20 Signs You Should Do College Over Again
The Consummate Dabbler

They say college is the best four years of your life. While that's very true, no one tells you how you may feel after graduation, regardless of whether or not you're employed. For those who have happily accepted a full-time job, I congratulate you for your step into the real professional world.

For the others, it is completely OKAY.

Who says getting a job straight out of college will guarantee success in the long run? Nobody, that's who. Whatever your current situation is, it doesn't mean you can't have major college withdrawals and want to do college all over again.


1. You find yourself thinking about what could've happened if you picked another major

2. You're always scrolling through invite pictures and those with your sorority

3. You look at your past exams and tests and everything makes SO MUCH sense to you now than it did before

4. (continued) such that you want to retake all your exams and to know you'll nail them all

5. You can't bear with yourself deleting all the college assignments from your laptop

6. You cry at the thought of your favorite professor

7. You smile when you sift through piles and piles of your club/sorority/fraternity clothes

8. You know you will forever miss summer and winter breaks

9. You look forward being on campus with your best buds and reminiscing all the great times you had

10. You cry at the thought of having to pay your own food now moving forward

11. You miss, A LOT, free campus food

12. And that free *insert campus name* swag

13. You miss living with your roommates and best friends

14. You probably won't ever be able to have a kickback at your place just like you did in college

15. Think about the "better" internships you would've gotten

16. And how much more hard work you would put into your studies

17. You would relive graduation day over and over again

18. You don't want to move out and start becoming an adult

19. You miss the failures without consequences you can continue to make over and over again in college

20. You miss the idea of not having any major responsibilities except for studying and getting internships

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.

December... it's full of finals, due dates, Mariah Carey, and the holidays. It's the worst time of the year, but the best because after finals, you get to not think about classes for a month and catch up on all the sleep you lost throughout the semester. But what's worse than finals week is the last week of classes, when all the due dates you've put off can no longer be put off anymore.
