The question comes up every year, what do you give up for lent? There's the stereotypical desserts, coffee, or cursing, but is that really helpful on a college campus? Instead, students should consider sacrificing some of these vices that we all seem to give into more often than we like to admit.

1. You can't remember your last day off.
Maybe it was three weeks ago. Oh, and you had to request the day off because you had a doctor's appointment.
2. Whenever someone asks to hang out, you're working.
Honestly, don't even bother inviting me places. You already know what the answer will be.
3. When you do see your friends, you're in a "treating mood."
You've managed to save so much money that when the bill comes to the table, you treat everyone to dinner. Finally. Something to spend your money on.
4. You work so much you don't have time to spend the money you're making.
You've casually spent maybe $3 total this week considering you've only had enough time between work to grab a coffee...once.
5. You're too tired to function when you aren't working.
Finally, a day off and the only thing on my mind is how long I can sleep today. Again, don't even bother texting me because I'll be too tired to move.
6. Finally seeing your friends and having way too much to catch up on.
You are with the group again and suddenly you've realized everything that you missed since the last time you've been together, which was more a month ago. Oops!
So, it's time to stop working so much and take time off to enjoy what really matters: the people we surround ourselves with.
1. “When I first met you, I thought you were a b*tch.”
I get it, my face is less than welcoming and now that we’re friends you think it’s cool to tell me that when you first met me, you thought I was the wicked witch of the west. Why can’t you just lie and tell me that when you first met me you thought I was hilariously funny and devilishly good looking?
2. Somebody asks you if you’re mad at them at least once a day.
No, I’m not mad at you. This is just my face.
3. You always look unamused. Even when you are very amused.
Your body may be saying, “Justin Bieber concert,” but your face will always say, “Taking an economics midterm.”
4. Anna Wintour is your spirit animal.
Because she makes your b*tch face look like a straight up smiley face.
5. You are never approached by people who are tabling on campus.
Nobody on campus is going to stop you to ask if you’ve voted, are registered to vote, would like to sign a petition or if you want to join the dance club. Nobody.
6. You have to practice smiling before you get your photo taken.
Sitting in front of a mirror and practicing your most natural smile can be a daunting task.
7. The word “judgmental” is thrown at you on the daily.
(Judgmental is code for b*tch.)
8. You make people visibly uncomfortable in section by glancing at them.
You may be very interested in what the girl behind you just said in section, but by staring at her, you just gave her mad anxiety.
9. Your parents thought that this was just part of a teenage phase, but this is actually just your face.
You’re 20 and your face is still as sour as can be. Sorry Mom and Dad.
10. Your face could get you out of jury duty.
Your face reads, “I have no mercy.” Nobody wants you on jury duty.
