No matter how many times we say certain things, about half of the time anything that comes out of our mouth is either an exaggeration or a just a little white lie. We don't mean any harm, but in case you haven't caught on to the real meaning of what everyone's saying, here are 13 translations of a college kids' statements into what they actually mean.
1. “It should be a quiet weekend. I’ll probably see some friends, get some homework done, maybe go to the library or watch a movie. Nothing too crazy."
“I’m really going to go out, probably go to a few different parties, and then go to the Library. I did mention the Library was a bar, right?”
2. “I’m only going to have one drink, two max.”
“I’ll probably lose track of the number of drinks I actually have.”
3. “I think I’m going to make myself a salad for dinner.”
“Who has the Domino's number?”
4. “Yeah, literally the whole class failed that.”
“I was too busy catching up on 'The Bachelor' and procrastinating that I may have forgotten about that quiz.”
5. “No I don’t have any homework due tomorrow, but I am going to get started on some work for next week.”
“I’m going to organize my planner and start a new series on Netflix.”
6. “Don’t let me text him tonight.”
“I’m going to throw a fit if you try and take my phone away later.”
7. “We should totally hang out more.”
“I’ll probably see you again in a month and say the same exact thing.”
8. “I can’t wait to go to bed early tonight.”
“I won’t be in bed until 2:00 AM at the earliest.”
9. “I’m so much fun when I go out!”
10. “I’m going to start working out.”
“Maybe I’ll make it once a week to my gym that’s in my apartment – emphasis on the maybe.”
11. “Yeah, I’m fine with just being friends with benefits.”
“I’m actually in love with you and am planning our wedding on my Pinterest.”
12. “I’m such a morning person!”
“If the morning starts, it should be no earlier than noon.”
13. “I don’t want to graduate.”
We actually mean that one.
