College is wonderful, but it can also be really difficult. Attempting to manage the various amounts of homework, studying for test and trying to leave time for food, friends and sleep can be exhausting! There are days when all I want to do is throw on some sweats, crawl into bed and watch countless hours of television without ever having to move. Well, if food is involved then maybe I'll get out of bed, but nothing else would make me move! One of my favorite shows to watch is "Will & Grace." Every single time I watch it, something reminds me of a typical week at college! So here's my list of things that happen in college brought to you by the amazing cast of "Will & Grace."
1. Trying to make plans
In all the craziness that is college, you barely have time to do things that don't relate to school. Seeing friends and actually having time to get together can be quite difficult.
2. Celebrating when you have free time
Between the countless amounts of homework, tests, works and various commitments, free time really isn't a thing. When you do have a little bit of free time, you celebrate!
3. Studying for a test
Studying can be very tiring, and after a while, you reach a point where you must take a break! You've got this -- at least you think so.
4. Actually taking a test
You sit down at you desk, and the professor hands you a test. You say a little prayer and then look down at the paper, turn a few pages and you're like "Yeah, I got nothing." If you stare at the problem a little more, the answer might come to you -- or it might not.
5. Sleeping
Getting enough sleep is rare in college. Never wake someone who is in the middle of an oh-so-important nap unless they ask you to wake them. It will not end well.
6. Realizing you're late
Just when you think you have nothing else to do, you remember that you needed to be somewhere five minutes ago. Whether that's class or a meeting, you are always moving. Keep it up!
7. Emotions are a real thing
In college, it is perfectly acceptable to be happy, sad, angry and tired all in the same day. Just don't take it out on others.
8. Food understands
It is just one of those days. You either got your test back and see that your grade is now at the bottom of the ocean or you just had a really bad fight. Food understands; it will make the pain go away.
9. You really should be studying, but look, another episode
You find yourself in the same position in your bed as you were three hours ago; computer in your lap with your eyes glued to the screen. Netflix is great; it just helps pass the time -- all the time you could and should use to study.
10. Being an adult is hard
Don't you just wish that you could stop being an adult for a day? While I'm sorry to tell you that you can't stop adulting, remember to take breaks and enjoy the little things in life amidst the hard times.
11. Finding your lifelong friends
Even though it is rough, college is where you find your friends for life. Enjoy all the time you get to spend with them; you will make the greatest memories!
