The College Life As Told By Kimmy Schmidt

Being in college and trying to discover how to be an adult can be pretty difficult, but also incredibly funny and awkward. If you have not seen Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt on Netflix yet, I would watch it asap! Somehow it sums up the "adulting" experience in a matter of (so far) only two seasons. It is probably one of the weirdest, funny, quirky, yet somehow completely relatable shows that I have ever seen.

1. When you're listening to your professor during lecture

Because let's be honest sometimes we just really do not know what they're saying. But we get pretty excited when we do.

2. When your friends are making plans but your bank account says you're not invited

Being an adult means newfound responsibilities, or in other words: a crap ton of bills to pay.

3. When your friends ask why you can't go out to eat with them

There are always those friends who are a little better off than you. Try not to get too offended when they ask you why you can never go out to eat.

4. When your professor asks you a question in class but you were half asleep

Maybe you shouldn't have pulled that all nighter, or maybe you just need a lot more coffee.

5.When you're reading for your classes

The language of academia is so much fancier than our regular lingo. LOL OMG.

6. When you have zero motivation to do your homework

You try doing three essays in one day Geena Davis. It's not fun, okay!?

7. When you thought you understood a concept and then your professor explains it

This was the entirety of math class for me. This makes total sense.... oh wait.

8. How APA formatting makes you cite your papers


As educated, collegiate students, we are required to back up our arguments with citations. But this is how it feels like when we present them.

9. When you're not sure you like your professor

There is always that one professor that you're not quite sure about. Maybe their teaching styles are just a little unconventional, but sometimes you just have to push through.

10. Finals week

This is basically what we refer to as hell week. Somehow we have to conjure up all of the knowledge from the past fifteen weeks and translate them into correct answers


College can definitely be a struggle. A lot of us are just trying to navigate our way through the adult world on top of going to class and studying hard. Sometimes we just have to sit back, relax and binge watch entire shows on Netflix. Lucky for you this show only has two seasons so far, so you still have time for homework!

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.
