College Struggles As Told By Crying Michael Jordan

Although it's cliche, the years you spend at college are some of the best years of your life. However, college life can be difficult sometimes. There are many struggles students face on a daily basis, and there is no better way to emphasize those struggles than through the human manifestation of all disappointments in history: Crying Michael Jordan.

At his Basketball Hall of Fame speech in 2009, Michael Jordan couldn't hold back tears as he reminisced on perhaps the greatest career in NBA history. Being inducted into the Hall of Fame is obviously an accomplishment, but years later Jordan's facial expression became the epitome of sadness. Crying Jordan's face is typically used for sports-related upsets, but it perfectly emulates the grief of college struggles.

5 Things To Do That Are Better Than Writing A Paper

Don't waste your time trying to write that paper when there are so many more interesting things you could be doing.

Writing a paper is never fun and is rarely rewarding. The writer's block, the page requirement, be specific, but don’t summarize, make sure you fixed any grammatical errors, did you even use spellcheck? and analyze, analyze, analyze.

Papers can be a major pain. They take up so much time and effort that by the end of the process you hate yourself and you hate the professor for making life so difficult. Questions of your existence start roaming in your mind. Am I even cut out for college if I can’t write a single paper? Am I even capable of taking care of myself if I lack the energy to open my laptop and start typing?

Now that graduation has just happened, or is right around the corner for some of us, it's time to start thinking about how we are going to take care of ourselves once we are on our own.
