Chances are, if you attend Georgia College, you love it here. We have a beautiful campus full of friendly faces. There's plenty of ways to get involved- whether it's greek life, intramurals, or one of the various clubs offered. However, there are some universal struggles that all GCSU students can relate to:
1. It is impossible to walk outside at night without seeing a cockroach
The cockroaches out on the sidewalks used to gross me out so much. Now? They don't even phase me (okay maybe a little).
2. The arm workout you get when the handicap button on the doors are broken
Let's be real here, those doors are so heavy. Sorry to all the people behind me who I couldn't hold the door open for.
3. "Wait, you go to Georgia State right?"
It's GCSU not GSU!
4. Better yet, no one knows where your school is
"Where's that?", "Milledgeville", "Where's that??" Come on people, it used to be the old state capitol!
5. Your chance of finding an open study room is equivalent to winning the lottery
I am not exaggerating, it is actually impossible to find a study room that is free. Bonus points for the later you get into the semester.
6. The strict dress code of the Wellness Center
What do you mean I can't wear a tank top?
7. The limited number of washers and dryers in the dorms
If you plan to do your laundry on a Sunday, then forget it. All four washers are probably full again!
8. When you want to go shopping but your best option is the small
Okay so do you want to go to Rue 21 or TJ Maxx?
9. Finding a decent parking spot is impossible
Yes, I just walked half a mile from my car. No, there weren't any other spaces.
10. Trying to get to your class in A&S without being handed a million flyers
Yes, your event sounds very cool but I'm running late to class right now.
At the end of the day, we still love GCSU and are proud to call ourselves a bobcat despite some of its struggles.
