1. Any and all Facebook posts and pictures taken before 2009.
We should all actually go through our pictures on Facebook right now and delete those traumatic years of braces and puberty. If anyone asks, I went from adorable toddler to semi put together college student. No, no there was no in-between and you can’t prove anything.
2. How many times they call their mom.
Mothers hold the answers to everything from how to get the stain out of your favorite sweater to how to deal with your annoying TA. Calls to mothers are off limits and strictly in the judgment-free zone.
3. The occasional binging on Netflix.
Now, this is something everyone should understand. Who cares if she doesn’t move for four hours? She’s going through the emotional roller coaster that is Blair and Chuck’s relationship.
4. How many times they’ve gotten their car towed.
Ahh … the great city of Columbus has no mercy on our souls when it comes to the speedy removal of our cars. But seriously, hold her hand as she hands over a check of $140 dollars for her two-minute illegal park outside CVS.
5. Anytime they listen to One Direction.
I mean, Kendall Jenner does, so that makes it okay, right? Hey, just thin–you’re one step closer to being a Kardashian. Next step, name your first child Southeast.
6. Bedtime facemasks.
I honestly can’t think of a less glamorous time of a girl’s day than getting ready for bed. It consists of baggy t-shirts, mismatched socks, weird buns and facemasks. A girl’s gotta do what a girl’s gotta do, judgment free.
7. How many times they went to Canes over the weekend.
No way you get to judge her, she worked hard for that Canes. She walked through snow, wind, crowds and most likely in uncomfortable shoes. Eat up, girl, you deserve this.
8. Mental breakdowns.
College has high highs and low lows. With that being said, mental breakdowns happen and it’s actually a good thing. It means you’re dealing with what you have going on and you shouldn’t be ashamed to have a breakdown.
9. Midway mishaps.
From losing phones to losing sense of direction, what happens at Midway stays at Midway, end of story.
10. Tinder.
Just kidding … Judge her and then delete the app. There is no way this is the future of dating. If so, I’m joining a convent.
