Ah being a Penn State student—some of the greatest four years of your life. If you're a student from the best school in the world, you can definitely say you've done the following:

1. You have almost died going through the revolving library doors.


2. You have been too drunk to stand on the bleachers properly during a football game... so you got a chicken basket and sat down instead.

3. You tried going to the Den with a fake ID.

4. You cursed under your breath walking up the Shortlidge hill.


5. You went to McClanahans for a specific item and walked out with five other things.


6. You said "We Are" to a tour group, not really out of school pride but just to be an asshole.

8. You skipped class to day drink.

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.
