If this doesn't get you instantly banned from next year’s family Christmas dinner, I don't know what will. Here are 13 things you do in college your mom probably shouldn't know about.

1. Getting a fake ID.

2. Asking for gas/grocery money and spending it on booze.

3. Saying you’re going to come home one weekend but deciding to go to the bars instead.

4. Calling her at work to ask a dumb question about how long to put something in the oven for.

5. Asking for her advice or opinion on something and then being screwed over for not taking it.

6. Starting to tell your mom a typical college story, but then realizing what you did was illegal, so you have to abort mission.

7. Asking for money for textbooks and never opening them.

8. Picking a major that spends a million dollars per semester on supplies.

9. Complaining about your roommate. Then becoming friends again. Then hating them again. Then forgiving them.

10. Complaining about failing an exam because the professor was an ass, when really you just never showed up to class.

11. Taking homemade leftovers back to school and “forgetting” to give the tupperware/pots/pans back.

12. Moving to a different apartment each school year and asking her to help you move/store your things.

13. Not responding to her texts because you’re too trashed to make any sense.

Consider this my apology, mom.

P.S. I truly am sorry for stealing your Tupperware.

And from that friendship, you may even find yourself lucky enough to have a few more friends, thus forming a group. Here are just a few signs that prove your current friend group is the ultimate friend group.

When it comes to television, there’s very few sets of on-screen siblings that a lot of us can relate to. Only those who have grown up with siblings knows what it feels like to fight, prank, and love a sibling. Ross and Monica Geller were definitely overbearing and overshared some things through the series of "Friends," but they captured perfectly what real siblings feel in real life. Some of their antics were funny, some were a little weird but all of them are completely relatable to brothers and sisters everywhere.

College is a great place to meet people, especially through Greek life. If you look closely at sororities, you'll quickly see there are many different types of girls you will meet.

1. The Legacy.

Her sister was a member, her mom was a member, all of her aunts were members, and her grandma was a member. She has been waiting her whole life to wear these letters and cried hysterically on bid day. Although she can act entitled at times, you can bet she is one of the most enthusiastic sisters.
