The beloved characters of "Parks and Recreation'" just get college students on another level. They are unbelievably relatable. Sometimes you feel inspired like Leslie Knope or apathetic and annoyed like April but you definitely have Ron Swanson's eating habits and Tom Haverford's first world problems all the time.
1. When people ask you're single and not "talking" to anyone,
Pretending to be emotionless like Ron Swanson is the way to go. It's the safest and surest way to ensure that you keep undeserving people out of your life.
2. When you're losing your mind over the three exams and two papers due and need moral support from your squad,
And you know that you'll be right there with them next week when they're having their mental breakdown too.
3. When your professor offers extra credit despite the fact that they explicitly said in the syllabus that they will not give extra credit,
There is always a catch to extra credit, but you should do it at every opportunity anyway.
4. When someone takes the last of the french fries in the cafeteria,
Do they not understand that you've been dreaming about those fries since 10 a.m.?
5. When you have to give a presentation in class,
Honestly, it's surprising that you didn't drop the class when you found out that you had to do public speaking.
6. When you just have to reach the word count,
Hopefully your professor won't read all of it. Do they even have time to read 30 papers with 2,000 words each?
7. When you finally get paid,
It's like you're on top of the world.
8. When it's Sunday afternoon and you realize that you have done absolutely nothing productive over the weekend.
Sunday afternoons are actually the worst.
9. When you squad up and all of you slay,
Even Tom and Jean Ralphio would be impressed with your crew.
10. When you overhear any and all conversations that involve gossip,
You're also live texting it to your squad in case it's super juicy and relevant.
11. When you're running out of excuses as to why you're leaving class early,
You can't let Batman down again. Your professor has to take this excuse seriously.
12. When you basically say this everyday of your life,
Yeah, being an adult sucks a lot of the time, but we all know that it does have its perks as well.
