Signs You're A Basic Female College Student

1. Bohemian Tapestries Cover Your Walls

A sure sign of a college girl’s dorm room. Honestly, most girls have one over their bed as wall decorations and one probably on their kitchen walls. They are cute, cheap and make great backgrounds to take pictures against.

2. Color Coordinated Accessories

Whether it’s your outfit, backpack, or bins under your bed. It’s essential for our shoes to match our backpack and ID case. Your bedspread sets the tone for the rest of your accessories, usually in a bright pink or design from Bed Bath and Beyond.

3. Your Favorite LL Bean Moccasins

Alright, so these should probably be kept to lounging around the house but are by far the most comfortable shoes ever. You can’t go anywhere without bringing your mocs…even if they technically aren’t real shoes.

4. Love Your Melon Beanie

Winter’s cutest accessory comes in every color so there’s always a hat to go with your outfit. As soon as it starts snowing, every girl (and guy) on campus can be spotted wearing one.

5. Coffee in Hand

Dunkin, Starbucks, Boston Donuts, whatever your fave, is crucial to your survival in college as a successful female college student. Gotta keep that coffee or specialty drink in hand at all times.

6. Vera Bradley and Lily Pulitzer EVERYTHING

So many colors and patterns to choose from, your duffle bag, planner, favorite dress, and wallet all are different. You’re always on top of the new pattern releases to get the latest item for school or accessory.

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.
