The 5 Ways You Know You’re An Adult Now

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

University is a time when you have to start adulting and taking on actual grown-up responsibilities. You might not realize that you’re an adult, but these moments will make it very clear.

 

1. When you have to start cooking for yourself

Sorry, if boxed mac and cheese and ramen noodles can’t give me the sustenance I need for healthy function in a high-stress environment, then why even bother?

 

2. When you have to pay a bill

Newsflash: good wifi costs money. I know.

 

3. When you have to start working on resumes and cover letters

Please hire me. My six months of experience at McDonald’s is enough for an office job, right?

 

4. When you start booking your own appointments

I actually have to call the dentist?

 

5. When you graduate

I’m an adult now and I have a piece of paper that proves it!
