1. Wear something other than sweatpants at least once a week.

2. When someone offers food to your whole floor; don’t take it all. Save some for the other broke and hungry college students.

3. Stay awake in class so we can ask you for help when we don’t understand something (or actually do but want an excuse to talk to you).

4. Start by actually going to class at least once a week.

5. Ask us out on an actual date (we like free food and real, face-to-face conversations).

6. Have said real conversation without making it all about you. You are not the only one who has an interesting life.

7. Bring back chivalry (holding open doors is a good start).

8. Work out several times a week; muscles are never a bad thing.

9. Get out of your comfort zone and have new experiences (aka put down your x box controller and read a good book or turn off ESPN and pick up a new hobby).

10. Clean your room and do your laundry; your mom isn't at college with you.

11. Compliment girls. We like to know that you notice when we put on makeup once a week.

12. Do your homework instead of copying ours.

13. Buy your own food instead of stealing all of ours.

14. Don’t hog the lounge TV 24/7 watching sports (unless it’s baseball and the Cardinals are playing).

15. Think twice before going to the party with a 100 cup beer pong tournament. You'll regret that decision tomorrow.

16. Grow up. You're at least 18 so please act like it.

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?

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?
