Signs You're A 20-Something Grandma

Ways that you're a mix between a grandma and a young adult.

If you've ever been called a grandma and you're only in college, don't worry, you're of a select group of cool people that have the best of both worlds (or maybe I am just calling us cool because I'm a part of the group). Here are some signs that may tell you if you are a 20-year-old with a dash of "grandma."

1. You like to eat dinner early... like five in the evening.

If you're in a long-term relationship, your boyfriend probably knows by now to make those reservations earlier rather than later. You prefer a nice dinner earlier in the evening versus eight o'clock at night because you won't be up much longer after that!


2. Your bedtime is also early.

Just like I said above, you have trouble staying up late on any night. And even if you could stay up, you don't want to. You love your sleep and your bed is seriously your closest friend.


3. You don't like to deal with technology.

Sure, you may have a smartphone like everyone else, but when it comes to having to do anything but text or check Facebook, you may need some help. You do not want to deal with a computer if a problem arises and you hate using technology more than you have to.


4. You like to knit and crochet.

If your idea of fun is making a blanket on a Tuesday night, then you've definitely got a part of a grandma in you. But how cool are you when you've finished that masterpiece instead of watching a bunch of sweaty men kick a ball around with your friends.


5. You are annoyed by "young people."

You can barely stand to go out to a club or anywhere where there's music and a lot of kids your age because you get so annoyed with them. It's just too much for you to handle without becoming a literal old woman and yelling at them. Your mind has matured to "boring" stages already so you don't feel the need to jump around everywhere to that dub-step and take shots.


6. Your weekends are full of baking, Netflix and sleeping.

You are perfectly content with spending your time off from classes every weekend just chilling. You will catch up on sleep instead of going out every night, and a good evening for you is some reading or TV and baking.


7. You obsess over your cat(s).

So, you may be acting like a cat lady already (if you're like me anyways). There's really no need for explanation here.


8. You eat whatever you want.

You live for your comfort foods and would rather have that mac and cheese and potatoes than a salad. Although you don't necessarily binge eat, you won't beat yourself up too bad for eating those chocolate chip cookies or those pancakes for dinner.


9. You know want you want and don't take crap from anyone.

By now, you have already figured out exactly what you want and how you will get it, and you won't let anyone be rude and stand in front of you along the way. Old people may seem mean or demanding in public, but most of the time they just know what they want and expect to get it. But you don't need to be mean about it at least.


10. You're either in a long-term relationship or only looking for that.

As I said earlier, your mind seems to have matured way quicker than intended. You don't want to waste time dating the wrong people when you just want your best friend to come along to spend the rest of your days with. It's actually quite romantic.

Power of Love Letters

I don't think I say it enough...

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
