10 Everyday Thoughts Of A College Student

College: The phase of life where you are wrapped in a bubble before real adulthood.

College is what every high school student dreams about and what every college student dreams of passing. College is quite the experience, that's for sure. Here are some typical everyday thoughts of a college student.

What am I really doing with my life? Do I REALLY need this degree? Dropping out sounds like a great idea.

Can I squeeze in that extra nap? My sleeping schedule never got more messed up until I went to college. College is the place where staying up past one a.m. every weekday is normal and so is the waking up at six forty-five for your eight a.m. class. It's the place where napping between classes has become the usual. It's debating if you can sleep in fifteen more minutes wondering if your professor will actually count you late.

Do I really need to go to class? The answer is yes when attendance is required but then debating if you should use one of your few skips for that class to sleep in.

Cafeteria food or the student center food? Do I want to use my swipes on Chick-Fil-A or save them for my daily Starbucks coffee? Might as well just eat in the cafeteria

Extra Credit? Knowing you should really take advantage of it but procrastinating during the semester to take advantage of it

Do I want to study or be social? Here's one of the real questions of college. Most of the time I end up procrastinating my studying until twelve am.

Or do I want to take another nap instead? Another very real struggle of college life.

I miss my mom. Do I want to make the drive to go home this weekend?

Do I want to pay to do my laundry or go bring it home? Mom loves to come to the rescue on that one.

Maybe living with my parents my whole life isn't such a bad idea after all. Admit it, you've thought it.

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.

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.
