20 Ways Parenthood is Just Like College

I got this out of the August 2005 American Baby Magazine

1. You feel like you're constantly being tested.
2. Someone's always smarter than you are (or at least they think they are).
3. Your roommates are slobs, and they steal your food.
4. There's nothing in your bank account.
5. All-nighters.
6. You get kicked out of the library for leaving behind crumbs and creating a ruckus.
7. Keg Parties and parties at Chuck E. Cheese produce the same kind of Hangover. (I didn't go to a school where there were keg parties, but we still had parties where we were feeling pretty wiped out the next day!)
8. You never seem to be able to get the place to yourself.
9. Naps.
10. You hate your roommates' music and they hate yours.
11. You can neither identify nor locate the source of that funky smell coming from your roommate's closet.
12. Five in the morning is really, really early - or really, really late - depending on whether you've been to bed yet.
13. People talk to you while you're in the shower.
14. You're too exhausted to retain what you're reading.
15. Oh, now you can identify that smell. You fogot to take the half-eaten sandwich out of the backpack yesterday.
16. You're wearing your college sweatshirt again - its the cleanest thing you could find.
17. Someone always leaves a party crying.
18. Hey! How about pizza? AGAIN!
19. You think you're the only one who feels clueless.
20. It goes so fast.

While looking through my new copy that arrived in the mail I happened along this little fun read. It amused me and made me laugh!
