I recently turned 21. Exciting, I know. The day that you look forward to as soon as you walk onto a college campus... I mean... besides graduation. So here are 21 thoughts that I had as I finally turned 21.
1. Can you buy booze at the liquor store at midnight?

9. Oh, yeah, cool. I forever appreciate that the wait time for the DMV is 12 years long...
10. Cool, so the camera flash hid the bags under my eyes.
11. Can I buy booze now?

12. SHE ASKED FOR MY ID WHAT DO I DO?!
13. Oh, right... My ID is actually legal now.

14. Has alcohol always been this expensive?
15. *looks at Burnett's bottles* No, you're better than that. You're an adult.
16. Tequila? Yeah, that doesn't sound like a poor decision.

21. Holy S#*T, I have class in the morning...
However you spend your 21st, be sure to do so responsibly. Party hard, but most of all, party smart and safe. Don't drink and drive.
