10 Times College Made All Students Say 'Yep, I'm Dropping Out'
Catherine Antalis

College is hard. If you are like me, working a job, participating in extracurricular activities, and always keeping busy, it can be a lot. There have been weeks when I've had three exams, a paper to write, and a bunch of homework due all on top of working two-three days-a-week. Usually, I can handle it all, but sometimes I want to just relax in my bed with a yummy cup of tea while watching Netflix.

Whenever I get in situations like that, the only thing I know how to do is scream out to all my roommates, "I WANT TO DROP OUT OF COLLEGE!"

So, here is a list of all the times you want to drop out of college.

1. When you spend weeks studying for a test and end up failing it

Sometimes, you have to live in the library for weeks to study for a huge test, and when you get a failing grade, it really puts a damper on your thoughts about college.

2. When you forget about a huge assignment and have to do it all the night before

There are some moments when you're so busy with one or two classes, you completely forget to do an assignment for another class and have to stay up all night to finish it on time.

3. When your final is cumulative of the whole semester

Tests are hard, especially when they cover all the information you learned over the semester.

4. When you have to miss out on a trip because you have to study

All your friends are traveling to the beach or another university for a huge event, but you sadly have to stay home and study for an exam that your professor assigned you on that Monday.

5. When your professor assigns a project over a break

Everyone has that one professor who does not care about life outside of class and assigns you a project over break and wants you to suffer.

6. When all your friends are going out but you have to finish up school work

Who doesn't love knowing all their friends are having a great time out while they get to stay home and do homework.

7. When it is raining on campus

Walking in the rain to class is the absolute worst.

8. When you have class after a huge (drinking) holiday

Class after Cinco De Mayo, seriously? Professors must know what the holiday entails.

9. When you realize how broke college makes you

Groceries, alcohol, trips, events, and many more things add up, especially when you don't even have the money to pay for them.

10. When you have to take summer classes and it takes up your WHOLE summer

A class that should take a full semester but is rushed through in six weeks over the summer = a sh*t ton of work you did not think you would have.

I was asked so many times why I wanted to go to a small school when a big university is so much better. Don't get me wrong, I'm sure a big university is great but I absolutely love going to a small school. I know that I miss out on big sporting events and having people actually know where it is. I can't even count how many times I've been asked where it is and I know they won't know so I just say "somewhere in the middle of Wisconsin." But, I get to know most people at my school and I know my professors very well. Not to mention, being able to walk to the other side of campus in 5 minutes at a casual walking pace. I am so happy I made the decision to go to school where I did. I love my school and these are just a few reasons why.
