having a few drinks--or five--I relieved myself to, nevertheless, flush the toilet. Within seconds, his bathroom was flooded and towels were laid out everywhere to catch the toilet water. To say the least, we were not invited back"
