Things You Do To Make Believe You Have Your Life Together

We all like to believe we're real life adults, but lets face it, we still rely on our mothers to make our doctors appointments.

Things You Do To Make Believe You Have Your Life Together

It's no secret, adulting is hard, but pretending to be an adult is a breeze! You do it on a daily basis effortlessly. So well, in fact, that some people think you actually have your life together.

Let's see here, so...

You own multiple pairs of workout pants and sports bras

Except they’re all from Victoria’s Secret and you only own them because they’re cute, not because you ever actually work out in them

You carry a planner with you

But everything you write in it is either a party or bottomless mimosas for Sunday brunch

You plan a bunch of productive activities to do throughout the day

And that list quickly turns into lunch, nap, post-lunch snack, pre-dinner snack, nap, dinner, bar

You do the dishes

Only because there are none left in the cabinet and paper plates cost money


You organized your desk space

But have never actually sat at it and done any work

You donate your old clothes to Good Will

Only because Plato’s Closet didn’t take them and you’re too lazy to post them all on resale apps


You come up with unique and surprisingly tasty recipes

Because nothing in your cabinet is really supposed to be combined together but you’re not scared of thinking outside the box if it saves a trip to the grocery store

You hang all of your clothes in the closet instead of throwing them on the floor

Because they can’t be wrinkly when you re-wear them for the 4th time without washing them

You own plants

Even though they’re all succulents that don’t require any attention to stay alive

You buy produce often

but don’t eat it fast enough because fast food somehow always finds its way in

You make it to all of your important appointments on time

hair, nails, brows…priorities.

You’re easy to get in contact with

because your iPhone doesn’t leave your hand

You attend a Yoga class

Once a month so that you can justify all of your "good vibes" decor

If I have learned one thing in my lifetime, it is that friends are a privilege. No one is required to give you their company and yet there is some sort of shared connection that keeps you together. 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.

Every kid in college and/or high school dreams of summer the moment they walk through the door on the first day back in September.

The winter has been lagging, the days are short and dark, and no one is quite themselves due to lack of energy and sunlight. Let's face it: life is ten times better in the summertime.
