As we get older, we recognize things in the TV shows and movies that we used to watch when we were younger that we definitely had not noticed before. For example, The Lion King's plot is based off of Shakespeare's Hamlet, and there are quite a collection of sexual innuendos thrown here and there in Disney movies. Also, there are a lot of characters that we have grown to find ourselves able to relate to. You might be surprised to find out that two of those characters are Lilo and Stitch, but the amount of times that they have accurately expressed emotions all college kids relate to is uncanny.
1. When you go into an exam completely unprepared but still kill it.
2. Feeling entirely overwhelmed by the 2 essays, 4 math assignments, and 3 lab reports you have due all in one week.
3. When you've been around cafeteria food for too long and finally get to eat a quality meal.
4. When one of your classes gets cancelled because of the weather but none of your friends' classes do.
5. The amount of awkwardness that occurs when you're trying to make friends with your classmates.
6. When your professor assigns homework over the break and expects you to do it.
7. When your friend tries to force you to go to class and not skip for the 3rd consecutive time.
8. When your roommate catches you sneaking a third "midnight snack"...at 2 a.m.
9. When your roommate is gone for the weekend and you can do whatever you want to do, and be as weird as you want to be.
10. Trying to be proud of an assignment that you know is a hopeless cause.
11. Trying to let that cute kid in your class know that you're single and ready to mingle.
12. How it feels to try to keep control of your life, especially in college.
13. When you never have any money ever because you're a broke college student.
See what I mean? Who knew that a show about a young girl and her alien pet who have adventures in Hawaii could be so relatable to the life of a young adult whose biggest struggle is trying to make it to class on time? Thanks, Lilo and Stitch for actually understanding us.
