11 Things That Are Only Acceptable in College

We've all been guilty of doing at least one of these.

11 Things That Are Only Acceptable in College

1.Wearing sweatpants to class.

If you're currently a college student, we are all guilty of this. There is always a point in our lives when we are just like, "F*ck it. I'm wearing sweatpants." Let's be honest with ourselves. This is practically everyday for us. And if you say you've never done this, you're lying!

2. Making catch phrases in movies a drinking game.

Ever watch a movie with your friends and drink every time a certain character says their catch phrase? I'm sure we all have.

3. Taking naps in the middle of the day.

I don't know about you guys but I'm always tired after my classes. I'm also known for taking multiple naps so I guess I'm the perfect example of this point. I can take an average of two to three naps each day. How is this possible, you ask? Don't worry about it.

4.Reading any book that's not a textbook.

I'm guilty of this as well. I will literally read a Dr. Suess book before I voluntarily choose to read one of my textbooks. Green Eggs & Ham is one of my favorite Dr. Suess books. Judge me.

5.Wearing Greek Letter t-shirts every day.

Now I'm not in Greek Life but I've seen this happen literally everyday. Greek Fraternities and Sororities love to show off their Greek Letters. And I think it's totally cool that they have so much pride for their Fraternity or Sorority... but not if they are sh*tty people. Majority of them are cool but you always have that one stereotypical as$hole.

6. Eating in your bed.

Moving on to number 6. Eating in bed. I'm pretty sure this is not just a college thing. This could probably seen as universal but I feel like you are less likely to get judged if you do it in college. I love me a good bowl of mac & cheese in my warm and comfy bed. It's totally fulfilling.

7.Fitting more than one person into a twin sized bed.

We've all tried to fit more than one person into a twin sized bed at one point in our lives. I don't think this needs to be explained in detail so we gone skip to number eight.

8. Staying Up All Night To Watch Netflix.

Don't be afraid of Netflix. Netflix marathons are the BEST! I remember I spent the whole night watching all the seasons of Criminal Minds, my all time favorite show by the way. And guess what? It was a Tuesday night and I was not ashamed. It's college. Sh#t like that happens here. Get on my level.

9. Chugging Down Monster or Red Bull To Stay Awake.

Depending on how boring your professor is, you might need a Monster or Red Bull energy drink to keep yourself awake. It's gonna happen multiple times in your college career where you will definitely have trouble keeping your eyes open and it's okay. That energy drink is there to catch you when you fall, especially when you have ten page papers due the next day because you procrastinated.

10. Bringing Your Laptop To Class So You Can Pretend To Be Taking Notes.

Once again, if you say you've never done this in a class before, you are lying. There was one class that I took that was literally the most uninteresting class to every exist in this world. I brought my laptop to class and watched Hotel Transylvania 2 on Netflix for fifty minutes. I typed my notes while also watching a movie. That's multitasking at its finest.

11. Eating Cereal at 3 in the Morning.

Eating cereal at 3 in the morning is a way of life in college. Don't question it.

I think the hardest thing about going away to college is figuring out how to become an adult. Leaving a household where your parents took care of literally everything (thanks, Mom!) and suddenly becoming your own boss is overwhelming. I feel like I'm doing a pretty good job of being a grown-up, but once in awhile I do something that really makes me feel like I'm #adulting. Twenty-somethings know what I'm talking about.

I went to a small high school, like 120-people-in-my-graduating-class small. It definitely had some good and some bad, and if you also went to a small high school, I’m sure you’ll relate to the things that I went through.

1. If something happens, everyone knows about it

Who hooked up with whom at the party? Yeah, heard about that an hour after it happened. You failed a test? Sorry, saw on Twitter last period. Facebook fight or, God forbid, real fight? It was on half the class’ Snapchat story half an hour ago. No matter what you do, someone will know about it.

Chandler Bing

I'm assuming that we've all heard of the hit 90's TV series, Friends, right? Who hasn't? Admittedly, I had pretty low expectations when I first started binge watching the show on Netflix, but I quickly became addicted.

Without a doubt, Chandler Bing is the most relatable character, and there isn't an episode where I don't find myself thinking, Yup, Iam definitely the Chandler of my friend group.

Working with the public can be a job, in and of itself. Some people are just plain rude for no reason. But regardless of how your day is going, always having to be in the best of moods, or at least act like it... right?

1. When a customer wants to return a product, hands you the receipt, where is printed "ALL SALES ARE FINAL" in all caps.

2. Just because you might be having a bad day, and you're in a crappy mood, doesn't make it okay for you to yell at me or be rude to me. I'm a person with feelings, just like you.

3. People refusing to be put on hold when a customer is standing right in front of you. Oh, how I wish I could just hang up on you!
