Unless you've been living under a rock, you've probably heard of the incredible host of the Tonight Show: Jimmy Fallon. Jimmy does loads of different sketches (Camp Winnipesaukee, Real People Fake Arms, Ew!, etc.), and more often then not, he perfectly encompasses what it's like to be a college student.
1. Going to the gym and comparing yourself to people who basically live there.
We're so mean to ourselves-- you can't compare yourself to Brock who's had that body since he was eight years old!
2. Honestly trying to take a good Snapchat selfie.
The effort is there, but you just can't seem to get that dang angle right!
3. Proving to yourself that you can, in fact, rock those heels.
It might only be in the comfort of your dorm room, and you might only last a few minutes before your feet start to protest... But gosh darn it, you'll rock those heels for as long as possible!
4. Waking up after you've had a solid night's sleep.
Alright, it doesn't happen very often, but that's why you're so hype when it does!
5. Finding out that you have a project, three exams, a presentation, and six DQs due on the same day.
It's painful, it's tragic, and we all need a minute before proceeding with the rest of the day.
6. When you get a new outfit you CAN'T WAIT to show off.
It might be tight pants, it might be a rad new sweater-- whatever it is, you're gonna strut your stuff for all the world to see.
7. Having those late-night jam sessions with your roommate.
Roommates are great for 30-second dance parties and late-night jam sessions!
8. Admitting how you actually spent your day.
You'd like to say that you did homework and were productive, but in reality, you spent the whole day scrolling through social media.
9. That brilliant moment when you finally prove your professor wrong.
You've argued, gotten other students to back you up, and finally you show your professor who was correct.
10. When high school tours clog up the food lines.
You've been dreaming of Chick-Fil-A all day long, you go to get in line and then... you find it overrun by twenty high school seniors (though it might as well be a million) who don't know how to efficiently order.
11. Someone else getting credit for your answer to a question.
You mumble the answer, then Brenda (who has waaay too much energy for this 8:25 lecture) yells your answer and gets all the praise. Wha'd'heck Brenda?
12. Trying to flirt... Like, really trying
You've had your eye on this person for weeks and you finally get the courage to try that pickup line... but then your dreams are dashed when you realize you don't have anything cohesive to say to them.
13. When your flirting actually works!
Turns out they really liked your feeble attempt and you scored a date! You go, Glen Coco!
14. Wearing the same pair of jeans for like, two straight weeks.
Laundry is expensive, these jeans make my butt look good, I haven't shaved recently... which excuse would you prefer?
15. Welcome Week be like:
Purple shirts, fanny packs, mini fridges, and flights of stairs galore.
16. Falling asleep in lecture and then being called on.
You're peacefully falling asleep... then you hear your name and are jolted awake. How rude!
17. Writing that paper you know you didn't do the reading for.
Professors actually expect us to do the reading before writing the paper? The nerve.
18. When your home team is actually doing well.
Hurrah! A winning team to cheer for!
19. "Wait, you're eating dining hall food again?"
Yes, yes I am. It might not be great, but I can't survive on coffee alone... trust me, I've tried.
20. Graduating and imparting your wisdom to your peers.
Toss your cap in the air and do a victory dance-- you did it!!
