As I continue to grow up, I constantly look for different ways to de-stress. Personally, I always try to go for comic relief. More often then not, I find myself watching "SpongeBob SquarePants." Like never before, I have seen the reason that "SpongeBob SquarePants" remains a favorite among the millennial community as well as the children of today. He consistently provides great comic relief and faces the same everyday problems we all face. After watching SpongeBob, every Tuesday and Thursday afternoon, I have come to realize his relevance in my life even after all of these years.
1. Squidward's attitude towards life is how all college students feel.
Let's be honest, we all know this is how every college student feels right about now. Getting out of bed every morning is a struggle, and everyday around noon I understand why I shouldn't have gotten out of bed. Squidward has somehow been the spokesperson for college students everywhere.
2. SpongeBob's driving is what we wish we could drive like when we have road rage.
Whether the car in front of you stops short, or you're driving on campus and the students crossing the crosswalk take 10-minutes to cross. Driving like SpongeBob is an everyday thought. Every. Day.
3. SpongeBob wanting to stay a child forever is how you feel everyday.
Wanting to be in high school again when your professor just assigned a 5-page paper, a final project and you're trying to apply for an internship. Being in high school would be very nice right about now. Or even just nothing at all, either would be great.
4. Wanting to have as much energy as SpongeBob when working at your dead-end job.
Seriously, we want to have as much enthusiasm as SpongeBob, but we are really just like Squidward. Nothing like working long hours and weekends to make you understand why you're going to college. An expensive piece of paper will provide weekends off and paid vacations.
5. At the end of the day, you just want to have friends like SpongeBob's.
You may have one friend who drinks too much or another who is too into their looks, but they are you friends and you love them regardless. They will always be your friend regardless of how opposite from you they are.
