The 6 Best Apps For 'Adulting'
Mateusz Dach

Everyone wants to be an adult, but the mere thought of adulting makes us shiver.

There are so many responsibilities that come with adulting, that it can be easy to get overwhelmed. Luckily we live in the age of technology, where there is practically an app for any and everything. As you start in your journey to adulthood consider downloading the following apps.

1. Google Calendar

This helps you keep track of everything you have going on and prevents you from overextending yourself. It’s a great place to set reminders for appointments, bills, and work. This works on both mobile devices and computers. There is even a reminder feature that will tell you exactly when to leave so you will make it to your destination on time.

2. Mint Personal Finance

Everyone needs a budget and sometimes we can get so busy that we forget to update our spreadsheets, but luckily there is Mint. You start by connecting your bank accounts and bill payment accounts to the app. Once that is done you create a monthly budget for yourself. Best part about it is that you can set reminder and automatic drafts for your bills. There are so many cost associated with adulting and this allows you to track your spending. Only downside is that you can’t track cash, so if you work in hospitality you must deposit the money if you want an accurate budget. This app breaks down card payments by locations and type, so you can see exactly where you should cut cost.

3. Tasty

Cooking and meal prep is a big part of adulthood, but for those who have had someone prepare their meals for them most of their life this can be a struggle. Tasty is an app that provides you with recipes for different occasions. It includes everything from meals to cocktails. The best part about the app is that every recipe features a video to make sure you are doing it right. My personal favorite is the one-pan dinners.

4. MyFitnessPal

If you are looking for a place to track your health and fitness progress look no further. MyFitnessPal allows you to set goals and with additional information it will tell you exactly what you need to do in order to reach those goals. It’s a food diary and a workout log all in one. This app is also compatible with various smartwatches and fitness bands.

5. RetailMeNot

6. Groupon

When you hit adulthood, it’s important to “get the most bang for your buck.” Why you may ask, because life’s basic necessities are expensive. Coupons, sales and discounts are music to anyone’s ears. RetailMeNot and Groupon are the best apps ever when you want to save money and still have a good time. They alert you of sales in major department stores and offer exclusive sales for local businesses.


With the help of these apps, you will have adulting down in no time.

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.
