The end of my freshman year of college is coming to a close and I'm still only genuinely convinced of one thing: college is just a social experiment operating on a wide-scale basis. We're nothing more than a bunch of older kids struggling to keep up with routine and responsibilities and just fucking around as a result.
1. Seeing your roommate the morning after you have a raging hangover
I'm fine except that my head feels like white noise and static and getting out of bed seems like an impossible mission. Can we go get coffee?
2. Deciding if you're gonna go for that sixth shot before eventually saying "fuck it"
Bible quote: 1 tequila, 2 tequila, 3 tequila—floor.
3. Explaining to your roommate that you're up studying at 3 a.m. because you've procrastinated yet again
Just go back to bed and let me cry over the ten textbook chapters I have to read in the next four hours.
4. Wanting to skip the idiots on the Starbucks line that don't even know what they want to order
Please. You've been standing here for five minutes in silence. I just want to take my caramel latte and go.
5. The crippling depression that comes after a particularly disappointing and unenjoyable party
You ever just go to a party and almost immediately want to go back to your dorm and watch "The Office?" No number of times hearing "Gucci Gang" repeated on a loop will make me like it any more than I already do (which is not at all).
6. Swearing you'll actually study but then you find yourself taking Buzzfeed quizzes on which "Sex and the City" character you are
I mean, I'm sure my Psych midterm tomorrow is of greater importance, but I'm not going to rest until I KNOW I'm a Carrie and not a Samantha.
7. Realizing the Freshman 15 is a real thing and finally just accepting it
They say summer bodies are made in the winter, but I've been hibernating for the past six months.
8. Finally reaching the point where the weird shit your roommate doesn't faze you at all
Last night, my roommate and I Googled the pronunciation of porpoise and we wake each other up every morning with groans. Why? Because we love each other.
9. Getting tired of having to resort to Tinder for hookups, but the people you see on campus are just not an option
Connecting with people on campus is hard. Everyone's trapped in their own little bubble. Tinder is gross but at least you get SOME validation from it.
