An Introvert's Big Night In

Everyone likes to have a cozy night in every now and then. It feels nice to just kick back and relax after a long week. However, an introvert NEEDS these nights to thrive and function as a human being. As a fellow introvert myself, I decided to walk you through a day in the life of an anti-social person:

  1. Unwind
  2. Curl up on the couch
  3. Watch a Disney movie
  4. Or musical
  5. Or a new Netflix series
  6. Make your favorite home-cooked meal for dinner
  7. or bake cookies
  8. or a cake…
  9. Basically make yourself anything edible
  10. spend some time on your arts and crafts
  11. Clean your house
  12. Do your laundry
  13. Get too lazy to fold your laundry
  14. (If you’re of age) pop open your favorite bottle of wine
  15. Read a book
  16. Read another book
  17. Basically read your entire “To Read” list
  18. Spend countless hours on Pinterest
  19. Plan your wedding via Pinterest ideas
  20. Realize you don’t have a significant other
  21. Cry because you have no significant other
  22. Eat your feelings
  23. Feel better after eating your feelings
  24. Watch another Disney movie
  25. Sing along to said Disney movie
  26. Realize you are the next Disney Princess
  27. Sing to your dog so you can see if your voice has secret animal summoning powers
  28. Cry when your dog doesn’t enjoy your singing voice and runs away
  29. Spend time searching the Internet
  30. Watch the Spanish channel and see how much you understand
  31. Teach yourself a new life skill like a musical instrument
  32. or American Sign Language
  33. See what qualifications you need to be the next president of the United States
  34. Forgive your dog and snuggle up with him
  35. Give him a bath
  36. Brush his fur
  37. Clip his nails
  38. Make the entire night dedicated to your dog’s spa experience
  39. Check all of your social media
  40. See political opinions on Facebook from your Aunt Georgia
  41. Unfriend Aunt Georgia
  42. Scroll your Twitter timeline for three hours
  43. Scroll through your own tweets
  44. Laugh at your own jokes
  45. Go through your liked tweets
  46. Stalk your celebrity crush
  47. Imagine your life being married to your celebrity crush
  48. Continue wedding planning on Pinterest
  49. Check your email and pretend to have your life together for a few minutes
  50. Respond to one email
  51. Reward yourself by eating a gallon of ice cream
  52. Remembering you’ll have to be social if you go get more ice cream, so you decide against it
  53. Add things to your Amazon Wish List
  54. Remember you got paid today
  55. Spend your entire paycheck purchasing your Amazon Wish List
  56. Get ahead on homework
  57. Give up after two minutes of reading
  58. Get another snack
  59. Wait for your Amazon packages to arrive
  60. Write a song using the keyboard app on your phone
  61. Perform it live for your dog (because you know he loves your singing)
  62. Look at the clock
  63. See it’s 3:45
  64. Contemplate going to bed
  65. Decide to go to bed
  66. Curl up
  67. Scroll social media on your phone for another two hours
  68. Try to sleep
  69. Stay up thinking about how you don’t want to be social with others in the morning
  70. Fall asleep
  71. Repeat

It's okay to veg out. Let an introvert know you understand!!

18 Things I Want To Do Now That I'm 18

I'm technically an adult, so I'm legally required to live a little, right?

Happy Birthday Cake

For the entirety of my high school career, I was always seen as the goody-two-shoes. I never got in trouble with a teacher, I kept stellar grades, and when I wasn't doing extracurricular activities, I was at home studying. Even when I did go out, it was usually with a bunch of fellow band geeks. The night would end before 11:00 PM and the only controversial activity would be a fight based on who unfairly won a round of Apples-to-Apples when someone else clearly had a better card (I promise I'm not still holding a grudge).

Now that I'm officially an adult, I want to pursue some new things. I want to experience life in a way that I never allowed myself to do prior to entering college. These are the years that I'm supposed to embark on a journey of self-discovery, so what better way to do that than to create a bucket list?

So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.
