Nobody Likes You When You're 23

Just a few reasons why being 23 is the worst.

We've all heard the famous Blink182 song, "What's My Age Again?" but what exactly is so awful about being 23? I recently turned 23 this month and I've compiled a list of things I hate about this age and why you should too.

1. I, along with most people, have either graduated college or been working for several years now and have experienced the joy of paying student loans and bills-upon-bills. And by joy I mean extreme hatred and sadness.

2. Living on your own is fun and all, but why is something that's used to wipe your butt so dang expensive? Buying things that are necessities is the worst.

3. I'm expected to know how to schedule my own doctor appointments and know important information about myself that I definitely do not know. When, in reality, I just want to call my parents and have them do it for me.

4. I'm at the age where I'm considered an adult, but I don't yet see myself that way.

5. It's now frowned upon to survive by eating Ramen and Hot Pockets, but cooking sucks and I hate it.

6. I should be "taking care of myself" and eating vitamins and stuff like that, but instead I'd rather eat an entire sleeve of Oreos and chase it down with a caffeine filled beverage.

This list could go on and on, but basically 23 sucks and I'm sad I'm no longer feeling 22.

"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!

There is nothing quite like family.

Family is kinda like that one ex that you always find yourself running back to (except without all the regret and the angsty breakup texts that come along with it).

Bob's Burgers is arguably one of the best and most well-written shows on tv today. That, and it's just plain hilarious. From Louise's crazy antics to Tina's deadpan self-confidence, whether they are planning ways to take over school or craft better burgers, the Belchers know how to have fun. They may not be anywhere close to organized or put together, but they do offer up some wise words once and awhile.

We're in college, none of us actually have anything together. In fact, not having anything together is one of our biggest stressors. However, there's a few little things that we do ever so often that actually make us feel like we have our lives together.

1. Making yourself dinner

And no this does not include ramen or Annie's Mac & Cheese. Making a decent meal for yourself is one of the most adult things you can do living on campus. And the food is much better than it would be at the dining hall.

I went to a small high school, like 120-people-in-my-graduating-class small. It definitely had some good and some bad, and if you also went to a small high school, I’m sure you’ll relate to the things that I went through.

1. If something happens, everyone knows about it

Who hooked up with whom at the party? Yeah, heard about that an hour after it happened. You failed a test? Sorry, saw on Twitter last period. Facebook fight or, God forbid, real fight? It was on half the class’ Snapchat story half an hour ago. No matter what you do, someone will know about it.
