10 Ways To Pretend Like You Got Your Sh*t Together

“And even if you don’t have material possessions, pretending like you have your sh*t together is the best way to have your sh*t together until you actually do.” – The Betches


1. Talk about how much you love yoga

“I do yoga. It relieves my stress and anxiety.” - People will literally think you’re an evolved species of human.

2. Leggings. Are. Everything.

Number one lazy girl rule: When in doubt – leggings. They are basically the greatest invention of all time and you will absolutely never regret wearing them.

3. The messy bun – embrace it, love it.

The messier, the better. Love the messy bun and work it.

4. Starbucks

Not basic if you order a black coffee or single expresso - except that it tastes like dog sh*t. Just order your pumpkin spice latte like a basic girl and keep rockin’ your messy bun.

5. Read books in public places – then Instagram it

Since no one you know will actually see you reading.

6. Use a planner

Extra points if you have a brand name planner. You might actually have your sh*t together. Or, you’re just trying to stunt on the peasants with the target brand planners. Either way, you’re giving off the impression that you care about things. #adulting

7. Iron your damn shirt

You look like a piece of sh*t that threw up on another piece of sh*t when your shirt is wrinkled. Just iron your shirt before your boss sends you home for looking like sh*t.

8. Silently nod when someone talks to you about the news

Trump. Hillary. *nod* Now you can talk about the cute puppy video you saw on Facebook this morning.

9. Snapchat yourself in workout clothes

A fierce selfie in gym clothes with the caption of a muscle arm emoji will definitely make people think you’re fit and healthy. So, even if you never set foot in a gym, you can fool people into thinking that you take spinning classes and like cardio.

10. Bad B*tch Alert

Hold your head up high, save your smiles for those who deserve them and let the world know that you’re the HBIC. Attitude is everything when you're faking it.

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.

December... it's full of finals, due dates, Mariah Carey, and the holidays. It's the worst time of the year, but the best because after finals, you get to not think about classes for a month and catch up on all the sleep you lost throughout the semester. But what's worse than finals week is the last week of classes, when all the due dates you've put off can no longer be put off anymore.
