College life is crazy, fun, frustrating, and if you're like me, a time filled with procrastination. There are days of adventure, days of laziness and a very real lack of sleep. College is a time for self-exploration, sometimes bogged down by the frustration of due-dates and awful roommates. It is challenging, but rewarding all in one package.
1. That time you forgot to save the document and your computer froze.
Don't worry buddy, it happens to the best of us. Despite the constant lectures to always save before you do anything, you still live life on the edge. And well, it's risky business.
2. When you've already made a 2 a.m. Denny's run this week and it's time for a change.
Because what better time is there to go get food and when you live in Arizona, you're never far from a Mexican restaurant.
3. When it's Sunday and you have three essays due by 11:59.
Yet somehow I manage to finish them in time. College has transformed me into some kind of super procrastinator, but not everyone possesses the same powers. Kids, don't try this at home.
4. When your roommates go somewhere without you.
It's probably nothing personal, but I am still slightly offended. "Would you have wanted to go?" Probably not but you didn't bother to invite me either.
5. When your professor mentions something from the reading you were supposed to do.
We've all been here at one point or another. My advice to you is to maybe actually do the reading next time. Or take a nap. Naps are nice.
6. When your roommates are being loud and you are trying to sleep.
Sleep is a precious, rare commodity. Don't poke the sleeping bear. The sleeping bear will devour you whole.
7. When the week is finally over.
Balancing a job, a social life and grades is a lot to handle.
8. When you should be sleeping, but have a heart to heart with your roommates instead.
Because no matter how much you guys get on each other's nerves at the end of the day you still love each other. The awesome thing about living in a dorm is that every night is a sleepover with your best friends. Unless you get an awful roommate in which case, I'm sorry and I feel your pain.
9. When you try and explain what college has been like to your mom.
Filled with work, essays, adventures, not enough sleep and entirely too much caffeine. There is no greater point of anticipation than the week before break.
10. When you have to read for a class that you hate.
Or maybe just take a nap instead.
