10 Reasons Why Childhood Is Way Better Than Adulthood

Being an adult can be a bit stressful at times. OK, maybe super stressful. But do you ever think about how easy you had it years, and years ago? No matter how hard it was growing up and learning what life had to throw at us, we all relate to a global scale, and that is, childhood was the easiest time of our lives.

Today, I will enlighten you on 10 relatable examples on how childhood is way better than adulthood.

1. No one ever judges you, you're a kid for God's sake.

Getting caught picking your nose as a kid might ruin your day. But being caught picking your nose as an adult will ruin your life.


2. You never have to hunt your own food.

Having provided breakfast, lunch, and dinner could be compared to the luxury we all dream about: basically having personal butlers and a team of home chefs.


3. The world WANTS you to sleep.

The forced naps we all fought, cried over, and took for granted will always be the cornerstone of our daydreams at the office.


4. No one needs your help with anything. What can you do? You're a little kid.

According to adult, about all you can do is be dumb, moody, and weak. People thought we were good for nothing, but now we need to pull out all the excuses...or burn all the bridges.



5. The only reason you need money is for that hot new toy!

We didn't need as much to keep us happy. The crap-painted-and-made-in-Hell "toy" from the dollar store not only kept us busy and happy, it made our day, it...until it broke the following morning.


6. Say something stupid? Don't be ashamed; adults think it's funny.

No matter how sure you think you are as a kid, you're wrong. And the adults won't be mad or hold grudges for it––They will laugh at your face and make you famous on YouTube.
Kids say the darnedest things.


7. The only work in your life is homework, and c'mon, it's 2 + 2.

It wouldn't matter if you just weren't feeling it. You might get yelled at, but it's perfectly fine if you "just didn't want to do it today."

Unlike a real job.


8. No matter how badly you screw up, the worst you'll get is a spanking or time to relax in your room all day.

No police, no prison. Even if you murdered someone, they might just have you say "sorry" to the family. Just make sure you never do it again, okay?

*Rustles your hair* Okay, now go play.


9. Your little hands will never be trapped in a can of Pringles.

It was the one thing you could do that no adult could. You're totally above everyone!


10. Responsibilities in the life of a child are all of none.

Kick back, relax and grab the popcorn.

Watch your parents stress about all the responsibilities they have to go through to keep you alive!

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.

Top 10 Reasons My School Rocks!

Why I Chose a Small School Over a Big University.

I was asked so many times why I wanted to go to a small school when a big university is so much better. Don't get me wrong, I'm sure a big university is great but I absolutely love going to a small school. I know that I miss out on big sporting events and having people actually know where it is. I can't even count how many times I've been asked where it is and I know they won't know so I just say "somewhere in the middle of Wisconsin." But, I get to know most people at my school and I know my professors very well. Not to mention, being able to walk to the other side of campus in 5 minutes at a casual walking pace. I am so happy I made the decision to go to school where I did. I love my school and these are just a few reasons why.
