Dumb Things I’ve Asked My Mom Since I Moved Out

This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at UNCW chapter.

Lately, I’ve found myself dialing my mom’s number to ask about the smallest things. Since I moved out this past August I’ve pretty much adjusted to living on my own, but I’m still struggling with the whole “being an adult” thing. I definitely keep my mom on her toes with all of my crazy dilemmas of the week, so here are just a few of them:   

 

1. How do I get money out of my bank account without using an ATM?

 

2. How do you get a lipstick stain out of a curtain?

Honestly, I have no idea how this happened. Clearly my ability to ruin nice things is impressive.

 

3. I don’t understand this ten-year-old washer/dryer. Please help.

 

4. How do you fold fitted sheets? They are impossible.

 

5. Why is everything so much money?

 

6. What is our insurance, and what does it mean?

 

7. What medicine am I allergic to?

 

8. Can you send me my credit card? I left it at home.

 

A big thank you to my mom for being so patient. This one’s for you! XOXO
