Attention one and all: college sucks.
We invest so much time in studying, crying, having mental breakdowns and panic attacks, and then repeat.
But most of all, we drink. Like a lot.
If you're 21, you can't wait for Friday to roll around so you can flock to the nearest bar, so you can haphazardly drink your sorrows away and spend the last dollar in your pocket.
If you're not 21, you hope that someone can score you a fifth of Burnettes, and get wasted playing waterfall in your freshman dorm. Shots feel as if they're an inevitable drink that you consume at one point or another.
I asked a ton of people to pick one shot that would describe their majors, and here's what we came up with.
1. Communications-- Liquid Marijuana Shot
Contents Include: Captain Morgan, Blue Curacao, Malibu, Melon Liqueur, Pineapple Juice, and a splash of Sour Mix.
Why?
It seems easy at first, but then gets harder as you go.
2. Neuroscience-- Four Horsemen
Contents Include: Jim Beam, Jack Daniels, Johnnie Walker, and Jose Cuervo.
Why?
You think you're good, and then all of a sudden, you're dying.
3. Health Science-- Lemon Drop
Contents Include: Vodka, Lemon, Sugar
Why?
You think one is enough but then you realize it's useless until you get more.
4. Engineering-- Straight Whisky Shots
Why?
The program is hard and you need something just as hard to make up for what you're learning.
5. Social Work-- Mind Eraser
Contents Include: Vodka, Kahlua, 7-up.
Why?
Just like the name says, sometimes you need to forget the difficult things you saw that day.
6. Political Science-- Passed Out On The Bathroom Floor
Contents Include: Bacardi Rum 151, Jose Cuervo Gold, Jager, Peppermint Schnapps.
Why?
We talk and theorize about the state of our political culture so much, that sometimes we too (and we do this often) drink so much we pass out on the bathroom floor.
