12 Annoying Things We Experience in a College Classroom
Jessica Mackay

We all have those classes in college that makes us say, "Why do I feel like I'm in high school?" For some reason even at the university level where we actually have to pay for our education which you'd think would make us care more, kids are still as immature and annoying as they were 5 years ago. Sometimes even the professors make us go a little crazy too. Whether it's the kids, the instructor, the assignments, or a combination of all three, every time I attend a college class, something, and it never fails, has me face-palming. Here's a list of things that make us roll our eyes continuously for the rest of the day and make us question what we did to have to sit through this 1 hour and thirty minutes of hell.

1. When the professor starts ranting about their life struggles.

I did not pay all this money to hear about all this personal stuff you've got going on and frankly, I don't give a damn. See what I did there? Ha!

2. When a kid starts arguing with the professor about irrelevant things.

Why are you talking back to them like a kid that thinks he's all Mr.Big Cheese and they're the parent.

3. When someone is smacking their gum or tapping their pencil super loudly.

Can you see the steam coming from my head? CAN YOU SEE IT?

4. The "I'm going to spend the entire class reading the syllabus to you" day.

I could have honestly just skipped class and read it myself in about five minutes.

5. When you ask the professor a question and they look at you like you're stupid.

There is a special place in hell for people like you.

6. When the weird smelly kid sits next to you and tries to start up conversation.

I'm not here to socialize and make friends. And especially not with you.

7. When that one obnoxious kid tries to be funny and makes a scene every class.

You're just embarrassing yourself now.

8. When the professor says that the first quiz is on Friday the first week of school.

There is really no caption necessary for this one

9. When you look at the clock and only 10 minutes has passed.

WHY

10. That one kid that answers every question and proceeds to ask even more questions.

Now I feel dumb and you my friend are just tooting your own horn.

11. When the class ends at 10:50 and it's 10:53 and you haven't been dismissed and your next class is at 11.

You realize my next class is on the opposite side of campus right?

12. When the professor makes a snide comment that was low-key directed at you.

You think you're slick don't you

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.

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.
