There are just some things we all don't like about college, whether we can control it or not.

1. Laundry

Giphy

We have threetwoworking washers in my dorm building and five working dryers. For the whole building.

2. Food Lines

Giphy

If you go to Ithaca College and try to eat breakfast lunch and dinner on the hour, I pray for you. The omelet line is long, the taco line is long, all the lines are long.

3. The food itself is... questionable

Either you like it, or you don't, there is no in-between.

4. The weather

media.giphy.com

It's ice cold in Ithaca 75% of the year and boiling hot the other 15%.

5. It's hard to make new friends halfway through the semester

media.giphy.com

I'm pretty sure I only knew four people max in each of my classes.

6. Grades

media.giphy.com

WHERE ARE THEY? WHY CAN'T I FIND THEM? WHAT'S MY GPA?

7. Buses home

media.giphy.com

(For those without a car) The coach buses home are a blessing and a curse, either you get a seat to yourself or you're sitting with a complete stranger for 6 hours straight.

8. Scheduling for the semester

media.giphy.com

*When HomerConnect crashes at exactly your registration time*

9. Every class is full

media.giphy.com

*When HomerConnect finally connects and all the classes and backups you planned for are full *

10. Loud people at night

media.giphy.com

I live in a dorm and I swear to God I don't need to hear you singing High School Musical's "Breaking Free" at 2 am when I have an 8 am to get to.

11. Cost of college

media.giphy.com

$$$

12. Party culture

media.giphy.com

The guys outside Upper Quads that bellow "Yeeah" to each other, the sounds of guys and girls throwing up.

13. No decorating

media.giphy.com

I got a door violation and I'm bitter. Alternatively: Just let me decorate for Halloween please!

14. All your essays are due at once

media.giphy.com

At the end of Finals week you'll have written 8 essays, taken 3 tests, and still have to pack for home and maintain a social life.

15. People who don't raise their hand in a hands-raising class

media.giphy.com

Sorry, just, there was one guy in one of my classes that was super obnoxious and would blurt out whatever he wanted whenever he wanted and... It got on my nerves.

What a bitter post, sorry not sorry. Sometimes you just have to vent ya know?

In honor of Mother’s Day, I have been thinking of all the things my mom does for my family and me. Although I couldn’t write nearly all of them, here are a few things that moms do for us.

They find that shirt that’s right in front of you, but just you can’t seem to find.

Take the time to thank that one friend in your life you will never let go of.

Thank You on wooden blocks

1. Thank you for being the one I can always count on to be honest.

A true friend will tell you if the shirt is ugly, or at least ask to borrow it and "accidentally" burn it.

2. Thank you for accepting me for who I am.

A best friend will love you regardless of the stale french fries you left on the floor of your car, or when you had lice in 8th grade and no one wanted to talk to you.

Everybody gets sick once in a while, but getting sick while in college is the absolute worst.

Being sick in college is really tough and definitely not a fun experience. Here are the 15 stages that everyone ends up going through when they are sick at college.

Do as I say, not as I do.

Your eyes widen in horror as you stare at your phone. Beads of sweat begin to saturate your palm as your fingers tremble in fear. The illuminated screen reads, "Missed Call: Mom."

Growing up with strict parents, you learn that a few things go unsaid. Manners are everything. Never talk back. Do as you're told without question. Most importantly, you develop a system and catch on to these quirks that strict parents have so that you can play their game and do what you want.

"Friends" maybe didn’t have everything right or realistic all the time, but they did have enough episodes to create countless reaction GIFs and enough awesomeness to create, well, the legacy they did. Something else that is timeless, a little rough, but memorable? Living away from the comforts of home. Whether you have an apartment, a dorm, your first house, or some sort of residence that is not the house you grew up in, I’m sure you can relate to most of these!
