20 Things You’ve DEFINITELY Said Since College Started Going Downhill

Every college student has been there. You reach the point in the school year where everything good starts to rapidly decline.

Homework piles up. You’re broke. Your summer bod that you worked so hard on has suddenly been altered from too many late night Dominos’ deliveries.

To prove that you’re not alone, here is a list of things that every college student has regretfully admitted to saying.

1. “I meant to go to bed earlier last night.”

Bedtime

It’s 2 a.m. already?!

2. “I desperately need a nap.”

Naptime

Preferably at least 4 hours.

3. “Should I skip class?”

The answer is usually no.

4. “I fell asleep in class again.”

I was just resting my eyes.

5. “Where did all my money go?”

Food, alcohol, something you most definitely did not need on Amazon.

6. "I'm starving."

But also too lazy to make my own healthy meal.

7. "I'll probably just order food."

Pizza

Dominos order online option is just too convenient to pass up on.

8. "Is it Friday yet?"

Wait, it’s only TUESDAY?

9. "I really need to stay in this weekend."

Catch up on homework and sleep. Who knows? Maybe I’ll read a book.

10. "Yeah OK, fine. I'll go out."

FOMO is real people and friends are very convincing.

11. "I'm never drinking again."

Roll Eyes

Yeah, OK.

12. "It's already midterms week?"

Where did the semester go??

13. "Wait, we had homework?"

Oops

Probably should have checked the syllabus.

14. "I'll just do that later."

Procrastination Nation.

15. "I should have done that earlier."

What’s the record for most amount of bullshit written in 30 minutes?

16. "I should probably work out."

Walking up that flight of stairs should not have made me this out of breath.

17. "I just want to lie in my bed and watch Netflix."

My bed looks sooo good right now.

18. "Let's go get ice cream."

Screw the gym!

19. "I'm too young to be an adult already."

I miss the days when my biggest responsibility was being the line leader once a month.

20. "I miss my mom."

In need of some mom hugs right about now.

11 Things Summer Nannies Can Relate To

There are plenty of obstacles that come when taking care of kids, but it's a very rewarding experience.

As a college student, being a nanny over the summer is both enjoyable and challenging. Underneath the seemingly perfect trips to the pool or countless hours spent playing Monopoly are the obstacles that only nannies will understand. Trading in your valuable summer vacation in return for three months spent with a few children less than half your age may seem unappealing, but so many moments make it rewarding. For my fellow summer nannies out there, I know you can relate.

There are a lot of really easy, common names in the U.S. and while many of those simple names have different spellings, most of the time, pronunciation is not an issue that those people need to worry about. However, others are not as fortunate and often times give up on corrections after a while. We usually give an A+ for effort. So, as you could probably imagine, there are a few struggles with having a name that isn’t technically English. Here are just a few…

Daydreaming

day·dream (ˈdāˌdrēm/): a series of pleasant thoughts that distract one's attention from the present.

Daydreams, the savior of our life in class. Every type of student in the classroom does it at least once, but most cases it is an everyday event, especially in that boring class -- you know the one. But what are we thinking while we are daydreaming?

Puerto Ricans. They are very proud people and whether they were born on the island or born in the United States by Puerto Rican parent(s). It gets even better when they meet another fellow Puerto Rican or Latino in general. You’ll know quickly if they are Puerto Rican whether the flag is printed somewhere on their person or whether they tell you or whether the famous phrase “wepa!” is said.

If it hurts now, it'll hurt again. Not because you're gullible or naive, only because you fall fast, hard, and you do it every time.

We fall each and every time with the complete and utter confidence that someone will be there to catch us. Now that person we SWORE we were never going to fall for has our hearts, and every time we see them our palms start sweating. The butterflies in our stomach start to soar and our hearts are entirely too close to bursting out of our chests.
