As most students would agree, college is all about work hard and play hard. Some play harder than others but at the end of the day, everyone wants to make their parents proud. I often refer to Squidward as my daily spirit animal, here's why:

At the beginning of the year all is well:

But then classes start to pick up:

And your first huge paper is due in an hour, but you pull through:

Then your friends drag you out to a weird party to help you relax:

And they try to set you up with a weird guy at the weird party:

But inevitably you get a little too relaxed:

And the next day you go right back to stressing because you're broke and failing:

So the stress eating starts to kick in:

And stress acne:

But just as your mourning the loss of your good GPA/bank account:

Your parents come to the rescue and slip you some cash:

That you blow that very night on pizza:

And after eating 12 slices, you decide you're going to start working out again:

And you're going to try desperately to get your life together:

So you keep the study grind up for as long as you can before you go literally insane:

And just as everything around you turns to hell, you pull through with passing grades AND a social life:

Maybe you even get an A:

But you're just happy you passed and can relax for the summer:
