Being in college is really hard; sometimes you must resort to being an old person. Here is a list of signs that prove you're actually an old person.

1. You knit and crochet more than anyone you know.

And your hands end up hurting.

2. You eat tapioca pudding and you like it.

Is this not something that you've seen your grandma eat?

3. You want to go to bed at 9 p.m. like...every night.

Even on nights out, you really just want to be warm in your bed.

4. Calling people a year younger than you the "youth."

Getting defensive when youngsters show up even remotely close to your property; you start to get all weird.

5. You say years young rather than years old.

Personally I find this very annoying, but I caught myself saying this about someone.

6. You eat by the clock rather than actually being hungry.

Oh, it's noon? Does anyone want to get lunch?

7. You don't live by the "pain is beauty" standards and wear orthopedic shoes all the time.

Because who really needs to wear heels all the time?

8. You constantly want to make cookies for people who come over.

Making cookies may not be the obvious "grandmotherly" thing to do, but hey, who doesn't like cookies?

9. You call younger kids "hooligans."

They aren't even that much younger than you...and they're not doing anything particularly bad...

10. Your joints constantly crack.

You simultaneously feel old, and wonder if you're too young to have arthritis.

11. Coffee after 2 p.m. will keep you up all night long.

Don't drink coffee after a certain hour because it's a really bad idea.
