12 Relatable Struggles We All Have In College

Because it happens to the best of us...

12 Relatable Struggles We All Have In College
Emerson Preparatory School

College is some of the best years of our lives but it also really forces us to grow up and we will have to make sacrifices...like good home-cooked meals or your mom doing your laundry for you. Good thing we are all going through it together.

1. When you don't check your emails and get up and get ready for class just to see the sign on the door saying it was cancelled. And at that point it's your own fault but it's so annoying.


2. Wanting to get in shape and go to the gym but really not feeling it at all. Procrastination is what we're best at.


3. When all of your friends want to go out to eat and you have to be like...


4. Experiencing a professor from hell. We've all been there before.


5. Always questioning why you're so tired and then remembering you haven't been sleeping. And for like no reason at all.


6. Wearing the same clothes for two weeks just because laundry takes time, money and effort. And we can't afford to waste all three of those things.


7. Losing documents or your computer crashing or things just aren't working out. The worst.


8. Missing your family back at home while you're away. Because they are sometimes annoying but we love them to death.


9. Missing your pets while you're away. Because of course...they are our everything.


10. Not having any money for anything. Ever...the term 'broke college student' has never been more relatable!


11. Not being sure whether to cry or scream or all of the above. Because it happens to the best of us.


12. Not having mom around. Because whether it be that we're sick or just need her for anything, not having her around just sucks.

When you were little, your parents probably told you television makes your brain rot so you wouldn't watch it for twelve straight hours. However, I feel we can learn some pretty valuable stuff from television shows. "The Office," while a comedy, has some pretty teachable moments thrown in there. You may not know how to react in a situation where a co-worker does something crazy (like put your office supplies in jello) but thanks to "The Office," now you'll have an idea how to behave ifsomething like that should happen.

Here are just a few of the things that religious Office watchers can expect to learn.

High School And College Sucked All Of The Fun Out Of Reading

Books were always about understanding for me, about learning the way someone else sees, about connection.

High School And College Sucked All Of The Fun Out Of Reading

I keep making this joke whenever the idea of books is brought up: "God, I wish I knew how to read." It runs parallel to another stupid phrase, as I watch my friends struggle through their calculus classes late at night in our floor lounge: "I hope this is the year that I learn to count." They're both truly idiotic expressions, but, when I consider the former, I sometimes wonder if there's some truth to it.
