Lately, I've been getting a little too deep into 'The It Crowd,' a show that honestly resonates with me on a spiritual level. Two awkward nerds and a woman faking it until she makes it? Honestly iconic. And there's definitely plenty of moments that resonate with me as a fellow awkward nerd just trying to make it through college.
1. When your life's falling apart slowly but you just keep going about your business
You gotta do what you gotta do, and you gotta ignore what you gotta ignore.
2. And then when what you're doing is falling apart too
One more essay? With multiple research articles? That's...that's fine.
3. When you leave your dorm in the morning after a long night of studying/partying/Netflix binging
Hey, the sun is cruel. We all know this.
4. When your squad is awkward and doesn't know how to deal with social situations
There's a reason I don't regularly go to parties. And this is it.
5. When you have to get up for your 8 a.m. and someone tries to be social before you've woken up
Mornings just aren't easy.
6. When your computer crashes and you have to submit something online in the next hour
Listen, computer. Take a moment and think about what you've done while I cry over the fact that my discussion board won't get done.
7. When the "Freshman Fifteen" hits too hard
Honestly? Who has the time?
8. When your presentation in front of the class goes totally wrong
Hey, my life's falling apart, this might as well too.
9. When all your classes have big essays due and high-stakes tests at the same time
And sometimes it isn't even finals week. What fresh hell is this?
10. When you've stayed up too late getting things done and you're tired and emotional
Just don't talk to me about anything if I have less than four hours of sleep.
11. When your professor asks you to do pretty much anything online-based and you're too awkward to ask for help
Listen, I'm awkward. So I fake it till I make it.
12. When you're so dead inside you couldn't care less about the imminent embrace of death
Did someone say: finals week?
13. But finally...you finally get confident and decide you're gonna get s**t done.
College can get crazy, but ultimately you're gonna get through it with that degree! Hang in there!
