9 Things College Kids Do In Class When The Professor Isn't Looking

Netflix binging doesn't have to stop just because you're in class.

College students are the ultimate example of multi-tasking at its finest. We can balance doing every single one of these things all at the same time! We're such a skilled group of people. I know for a fact every college student in the entire world has done every single thing on this list, and if they haven't, good for you I guess?

1. Texting

If you have a MacBook, it makes texting in class all the more tempting, and all the easier. We're all guilty as charged of staring at our phones behind our laptops waiting for bae to finally respond or your BFF to text back with some of that juicy gossip she overheard.

2. Writing your Odyssey article

If the class is boring and easy AF, why not make it productive and get this week's article done?

3. Watching Netflix

Why stop watching Netflix just because you're in class??? Commence with the binging!

4. Online shopping

Who knew Amazon had such a cute selection of sorority apparel at a modest price? Should I get all my Christmas shopping done now? Who knew that a bank account could be drained so fast?!

5. Sleeping

Starting your day at 9 a.m. after going to bed at 1 a.m. takes a toll on the body, so feel free to catch those Zs. I'm sure the professor totally won't care and completely understands.

6. Scrolling mindlessly through Instagram

It's Adam and Claire's one year anniversary...so precious! Oh, it's another pic from Ashley, she must think we don't remember she's a bikini ambassador, or what her butt looks like! I guess I'll give them a pity like, because I'm an amazing human being and follower.

7. Doing other classes homework assignments

Forgot chemistry was due in an hour? Thank goodness you remembered to do it, you organized college student you! Hopefully, no important material is covered in the class you're in now. You'll just ask the smart kid next to you what you missed after class.

8. Watch and rewatch peoples' Snapchat stories, and then send snaps to keep your streaks alive

Why watch that random frat guy jump onto a table from an elevated surface once when you can watch, like, four times? And don't forget your streaks, because keeping them alive takes precedence over paying attention in class all day every day.

9. Actually learn

Surprise! College students learn in class, and it's not that uncommon. We take notes, pay attention, and pass our exams with flying colors! JK, we're not perfect at all, but we try for our parents.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
