You spent the majority of your childhood envisioning a future that was filled with expensive, castle-like houses, Prince Charming, and no worries, but now that you've almost reached adulthood, it's time to face the facts. Adulthood is hard. It's filled with taxes, loans, doctor's appointments, chores, and several prince not-so-charmings, and you've been lucky enough that you haven't had to completely face adulting...yet.

Unfortunately, though, adulting is something we're all going to be forced to do one day. But while we're in college, we can always avoid it for just a little bit longer by following a few simple rules.

1. Sleep as much as you can.

Sure, you have a huge pile of homework, exams to study for and a job you should be going to, but you can never go wrong with a good nap.

2. Pretend to be a kid again.

Go on an adventure, get a coloring book, watch every Disney princess movie, or even spend your day day-dreaming about how fun and easy being an adult will be, anything to keep you from forgetting about your lack of money and your terrible love life.

3. Stay in college as long as you can.

College may not be easy but it will always be better than being a full-fledged adult. So what's staying in college for a few extra years going to do? There's always that one kid who stays in school until their mid-30s anyways.

4. Stay out as late as possible.

Even if it's a weekday and you have a 7:45 a.m. class or an early shift in the morning, your 20s are meant for fun, so who cares if you have work or class? It's not like you know what you're doing in life in the first place.

5. Ask mom to make your doctor's appointments.

Or just not go. Who needs clean teeth anyway?

6. Avoid checking your bank account.

Only having a part-time job and spending all of your money on online shopping takes a toll on your bank account, but if you don't check it, then it's basically like you haven't spent a penny. Right?

7. Learn to survive off of Ramen noodles.

Cooking is overrated, and a little difficult at times, plus you don't have the money to afford a nice meal. So Ramen noodles and Easy Mac it is.

8. Waste as much time as possible.

Youtube, Netflix, sleep, anything to keep you mind preoccupied and stress-free. Why adult when you can just waste your time in front of the TV?

9. Avoid cleaning.

Yeah the trash is overflowing, your room needs to be vacuumed and you've been wearing the same clothes for days now, but why spend your limited time cleaning when it's just going to get dirty again? Plus laundry is free at home.

10. Always ask Mom

Your mom has been an adult for a while now and has learned how to do everything, so when you don't have the money to pay for something, or you need to make an appointment, or you don't know how to use the dishwasher, she'll always have the answer.
