20 Things You’ve DEFINITELY Said Since College Started Going Downhill

“I need money, food, and about a 10-hour nap.”

20 Things You’ve DEFINITELY Said Since College Started Going Downhill
Kylene Ronayne

Every college student has been there. You reach the point in the school year where everything good starts to rapidly decline.

Homework piles up. You’re broke. Your summer bod that you worked so hard on has suddenly been altered from too many late night Dominos’ deliveries.

To prove that you’re not alone, here is a list of things that every college student has regretfully admitted to saying.

1. “I meant to go to bed earlier last night.”

Bedtime

It’s 2 a.m. already?!

2. “I desperately need a nap.”

Naptime

Preferably at least 4 hours.

3. “Should I skip class?”

The answer is usually no.

4. “I fell asleep in class again.”

I was just resting my eyes.

5. “Where did all my money go?”

Food, alcohol, something you most definitely did not need on Amazon.

6. "I'm starving."

But also too lazy to make my own healthy meal.

7. "I'll probably just order food."

Pizza

Dominos order online option is just too convenient to pass up on.

8. "Is it Friday yet?"

Wait, it’s only TUESDAY?

9. "I really need to stay in this weekend."

Catch up on homework and sleep. Who knows? Maybe I’ll read a book.

10. "Yeah OK, fine. I'll go out."

FOMO is real people and friends are very convincing.

11. "I'm never drinking again."

Roll Eyes

Yeah, OK.

12. "It's already midterms week?"

Where did the semester go??

13. "Wait, we had homework?"

Oops

Probably should have checked the syllabus.

14. "I'll just do that later."

Procrastination Nation.

15. "I should have done that earlier."

What’s the record for most amount of bullshit written in 30 minutes?

16. "I should probably work out."

Walking up that flight of stairs should not have made me this out of breath.

17. "I just want to lie in my bed and watch Netflix."

My bed looks sooo good right now.

18. "Let's go get ice cream."

Screw the gym!

19. "I'm too young to be an adult already."

I miss the days when my biggest responsibility was being the line leader once a month.

20. "I miss my mom."

In need of some mom hugs right about now.

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

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.

Dealing with the inevitable realities of college life.

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.
