If you're a constantly busy college student, chances are you're an organized mess and don't even know it. This oxymoronic term doesn't mean you're a slob or haven't washed dishes in a month, though. It means you've got your life under control enough to be an adult in public, but in private you feel more like an adult cat: you can take care of yourself, but it's probably better if someone takes care of you. Here are 7 things you'll relate to if you're trying to be an adult, but chaos is your master.

1. Your room looks like a trainwreck!

But you know where everything is because you have specific piles for work, school, family, extracurricular #1, #2, #...

2. When someone moves your stuff, you have a mini panic attack because they don't know your system!

3. You ordered all of your textbooks two weeks ahead of time, trying to prepare for classes...

Then you forgot to bring a pencil.

4. Your notes are detailed, comprehensive, and make perfect sense to you.

To anyone else, they look like Sanskrit and Calculus had a baby.

5. You wear mismatched socks every day.

1. because you're too lazy to match your socks after washing them and 2. you're running late and can't find any matches in your sock pile.

6. You made a grocery list and you're definitely sticking to it!

Or you would be if you hadn't left it at home.

7. You have a beautifully filled out planner with every last detail of your life written down...and you can't remember where you left it.
