15 Things That Are Way Too Relatable For College Kids

We all know it's true.

15 Things That Are Way Too Relatable For College Kids
The Huffington Post

These 15 things are just way too relatable for every college kid. From re-wearing dirty laundry to accepting that we have to take the L sometimes. But hey, at least we're all in this together.

1. Sleep is a luxury.

I truly believe that college today is way harder than it was "back in the day". Between work, classes, homework, clubs, internships, etc., there really is just no time for sleep.

2. You're either starving or stress overeating. There is no in between.

Let's face it. You can only cook about 5 things. This means you either go without food or stuff yourself while studying.

3. Sometimes you just have to wear dirty clothes.

Mom isn't here to do your laundry, so you like to push the limit on just how many times you can re-wear something.

4. Wanting to bang your head against a wall 75% of the time.

Contrary to popular belief, college life is really hard.

5. Your friends are getting married and you feel like you will be #foreveralone.

6. But some of your friends spend half their mornings with their heads in the toilet.

This makes you feel a little better because perhaps you have your life together a little bit more than you thought.

7. You have 38 hours of homework due by midnight, but there are only 24 hours in a day.

8. Sleeping anywhere on campus is perfectly acceptable.

We take what we can get.

9. Crying anywhere on campus is also perfectly acceptable.

10. Mental breakdowns have become part of your daily routine.

11. You have accepted the fact that you just have to take the L.

We try our best, but are not always prepared. We also enjoy having somewhat of a social life. That means we just have to take that L sometimes.

12. Although you have literally no time for anything but school, somehow you still find a way to binge watch Netflix.

13. Every single holiday (no matter how insignificant) is celebrated.

We have to have something to look forward to (and any excuse to go out gets us super hype).

14. If nothing else, college has taught you how to get ready in under 5 minutes.

15. It has also, above all else, taught you how to bull****.

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.

Whether you met your new love interest online, through mutual friends, or another way entirely, you'll definitely want to know what you're getting into. I mean, really, what's the point in entering a relationship with someone if you don't know whether or not you're compatible on a very basic level?

Consider these 21 questions to ask in the talking stage when getting to know that new guy or girl you just started talking to:

Challah vs. Easter Bread: A Delicious Dilemma

Is there really such a difference in Challah bread or Easter Bread?

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.
