13 Reasons You're On The Struggle Bus

We're all aware of the ups and downs college can throw at us. One week you might feel like you work at the library because of how long you've stayed there due to test studying and other weeks you worry that you and your couch are one being because you haven't stopped watching Netflix for 10 hours straight. The struggle is real and even though our parents may not understand the fullness of our struggles, your fellow bus mates certainly do. All aboard!

1. You have an 8 a.m. and it's April. Enough said.

2. You somehow can't manage to go a single day without tripping in public.

3. You're wearing a white shirt so naturally you spill something on yourself.

4. You've missed a certain class for the past three weeks all because of different excuses.

5. Your debit card is literally about to break in half... Aka you're broke.

6. All-nighters are the only way you're going to pass your classes.

7. You have that one class where you literally need a 59.9 so you don't have to retake it.

8. You haven't washed clothes in weeks and you're totally okay with it.

9. You've been sleeping on the couch because your bed has too much stuff on it.

10. You thought you had a Scantron in your backpack and you sit down to take the test and what do you know... No Scantron.

11. You drop your phone for the hundredth time but it cracks on the day that you really need it.

12. You forgot you had leftovers in the fridge and now your room smells.

13. Your life seems to be falling apart but you're making it work somehow.

The worst part about being on the struggle bus is that instead of one little thing going wrong, it's a bunch of little things that go wrong all at the same time. Funny how that happens, isn't it?

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.
