This past year I finally made it to twenty-one. Being a college student, this was the one thing I was actually looking forward to. The three years of being a fake adult were finally over as I stepped into a new world... a 21-year-old's world. Though being twenty-one does have its perks, here are some reasons why it actually sucks.
1. That shit is expensive.
Wait... How much did I spend last night?
2. You gain like...10 pounds.
3. The whole bar is just one massive line.
4. Happy hour is from 9-11. And on a Wednesday?
Guess I'm skipping my 8 a.m. tomorrow
5. Everyone is always asking you to buy them alcohol.
6. Your hangovers get more painful every time you drink.
7. You can barely keep down a shot.
8. Uber becomes a key part of your life.
9. You get drinks spilled on you. All. The. Time.
Who thought drinking on the dance floor was a good idea?
10. There is always a cover.
11. You forget to close your tab.
And have to pay it in the morning.
12. Bouncers will kick you out for anything.
13. And sometimes they don't even ask you for your ID.
14. You can finally be considered an alcoholic.
15. This is the last birthday you can really look forward to.
No one likes you when your 22
16. Not all your friends are 21 yet.
17. Sometimes you just want to stay at home and drink by yourself.
18. You finally can legally drink around your parents and it's weird AF.
19. You are dragged to the bars after every event.
Even after a damn crate race.
20. Hooking up with different people just isn't the same anymore.
21. You realize you're getting way to old for all of this.
Cheers to being 21!
