Nothing says you're in your early 20's like a good old fashioned panic attack about your life choices and the fact that every move you make is extremely critical to what path you're going to go down for the next five or 10 years, but I mean, it's whatever.

If that doesn't sum up a significant part of your senior year in college, then I don't know what does. Senior year is also the best -- it's your last year in school, you get to hang out in bars with your friends, make that last stretch to study and write that paper, receive graduating gifts and pictures, and lastly, it's your time to dominate the school because you are a senior and you can.

1. Senioritis, can I just stay in bed all day and debate what I'm going to do with my life?

2. What am I supposed to do after I graduate?

3. No, I refuse to move back home with my parents.

4. I'm not ready to graduate yet.

5. Debating on changing your major just to stay longer.

6. There are no more cool birthdays after you turn 21, so I must be old right?

7. I'm so over this school, get me out of this place.

8. Spending a significant amount of time debating on what to ask your parents for for graduation.

9. I wonder who I will stay in touch with when I graduate?

10. I'm gonna to miss everyone so much.

11. But thank God I won't see that wench's face again.

12. Wait, so does that mean no more partying?

13. I'm not ready to be a responsible adult.

14. I can barely handle myself.

15. Am I ready for the real world?

16. Where am I supposed to move to once I graduate?

17. But I'm actually so ready to never take a test, write a paper or have homework ever again.

18. What if I'm one those people who can't find a job after they graduate?

19. I'm not ready to leave my home of the past four years.

20. Forget all those people who didn't think I could do it! I got my degree!

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.
