15 Things That Are Way Too Relatable For College Kids

We all know it's true.

15 Things That Are Way Too Relatable For College Kids
The Huffington Post

These 15 things are just way too relatable for every college kid. From re-wearing dirty laundry to accepting that we have to take the L sometimes. But hey, at least we're all in this together.

1. Sleep is a luxury.

I truly believe that college today is way harder than it was "back in the day". Between work, classes, homework, clubs, internships, etc., there really is just no time for sleep.

2. You're either starving or stress overeating. There is no in between.

Let's face it. You can only cook about 5 things. This means you either go without food or stuff yourself while studying.

3. Sometimes you just have to wear dirty clothes.

Mom isn't here to do your laundry, so you like to push the limit on just how many times you can re-wear something.

4. Wanting to bang your head against a wall 75% of the time.

Contrary to popular belief, college life is really hard.

5. Your friends are getting married and you feel like you will be #foreveralone.

6. But some of your friends spend half their mornings with their heads in the toilet.

This makes you feel a little better because perhaps you have your life together a little bit more than you thought.

7. You have 38 hours of homework due by midnight, but there are only 24 hours in a day.

8. Sleeping anywhere on campus is perfectly acceptable.

We take what we can get.

9. Crying anywhere on campus is also perfectly acceptable.

10. Mental breakdowns have become part of your daily routine.

11. You have accepted the fact that you just have to take the L.

We try our best, but are not always prepared. We also enjoy having somewhat of a social life. That means we just have to take that L sometimes.

12. Although you have literally no time for anything but school, somehow you still find a way to binge watch Netflix.

13. Every single holiday (no matter how insignificant) is celebrated.

We have to have something to look forward to (and any excuse to go out gets us super hype).

14. If nothing else, college has taught you how to get ready in under 5 minutes.

15. It has also, above all else, taught you how to bull****.

5 Things To Do That Are Better Than Writing A Paper

Don't waste your time trying to write that paper when there are so many more interesting things you could be doing.

Writing a paper is never fun and is rarely rewarding. The writer's block, the page requirement, be specific, but don’t summarize, make sure you fixed any grammatical errors, did you even use spellcheck? and analyze, analyze, analyze.

Papers can be a major pain. They take up so much time and effort that by the end of the process you hate yourself and you hate the professor for making life so difficult. Questions of your existence start roaming in your mind. Am I even cut out for college if I can’t write a single paper? Am I even capable of taking care of myself if I lack the energy to open my laptop and start typing?

sisters

I can barely remember back when I was the only child. Most would say it’s because it is extremely difficult to remember things as a toddler but I would say it's because I was bored until my sister came along. My mother always says how important the "sister bond" is and with every year that passes I realize how right she is. Instead of writing a novel about all of the wonderful things there are about having a sister I decided to list a few of them instead.

It is the time of our lives that we are beginning to enter the adult world and most of us, if not all of us, have no idea what we are doing. It's like starting a video game, but skipping the tutorial. We're all just running around aimlessly hoping we accidentally do something right that moves us along the right path. Now that graduation has just happened, or is right around the corner for some of us, it's time to start thinking about how we are going to take care of ourselves once we are on our own.

So, if you are aware that you’re a Starbucks addict as well, or maybe you need to check to see if you’re an addict, here are seven ways to tell.
