If you're alive, you've probably watched SpongeBob. But, you may not have realized how relatable it remains no matter how old you are. We may not be in their "target audience", but you never grow out of SpongeBob. College students, especially, can relate to many of the themes in the show. Here are some of the SpongeBob moments that I found the most relatable for us college students.


1. Breathing, $1.00

Okay, we all know college is expensive, no matter where you go, so I figured this was a good place to start.

College bills are RIDICULOUS (even with a scholarship)!


2. All-Nighters

You know you've had those nights when you've either saved work till the last minute, or just didn't have enough time for the assignment. The all-nighter doesn't discriminate, no matter what our reason, you still look/feel like this:


3. Best Paper Towels in Town or Around?

Okay, so you're out on our own for the first time in our lives, and you never realized all the things that you took for granted. For example: "How do I use a washing machine?" or "Do I get the best paper towels around or the best paper towels in town?"


4. Nothing? Check.

It seems that all college kids have a set amount of time that we need to spend procrastinating before we actually do something.


5. "Can I be Excused for the Rest of My Life?"

So maybe you're not about to get pummeled by the new kid in class, but you've definitely had moments where you've wanted to ask this question. (Finals week anyone?)


6. Regret

Let's face it, sometimes you get a little sentimental and wish you'd stayed at home.


7. "I'm Ugly and I'm Proud."

Anything goes for an 8 am class. Pajamas? Hair half up? I think college kids have a general understanding that no one looks their best at 8 am classes, so just rock it.


8. Marking Your Territory

Because somehow people think it's okay to eat our food even though you're a poor college kid.

Some punk: "Hey, can I have a fry?"

Me: *takes a bite out of each one*


9. 404 Error: Future Not Found

You know that moment when you got a few grades that weren't up to par, and you accepted the fact that you had no future, and are going to work in the fast food industry for the rest of your life? Yeah, this is that moment.


10. That's Due Tomorrow, Isn't It...

When you've successfully put up a mental block for an anxiety-provoking assignment until the night before it's due, and you're about to fall asleep and:

"It's due tomorrow, isn't it?"


11. Coming on too Strong

When you try to make new friends (especially as a freshman), sometimes you find that you've become Patrick as a chocolate bar salesman.

"I love you."


12. Toast...

Sometimes, you're this guy. You know what I'm talking about. Everyone's in a deep discussion about something in class, and you try to participate and you end up looking like toast guy. You're the only one who doesn't know what's going on.

Various other fish: "Ghost!"

This guy: "Toast."


13. Confidence Level= -4

This needs little explanation. Sometime college just gets you down. you try to play it cool, but you're really just kind of dying.

"I'm not always as confident as I look."

14. Procrastination Part Two

You make yourself feel better and more productive by getting arbitrary things done.


15. I'm Done Adulting!

You may remember this moment when, after spending an entire episode trying to convince everyone that he's an adult, bursts through his grandma's front door and proceeds to have a break down saying he wants to be a kid again. But isn't this really just a picture of each one of us when we open the door to our room?


16. Hey, a Free Gym!

So this is what a "gym" looks like.

Yeah...


17. "Hello, I like money."

By now you anticipate your relatives asking what you want for holidays, so you've just begun introducing yourself like Mr. Krabs does right here.


18. Interviews

Just one question: how do I look, sound, act, and breath professional?



19. Getting a Good Grade On a Paper

*makes battle cry, tongue noise*


20. Roommates

For those times when you get back to your room, and your roommate invited the entire western hemisphere over to chill.


21. The Abrasive Side

When you got an hour and 27 minutes of sleep last night:


22. "Aw, shucks."

You when your professor says they like your work.

Bonus: they say it in front of other people.


23. Finals Week.

Need I say more?

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.
