Your early 20s are a weird time of life. College is about to end, or you've just finished, and now you're expected to be a full grown adult. The only problem is you still feel like a kid. Nobody understands this more than professional man child and "New Girl" character Nick Miller.

1. When you're asked what you have accomplished so far in life.

2. When anyone asks you what you plan on doing after graduating college.

3. When it gets too hard and you just need your best friend to be a kid with you.

4. Your ideal day off.

5. When an older relative asks if you're seeing anyone, because you're not getting any younger.

6. Drunchies are your favorite part of a night out.

7. Quoting rappers who just get life.

8. When a night out gets a little too weird.

9. When another person from high school announces an engagement on Facebook, and the closest thing you have to a committed relationship is the guy who delivers your pizza on the weekends.

10. You've literally given up on flirting.

11. You're a little too addicted to your phone.

12. You have found infinite ways to entertain yourself.

13. You start to appreciate the little things in life.

14. You can't really describe where you are in life, but you know it's where you're supposed to be.

15. Your internal monologue at the end of every day.

16. But at the end of the day, you're still having the time of your life, because you can only be in your early 20s once.

When I was learning how to talk, I was taught both Portuguese and English at the same time. In elementary school, I started taking mandatory Spanish classes, which I did well in because of my knowledge of Portuguese. Then in high school, on top of taking Spanish, I also started taking French. Now, in college, already fluent in English and Portuguese, I'm in the process of becoming fluent in Spanish, and I have a standard high school level understanding of French.

I am without a doubt one of those people who refuses to start decorating for Christmas or listen to Christmas music until after Thanksgiving. Unfortunately, Thanksgiving has become an underrated holiday over the years. You barely see any Thanksgiving decorations in stores; it's like they skip right from Halloween to Christmas.
