12 College Inventions That Should Exist
mls.k12.nd.us

College is all about learning to manage on your own in the easiest way possible. We're in the 21st century. There is no reason why any invention that could possibly make life easier for all of us, does not exist yet. They say that our generation is lazy, that we will be the cause of the destruction of the earth. But what if we put all of our lazy brains together to create things might make our day-to-day lives more manageable?

1. Alarm Clock that shouts your GPA at you until you shut if off.

Because there are few things in life less terrifying.

2. Glow in the dark textbooks.

Now you can pull that all nighter without causing your roommate to throw a tantrum over the status of the light switch.

3. Phone case that doubles as a cupholder.

Okay, so apparently this already exists and I'm unsure as to why I don't have one yet.

4. Yelp... for people.

Ever had a bad experience with someone and felt as though it is your civic duty to warn the rest of the world about that person? Leave a Yelp review!

5. Contact lenses that project your notes.

Sounds like a major violation of academic integrity. I like it.

6. Body pillow that mimics the shape of a loved one.

Sick of being in a long distance relationship and just wanna cuddle with bae? Living away from home and missing mom? Customize a body pillow that is shaped like the one you miss.

7. Scantron Printer.

Save yourself a panic attack and print your own scantron at home. You'll never show up to another final without one again.

8. Campus Doppelganger finder.

Sometimes getting out of bed for that 8am lecture is a physically impossible task. Don't worry. Just log onto your campus doppelganger finder to match you with your true hero. He/she will go to class for you for a small price.

9. Shout rooms for rent on campus.

Just flunk a midterm? Recently concluded that your TA is actually Satan and wanna send her back to hell? Let it out.

10. Insulating lotion.

Sick of going out without sufficient clothing in an attempt to look cute, and ultimately realizing that hypothermia is a thing? This lotion will block any cold sensation on your body.

11. Dry shampoo for clothes.

Yup. It's exactly what it sounds like. No need to dig through your dirty clothes hamper anymore and pretend like you didn't wear the same exact things yesterday.

12. Fu**boy repellent.

I'm gonna leave it to science to figure this one out.

If I have learned one thing in my lifetime, it is that friends are a privilege. No one is required to give you their company and yet there is some sort of shared connection that keeps you together. And from that friendship, you may even find yourself lucky enough to have a few more friends, thus forming a group. Here are just a few signs that prove your current friend group is the ultimate friend group.

When it comes to television, there’s very few sets of on-screen siblings that a lot of us can relate to. Only those who have grown up with siblings knows what it feels like to fight, prank, and love a sibling. Ross and Monica Geller were definitely overbearing and overshared some things through the series of "Friends," but they captured perfectly what real siblings feel in real life. Some of their antics were funny, some were a little weird but all of them are completely relatable to brothers and sisters everywhere.

College is a great place to meet people, especially through Greek life. If you look closely at sororities, you'll quickly see there are many different types of girls you will meet.

1. The Legacy.

Her sister was a member, her mom was a member, all of her aunts were members, and her grandma was a member. She has been waiting her whole life to wear these letters and cried hysterically on bid day. Although she can act entitled at times, you can bet she is one of the most enthusiastic sisters.

Every kid in college and/or high school dreams of summer the moment they walk through the door on the first day back in September. It becomes harder and harder to focus in classes and while doing assignments as the days get closer. The winter has been lagging, the days are short and dark, and no one is quite themselves due to lack of energy and sunlight. Let's face it: life is ten times better in the summertime.
