Ladies, Nike Shorts And Ratty T-Shirts Are For ANYwhere, End Of Story
Rachel Gedosh

Every night, I spend 20 minutes preparing myself for the following day.

I start with a shower where I wash my hair, face, and body. I then dry my hair with a towel and brush my teeth. Afterwards, I do whatever the heck I want!

Ladies, it’s time to grow up.

It’s time to realize we can’t tell each other what to do and we need to stop trying. Who I hang out with is no one’s business. What I do in my spare time is no one’s business. And especially what I wear to class/work/the gym is no one’s business but my own. Now of course since I attended public schools all my life, I was shocked when I came to college and saw girls going to class in business casual. However, I didn’t judge or even care! You do you. I prefer shorts/leggings and a t-shirt because I do a lot of walking and sitting throughout the day, but that’s just me! Whoever wants to tell you different (yes, you, the girl who wrote "Ladies, Nike Shorts And Leggings Are For The Gym, Nowhere Else”) is wrong.

Straight up wrong.

Now, ladies, I understand life is a party and one should dress like it, but some parties call for shorts and a t-shirt (aka my class schedule). We are allowed to feel beautiful whenever and in whatever we want! Wearing a T-shirt doesn’t take any of my value or right to be respected away. If you want to be treated like a grown ass woman, you have to act like one. Meaning, be respectful and kind to others. Love yourself and take life seriously when it needs to be. That doesn’t mean you must wear a polyester suit 24/7. Wear whatever the heck you want to class!

Nike shorts and ratty T-shirts are for anywhere. End of story.

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?

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?

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. 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.
