1. Blacking out. While this may be an obvious sign that you've drank way more than you should have, sometimes blacking out is really, really fun (Sorry, mom). Not to mention, a black out is there to save you from embarrassment, which could also be another reason why we love doing it so much. Because everyone knows the rule that if you don't remember it, who's to say that it really happened.
2. Cheap alcohol. It's cheap. And it's alcohol. Need I say more?
3. Rain. Because everyone knows that there is no better excuse to skip class and binge watch your favorite shows on your friend's Netflix account.
4. The Kardashians. Hate to love them, love to hate them.
5. Fake jewelry. There is no better statement piece than a cheap necklace from Forever 21 because not only does it make a simple outfit much more memorable, but it is also not the end of the world if you lose it on the floor of the bedroom of that kid you hooked up with.
6. Drunk texting. Drunk texts are key ingredients in piecing your nights back together. Sure, sometimes they can be slightly embarrassing, but at least you will know that you ate pizza at 1:57 a.m. and that you really need to go to the gym the next morning.
7. Booty calls. Regardless of whether or not you actually decide to go over, there is no better self-esteem boost than knowing that someone is thinking about you.
8. Drunk crying. So, maybe you don't love the tears when you are not the one shedding them -- but when you are, it just feels so good.
9. Snapchat stories over 100 seconds long. Obviously, when someone else has a story longer than 100 seconds you are going to tap the glass of your iPhone to speed up the story just to get the notification that @Slyndzz has posted a story to go away, but when it's your story, it's absolutely hilarious.
10. Screenshoting. Ah, the devil, but I'm definitely not sorry. Everything needs documentation.
11. Super high heels. Sure, they hurt your feet a little, but everyone knows that pain is beauty. Plus, high heels work wonders for your legs -- and who doesn't love that?
12. Drunk eating. Calories don't count when you are drunk, so that greasy burger and large fries that you have secretly been craving all day is finally okay to indulge in.
13. Ariana Grande. Her music is oddly catchy and her outfits are always on point.
14. Theme parties. I've heard that you are supposed to outgrow theme parties once you graduate from high school, but there is seriously nothing like not having to stress over picking out an outfit. Plus, nothing gets more Instagram likes than you and your best friend wearing matching tutus.
15. Throwing up. Gross, I know. But puke and rally is a real thing. I promise.
16. Instagram filters. Yes, natural beauty and self confidence is key to living a healthy life. And, yes, you are absolutely gorgeous and you have every right to post a picture with #NoFilter. But, filters rock and there is no denying that.
17. Emojis. If your best friend's name doesn't have a heart, a wine glass, and the twin kick line girls next to her name in your phonebook, is she really your best friend?
18. Sweat pants. Sometimes being comfortable is way more important than being cute.
19. Carbs. Bagels. Pasta. Bread. Cupcakes. Pizza. The list goes on and on.
20. October 3. And all other Mean Girls references.
21. Being the friend with "resting b***h face." Sometimes, it's nice to know that you can be intimidating without even having to try. Plus, it lets people know that you're not going to take their crap, even if you are in the greatest of moods.
22. Tanning. There is something about a tanning bed that just instantly makes you feel so good.
23. Tequila. Because Tequila.
24. Bruce Jenner. If you can seriously say that you are not absolutely intrigued by everything about Bruce Jenner, you're a liar.
25. Fraternity house basements. Sweaty. Dark. And full of regrets. But for some reason, you can absolutely not stay away.
26. Flirting with co-workers. I know it's frowned upon, but let's be honest, nothing makes getting up for work in the morning more exciting than knowing you get to see the cutie from the mailroom.
