I was so excited to finally become independent in college until I was faced with doing things out of my comfort zone.
Let's just say I am not very skilled at most things, especially ones that most people know how to do on a weekly basis. Here are some things I need my mom's help with, at 20-years-old.
Cooking
The first thing I immediately realized I cannot do is making a real meal on my own. I can make a grilled cheese and the occasional noodles, but if I don't have my mom there to help me, there is a 99% chance that whatever I am making is going to burn.
Keeping my space clean
I would say I'm a pretty clean person, but I am even cleaner at home because of my mom. She is constantly telling me to clean up my room. Without that, it can turn into a bottomless pit FAST.
Surviving being sick
Not knowing if I'm sick or how to take care of myself when I'm sick has cost me all of my sick days for classes already. Mom, please come get me ginger ale.
