10 Best Feelings You Have as a College Student

When I googled the definition for college, it came up as an education institution or establishment. But, if you're currently a college student, like myself, it is so much more than that. Exams, papers and mediocre dining food are just a few aspects that truly define your experience as a college student.

Even though I haven't been in college for nearly long enough to form a well thought out opinion of what college means for my future, I have had many experiences so far that really define what being a college student means.

When we come home for breaks or just to visit your family, I can almost guarantee that someone you know will ask you the infamous question, "How's college?" But, if you're like me, you'll get a text from your parents every few days asking how your day was and just a general "How's it going?" And, almost always, the highlight of your day doesn't revolve around the important things that most adults talk about on the daily basis. But, hey, it's not like we can help it. We have to live up to the title of "Broke College Student" somehow.

So, in honor of Finals Week coming up and the constant stress that we are all going through, here are the top 10 best feelings that every college student has.

1. Finishing a long-awaited assignment.

2. Waking up from a nap and feeling refreshed.

3. Seeing a dog on campus.

4. Getting a care package.

5. When you pass an exam you stayed up all night studying for.

6. When you finally see your parents after a few stressful weeks .

7. When you get let out early.

8. Getting the "Class is Cancelled" email .

9. Doing laundry by yourself and finally not having to wear the same sweatshirt you've been wearing all week .

10. Finding that you have more than $5 in your bank account.

It happens to all of us, the weeks between Thanksgiving and Christmas the catch up with you.

Thanksgiving Break is most likely everyone’s favorite break during the fall semester. You get to go home and reminisce with all your high school friends. That diet you’ve been on for the past month goes out the window, and you get to eat until you put yourself into a food coma. There’s no rush on homework and you can just lie in bed and Netflix to your heart’s content. To me that sounds like an ideally wonderful break, and totally stress-free.

Even Shonda Rhimes, winning creator and executive producer of the hit TV shows Grey's Anatomy, Private Practice, Scandal, How to Get Away with Murder, and The Catch agrees that relationships with fictional characters are real. In her book, The Year of Yes she states, "I have spent more time with Meredith and Christina then many of my actual friends...When you watched TV, even spending a full hour with Christina once a week, you were likely spending more time with her then you spent with most people in your life. That relationship was real."
