Most college students can relate to the therapeutic powers of a good ol' "Law and Order: SVU" marathon. Whether it's the ability to get sucked into someone else's drama, or the thrilling chases, "SVU" is one on my go to shows to marathon. Despite our age difference, our career difference, and our wild difference in ability to pull off short hair, I often find myself relating to Olivia Benson in many ways I think college students would understand. I thus present, eleven times Olivia Benson understood the college student struggle.
1. When you have an impossible amount of work due tomorrow
2. When your friends go out and you stay in studying
3. When your parents ask you how college is going
4. When you're just too confused in class to function
5. What you feel like doing when your professor assigns a massive amount of reading
6. How you react to failing your first exam
7. Rushing to class when you wake up late
8. Having to hold yourself back when you disagree with the professor's grading
9. How you celebrate when you finish a stressful project
10. Realizing you have less work than you thought
11. Basically every time a high school student complains about workload and stress
