There's nothing more fulfilling than feeling like you have your life together.
Then, just like that, you start college and you come to understand just how much you don't have your life together. You start sleeping past your alarm. You find out about a big test in class the day it's given. You hardly get any sleep trying to complete an assignment that should have only taken an hour but has taken the entire night. But that's all okay. It happens in college. To be honest, no one really knows what they're doing and everyone is simply faking it until they make it. On that note, here are 12 ways to look like you have your life together in college.
1. Always have a cup of coffee in hand
It makes you look like you have time to enjoy a nice cup of coffee even though you really don't.
2. Highlight all over your textbook
It makes others think that you took time to understand the assigned readings instead of skimming through them like you most likely did.
3. Keep an agenda with you at all times
It gives you the chance to make yourself look busier than you are.
4. Always talk about your new diet
Even if the diet is eating a tub of ice cream a night, no one needs to know that your diet is unhealthy.
5. Ask questions in class, even if you already know the answers
Even if you already know the answers to the questions you're asking, it makes you look as though you've really thought about the lesson at hand.
6. Or talk to the teacher after class
It shows that you are generally interested in the topic and getting a good grade, even if you're only really interested with the latter.
7. Go to the library
The act of going to the library shows that you at least try to understand what the hell is going on in your classes.
8. Constantly have a textbook in your hand
While always having a textbook with you might have made you seem like a nerd in high school, in college it makes you look like you have your life together.
9. Always walk to class with headphones on
This makes you look as though you can't have anything to do with the muggles out there.
10. Bring your computer with you everywhere
It gives you a chance to do homework anywhere, or it gives you the chance to check social media on a larger device.
11. Wear glasses
For some strange reason, wearing glasses makes you look as though all you do is read books for fun and study.
12. Then let yourself go
And once you've spent the day pretending like you have it all together, you can go home and finally relax and realize you really have no idea what you're doing with your life.
