    I turned 18...

    I turned 18 a few weeks ago and honestly??? What is being an adult?? I legit have no clue and I'm graduating in June and I just don't know what I'm doing with my life. I joined these ridiculous sites when I was like, 13 tho, so I thought I'd just make that lil announcement.

    Also, give me life/college advice, bc I have no clue what I'm going to do next year when I move in at college. Like, I'm doing Biomed, but give me practical advice. And tell me funny stories about your adulting experiences.

    I'm 23 and honestly, I still don't know how to adult...

    With time you start to make decisions and take big steps though, and to feel you control your own life.
    Just relax, I know 30 year olds that are basically teens with jobs LOL

    I am 26 and have zero idea how to adult.

    I like to think of myself as a functional child, in that I function 8 hours for work then child the rest of the time.

    I have zero advice for college. I got all my core classes done early (and cheaper) at a community college because I didn't want huge amount of debt when graduating. I waited til last minute to do my assignments like a good college kid and was broke the entire time.

    I'm turning 22 in July and I still have no clue how to be an adult. I'm still attending college as I change my mind every few months or so about what I want to do with my life so I'm probably not the best person to give advices.

    Take it easy, just don't stress it out to much! You've still got a lot of time to figure things out.

    I'm in my 30s and still don't know wth is going on.
    As a mom, I do know that as teenagers we need to stop thinking that being an adult is soooo fun, cause it's not.
    All my punishments as kids are now rewards. (Going to bed early, staying in, Not talking on the phone.)

    My advice: find your passion, and figure out a way for it to make you money.

    Being an adult?

    Last weekend we went grocery shopping. Put away the cart at the outside cart return and noticed someone had left their big jug of Tide laundry detergent, the $20 a jug tip on its side with a spout one, on the bottom rack where you do not normally look unless you have a lot of items. No one was around who it may have belonged to so we jacked that shit right away. We were excited at finding a free bottle of Tide. That is what being an adult is about, saving money and doing chores.

    I don't have much advice to give on college seeing that I only went for a semester...

    I'm 22 and I definitely don't adult yet. But what is being an adult exactly?
    I make decisions and I take care of myself. You do that too already.

    My advice to you is (not that it means shit really lol), find what motivates you and stick with it. You can do anything if your motivated.
