I'd Rather Hang Out With My Parents Instead Of Partying

Yes I hangout with my parents instead of partying, and yes I actually enjoy it.

I'd Rather Hang Out With My Parents Instead Of Partying
Renata Lima

Crazy right? A 20 year old girl that would actually rather spend time with her parents then go out and party or spend her time with her friends, mind blowing.

It's not that I don't like hanging out with my friends because I do, but my friends and I all enjoy very different things. Personally my idea of a good time is sitting on the couch with some food and watching a very good, drama filled movie. My friends are also all away at college and life gets lonely when there's only a few of your friends left in town.

Personally, my parents are a hoot (the use of the word really emphasizes that I do hang out with my parents a lot). On Fridays, my parents and I sit at the dinner table and just talk about all the stuff that happened during that week. We tell jokes, and we laugh until we cry. If it was a rough week we just sit and talk about how we could've handle things better. My dad frankly is the funniest man I know. My friends often times come over just to see him, and my mom finds my dad really obnoxious 90% of the time even though she really loves him.

I personally have the most fun when I'm with my parents. We go to concerts together, we go to dinner together almost every weekend, we go to the mall, we do everything you do with your friends together, and yes that includes getting drunk together too. Honestly. when I don't do these things with them I really do miss them. Now I know what you're wondering, why do you spend so much time with you 50 year old parents, you can find people your own age that are like them, that's true. I do know people like them and I do enjoy their company, but the truth is my parents aren't going to live forever. They're still young and healthy, and I pretty sure they're going to live to embarrass me until they're 120 but one day they won't be around or maybe one day I won't live close enough to them to see them all the time so I'll miss all the time I wasted trying to not spend time with them.

Yes just like you sometimes I don't want to be around my parents, and just like you sometimes they annoy me with their excessive rules that frankly are border line insane. Yes, sometimes I want to go buckwild and just be a 20 year old girl but most of the time I'm okay with my parents being my best friends and spending my whole weekend with them. But don't tell them that because it'll go to their heads.

In honor of Mother’s Day, I have been thinking of all the things my mom does for my family and me. Although I couldn’t write nearly all of them, here are a few things that moms do for us.

They find that shirt that’s right in front of you, but just you can’t seem to find.

Take the time to thank that one friend in your life you will never let go of.

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.

Everybody gets sick once in a while, but getting sick while in college is the absolute worst. You're away from home and your mom who can take care of you and all you really want to do is just be in your own bed. You feel like you will have never-ending classwork to catch up on if you miss class, so you end up going sick and then it just takes longer to get better. Being sick in college is really tough and definitely not a fun experience. Here are the 15 stages that everyone ends up going through when they are sick at college.

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!
