The Truth Is Out

I am an old lady trapped in a young adult's body.

While most say that they are a "kid trapped in an adult's body," I am the complete opposite. So, here are the reasons why I am actually an old lady trapped in the body of a twenty-one-year-old.

1.

It is common for my bones to make noises when I move and I am often visiting the chiropractor to get my hip put back into place.

2.

Since I see a chiropractor often, I also ice my entire body for my weak bones and inflamed muscles. P.S. I hate the cold so this is always a fun time.

3.

I go to bed early, like I am usually in bed by 10. If I had it my way I would probably be asleep around 9. #noshame

4.

When the weekend comes around, you won't find me at parties or sleeping late in the afternoon. I will be watching movie marathons on tv, running errands, or getting things done around my dorm or house.

5.

I complain a lot. Often about "kids these days" with all of their shenanigans.

6.

I would rather spend time and talk with my dog than actual people. And yes, I talk to my dog who probably thinks I am crazy.

7.

Vines, memes, movie references, and "modern" terms? Yeah, count me out for those because I have no clue what you are talking about.

8.

If you want to talk to me, be prepared to repeat things multiple times because I cannot hear you to save my life.

9.

I eat dinner early, and if I don't I am super cranky. Now 2:30 is a little extreme, but do not be surprised if you see me in the cafeteria at 4:30/5 every day.

10.

I am always the mom in my friend group, and I mean ALWAYS. However, I don't mind. I guess as I get older I will become the grandma of the friend group.

11.


Lastly, DO NOT get me started on these gas prices.

The Daily Struggles of Being a College Commuter

It's not all morning coffees and singing along to the radio.

The Daily Struggles of Being a College Commuter
morethanwheels

I've been in college for four years now. I spent half my time as a commuter and half as a resident so I've experienced both sides of the housing spectrum. One thing I've learned comparing the two is that my struggles as a commuter far outweigh anything I went through while living on campus. Commuters have to deal with the problems school brings along with a slew of other issues; I've filled up my gas tank in the worst kind of weather conditions and napped in random places in public more times than I'm proud to say of. This is a list of some of the most challenging aspects of being a commuter.

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!
