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've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

I don't think I say it enough...

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
