It is mid-February. Exams are coming in full swing, you're tired of the cold weather and getting sick, and the pre-Spring Break slug is hitting hard. Sometimes, we can all relate to TV show characters— they may not be real but they sure as hell feel our pain.
1. Waking up on Monday morning and just thinking...
Monday is the start of another week... which means hours of class, work, studying, tests, papers, and grocery shopping with no money. When does it end!?
2. When people sitting around you in class won't be quiet and you miss information that will be ~on the test~
There's always two best friends that won't shut up in class even if everyone's grade depends on it.
3. When you don't quite know the info on your test...
While you may have studied all night (or let this test slip through the cracks), we all have tests that you have no idea what's going on. Did I study this information at all? Did the professor even go over this stuff??
4. Getting ready for your lab like...
Gearing up for every lab including pants and closed toed shoes... only to take it off and have goggle marks around your eyes for HOURS.
5. Finding the answers to anything, ever, on Quizlet:
Whoever invented Quizlet, thank you, from all college students.
6. When the girl that always sits next to you in your 9 a.m. talks about how f*cked up she got last night...
Ya, girl cool, everybody loves a good time but you also do this *every* Thursday night and I'm tired of hearing how you got too drunk to hang out with Brad.
7. When mom keeps bothering you about grades, your future, coming home to visit, and the freaking weather...
Yes, mom, I will be home for Easter, and yes, I am going to class, and yes, I do feel the cold front that just blew through, thanks for checking the weather here, too.
8. Thinking about how broke you are...
Having less than $10 in your bank account is an all too often occurrence... ramen for the next week I guess?
9. When you took a class because you thought it'd be easy but got a C on the first exam:
Not only did you think the class would be easy, but you studied and felt confident after you took the test, and STILL barely passed. Um, what? This class isn't even for my major, why is it difficult!?
10. Trying to get yourself to eat healthily:
Among all the drinks and fast food and coffee, you know your body NEEDS some greens... but they're just not tasty or easy.
11. When your professor won't round up your grade:
Don't they understand that we have lives? And are taking like five other classes!?
12. Drowning in tests, bills, social life, trying to work out, significant others, drama... everything
Sometimes (all the time) it just gets to be too much... is it too late to drop out and become a stripper??
13. Feeling something is better than feeling nothing at all, right?
Have you ever experienced any of the following symptoms: No motivation, low energy, constant drowning feeling, no emotion? You might be.. dead inside!
14. Needing some 'me' time and listening to music that really puts you in the ~feels~
Listening to emotional music at the highest volume while driving at night will always be my go to. How does Drake and Taylor Swift always FEEL my heartbreak on a spiritual level?
15. When you've had a long week and need to unwind:
It's not called an 'alcoholic' until you graduate, right? Also is it really necessary to wait until the weekend?
16. With your friends, trying to figure out what to wear:
I don't know about y'all, but when I go out I try on at least five different outfits before I find one my friends and I agree on. Not too conservative but not too slutty, not too warm or cold, not too goth but not too young... Oh, the struggle...
17. Seeing your friend on the other side of the bar and just...
Best thing ever: going out with your best friends. Other best thing ever: seeing your friends when you're out and already wasted.
18. When at the bar and you and your pal are both dancing with people you mentioned were attractive at the beginning of the night:
Hot guys/girls for the win, right?? Always feels good when someone you find attractive gives you attention (even if it's not for the right reason).
19. The morning after a REALLY good night is just... confusing and fuzzy...
Remembering certain parts of the night and trying to fill in the rest is the ultimate puzzle. Also hearing stories about what you did and having no remembrance but still being really embarrassed is.. awkward.
20. And finally... when you just need to take the edge off...
