11 Reasons Why College Is Ew!

Hey, my name’s Marisa and welcome to Ew!: the article where I talk about all of the things about college that are ew!

Like, c'mon, you know that, sometimes, you just want to be like, "ew!" whenever your teacher gives you an assignment.

So, without further ado, here are all the ew things about college, as told by Jimmy Fallon.


1. All of the teachers are on the same four-week schedule, so, when week four rolls around, you can expect a lot of tests.

2. Sometimes, teachers will cancel classes without sending out emails.

It always sucks to get out of bed, go to class, and, when you get there, a note is on the door: Canceled.


3. You have no idea how to cook, but you better figure it out if you want to survive.

Or, you can be like me and get a bunch of frozen meals from Wal-Mart. Yum.


4. There are no such thing as “excuses” in college.

You just keep swimming or you will drown.


5. Sometimes, you will have to schedule 8 a.m. classes.

Need I say more?


6. You will always have a teacher who loves application questions.

“I don’t want you to memorize the information. I want you to know it and be able to apply it.”

I know that they’re just trying to teach us, or something, but that still doesn’t make it fun.

7. You have to suffer through classes that have absolutely nothing to do with your major.

Me: I want to be a therapist. College: That’s awesome. Now, go ahead and dissect this cow brain.


8. Your family never really understands how hard college actually is.

I’d like to see them do it!

Anatomy tests, anyone? Didn’t think so.

9. What is money exactly?



10. Dorms don't allow pets.

Yeah, Fluffy isn't gonna be able to come.


11. But... it may just be the best time of your life.


Of course, there are so many wonderful things about college, but that wouldn't be as much fun to talk about. College has its ups and downs, but, in the end, it's worth it.

So, that's it for this week's episode of Ew! See you next time.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
