Being a college student is certainly a unique experience and sometimes it takes an unique person to be able to explain the struggles and accomplishments that come along the way. Behold, Michael Scott, regional manager of the Dunder Mifflin Scranton branch. Some of his words and moments as the "World's Best Bost" can easily relate to living life as a college student. Here are a few of the best:
1. Watching the professor put up the next slide one minute before class ends
It's a moment of panic, disappointment, and anger all mixed into one.
2. Finding out you passed a test you thought you failed for sure
It may only have been by one point, but that's progress.
3. Telling yourself that you're going to work all night, but then you watch "The Office" instead
It's not necessarily a bad thing, as long as you finished that paper that's due tomorrow.
4. Seeing your best friend after they skipped class the other day
I'm not mad at you personally; I'm mad that you left me in there all alone.
5. Sitting through any lecture
Big words at 8AM never make any sense.
6. When people are trying to get you to pay their tuition
It's a common joke among college students that should never be taken seriously.
7. Finally getting the chance to go out on a food run
Nothing is better than you and your bestie breaking free to grab some burgers and frozen yogurt.
8. Finding out the class you need is only offered at 8AM
This is a moment that should never be wished upon anyone, not even your worst enemy.
9. Trying to make the length requirements on a paper
You just have to add a ton of fancy words and hope for the best.
10. Remembering that part of your grade is participation and attentiveness in class
Suddenly you perk up, wipe the drool from your mouth, and scribble something in your notebook.
12. Trying to be the life of the party on the weekends
It's time to let loose, go crazy, and regret it all Monday morning.
13. Remembering that napping wasn't part of your schedule today
Because a 15 minute cat-nap always turns into an hour long snooze.
14. Making it to the end of the semester in one piece
Only a few tears were shed along the way, but you made it!
As many college students say, college is a series of ups and downs, good days and bad days, challenges and achievements. Whenever the pressure is getting to be too much, put down the textbook and flip on your favorite show. Maybe it's about a paper company in Scranton, and maybe it isn't. But take the time to relax, get inspired, and then hopefully find your way back to your work. If not, there's always tomorrow!
