10 Struggles of a Lazy College Student

Doing nothing is very hard to do, you never know when you're done.

10 Struggles of a Lazy College Student

1. Hitting the snooze button at least three times on all of your alarms before realizing you're late for class. Next thing you know, you're running across campus with your bunny slippers still on and a tooth brush dangling in your mouth.

2. Walking to class is already a struggle when you live on the opposite side of the campus from where you're supposed to be. Can't wait 'til it starts snowing!

3. Going to the Library isn't a concept you can grasp because for some reason, doing homework feels better when you're reclined at a nice 180 degrees in your bed with a fuzzy blanket and sweatpants.

4. Watching Netflix in order to keep up with Grey's and Gossip Girl and Stranger Things. Challenge accepted. When you're supposed to be typing your five page paper on Anthropology or reading the next seven chapters assigned for your Composition class, somehow Dr. McDreamy ends up calling your name. Nights well spent on Netflix never sounded better than going to the bars or frat parties.

5. Getting laundry done is hard when your mom is no longer pestering you to do it every fifteen minutes of your life. No amount of reminders and sticky notes will persuade you to get up and haul your two-weeks-worth of clothes down a flight of stairs for there to be a chance of running into completely occupied washing machines.


6. Taking a shower essentially means leaving the warmth of your bed and entering a war zone also known as the community bathroom. A cold shower in a cramped stall is not exactly appealing when you're freezing in the morning; trying to convince yourself that attending your 9AM class will actually help you build character.


7. Procrastination somehow just became your middle name. The goal at this point is to get it at least done by the time it is due. Whether it requires you to read your assignment while walking to class or waking up at the ass-crack of dawn. Slowly but surely, the show must go on.


8. Going to the Gym was an idea that once crossed your mind a long time ago, in a land far away. The thing is, even walking to the dining halls is enough cardio for the day. On the bright side, the dining halls are gifting you with pizza and fries. While the gym is giving you pulled hamstrings and shortness of breath.


9. Cleaning your room used to be something you had time to do, but avoided doing. Actually, cleaning your room is something you probably still have time to do, and you probably are still avoiding it. The only reasons why you clean your room now is because your room mate likes to keep the door open, or because your parents are coming up to visit. Otherwise, traditions will always remain the same.


10. Staying hungry... not to keep off the "Freshman 15" but only because the walk is too far. The combination of the Ramen and Gatorade stored away under your bed will probably hold you over for the next 4 days, then onto the granola bars.

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.
