10 Things Every Tattoo Addict Can Painstakingly Relate To

Tattoo withdrawal is a real thing

Giphy

The next week you'll already be itching for another trip to the parlor.

The buzz of the needle is your favorite sound

Giphy

The minute you hear the sound, you know it's about to get real.

You're running out of places on your body for tattoos

Giphy

Your body is now a giant canvas for amazing art.

You're on a personal level with your artist

Giphy

You know their life story, hopes and dreams, likes and dislikes, and they know yours, too.

Tattoos can range from deep meanings to spur-of-the-moment designs

Giphy

What may have started as intricately thought out designs has transformed into getting a tat "just because."

You have gotten all of your tattoos from the same place

Giphy

When the artists see you walk in, they're already setting up a station for you.

Or your pieces are from different shops all over

Giphy

This is a great way to meet different artists and get permanent souvenirs from wherever you went.

Ladies, you've heard the line "How will those tattoos look in a wedding dress?"

Giphy

They're going to look amazing because I got them so they could be seen...

You're asked constantly what your tats will look like when you're old

I'll still look amazing, even in my nursing home.

When you're asked what you want for a present, your answer is money for a new tattoo

Giphy

Christmas, birthday, and everything in between, for any holiday where you receive a present, your wish is some $$$ for another trip to the shop.

The Daily Struggles of Being a College Commuter

morethanwheels

I've been in college for four years now. I spent half my time as a commuter and half as a resident so I've experienced both sides of the housing spectrum. One thing I've learned comparing the two is that my struggles as a commuter far outweigh anything I went through while living on campus. Commuters have to deal with the problems school brings along with a slew of other issues; I've filled up my gas tank in the worst kind of weather conditions and napped in random places in public more times than I'm proud to say of. This is a list of some of the most challenging aspects of being a commuter.

Things I Am Actually Going To Do This Semester

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

It's not all morning coffees and singing along to the radio.

You can't just go to your room to take a nap in the middle of your classes.

Having to spend all your extra cash on gas for your car.

Speaking of money, you probably don't have a meal plan so you're forced to scrounge up some change or mooch off of your friends.

It can be harder to maintain the friendships you make with people from class.

Finding a parking spot.

It can be harder to be involved on campus because between your one, two, or three jobs and school you don't have much free time.

When you try to be super involved on campus, it can kill your sleep schedule.

It's impossible to do homework at home, but staying on campus isn't an option sometimes.

There are surveys and events that you can't participate in because you're a commuter.

Group projects are the bane of your existence.

Traffic.

Your backpack rivals that of a survivalist trekking in the woods.

Driving all the way to campus to find a note on the door of your classroom saying class was cancelled.

Because have you ever had to endure grilling your foot on a George Foreman?

1. When he just wanted bacon from his George Foreman grill

2. When he had money (and Jan) issues

3. When he got upstaged at Phyllis' wedding

4. When he unintentionally saved Meredith from rabies

5. When he wore a "bisexual" suit

6. When he had to apologize to Jesus

7. When his GPS drove him into a lake

8. When he had to deal with Ryan as his boss

9. When he couldn't fulfill his most generous empty promise

10. When this happened

11. When he struggled with a X-Mas break up

12. When he had to defend his generosity

13. When he threw a classy Christmas party for Holly but she had a boyfriend

14. When he had to stand up to peer pressure

15. When Toby was "Toby-ish"

This isn't just for the single Pringles out there either, folks
