Being seniors, we love to complain about our time left. We always talk with our friends about how we are over everything because we just want to enjoy our last few months. Here are some things that have gotten old to us.
1. Cover.
The concept of cover is to compensate for the underage kids not being able to buy drinks, giving the bar that business back. When you are 21, you are spending money on drinks so the concept of cover makes no sense and is frustrating. Also for some reason we have never been more broke in our entire lives then we are right now.
2. Try Hards.
We are over trying to be cool, we just want to have a good time. When people take themselves too seriously, we can't help but take you less seriously.
3. Walking.
You drive everywhere, especially in the winter. The campus is beautiful in the snow but also extremely annoying to walk on. Most of the time sidewalks are not actually shoveled. If you don't have a car, you try and hitch a ride anytime you can.
4. Packed Libraries.
That moment you decide to actually go to the UGL and get your life together but there are literally no tables.
5. Being questioned about your real ID.
We are 22 years old, that's enough. We took this picture within the last year, it really doesn't look like a fake.
6. People asking what you're doing after graduation.
Even if we do have a job lined up, we don't want to be reminded that we only have a few months left of college.
7. Burnett's.
I mean you won't pass up free alcohol but three years of drinking it can really take a toll on you. The smell alone can bring back terrible memories.
8. Terrible Hangovers.
Sometime shortly after your 21st birthday, you start getting earth shattering hangovers.
9. House Ranks.
You remember wanting to know who blocks with who and asking everyone you meet what house they are in. Looking back you are disappointed in yourself. Who truly cares about that stuff? No one.
10. Crowds.
The less people at the bar, the better. Sometimes we wish we could just be this guy.
11. Promoters.
I don't want to buy your unofficial shirts, go to Canopy Club, "Like" your page, or anything else.
12. Facebook group notifications.
It seems that Facebook groups are the only way that college kids in organizations and group assignments coordinate events.
13. Freshman year quad day emails.
That club that looked cool on quad day but you just never went to a meeting and you still get their emails four years later.
14. Scantrons.
Exams in general are frustrating at this point. We're trying to find jobs or get into grad school. The tedious process of scantrons gets more and more daunting with age.
15. Mandatory class attendance.
You mean we can't do everything from the comfort of our couch?
16. Small talk.
No time for that.
17. Acquaintances trying to come stay with you.
When that girl you had one class with in high school says she's coming for Unofficial and needs a place to stay.
18. Political beliefs on Facebook.
They are totally fine in increments, just don't overdo it.
19. People with jobs who won't let you forget it.
I actually get legit excited when my friends figure out their plans for after graduation, we all should. There is always one person who actually cannot stop rubbing it in everyone's face on purpose.
20. Bar bathrooms.
When you go home or go to a local restaurant because of the line or gross state that the bathroom is currently in.
The list can go on forever.
