If you are anything like me, when you hear the words "group project" come out of your teacher's mouth on syllabus day, your stomach starts churning. Those two words are the most dreaded words in my college career. No one does their part, you end up doing the whole project yourself, and 9 out of 10 times it's being done the night before it's due.

While you most likely want to get up and sprint out of the room right then and there, it sadly cannot be avoided. The teacher tries to tell you it's a valuable learning experience and that it will help you in the future, but we all know that's for sure false. So, instead of pretending I like these adult versions of educational play groups, here's a list of all the things I would rather do than a group project.

1. Eat the candy Dots.

2. Shave my legs with a chainsaw.

3. Accidentally like my ex-boyfriend's new girlfriend's Instagram pic from 2013.

4. Try to give a cat a bath.

5. Get braces again.

6. Eat nothing but lime Jello for the rest of my life.

7. Bite into a popsicle.

8. Have T-Pain write a paper for me.

9. Let my dad make my Tinder profile.

10. Have Nickelback play at my wedding reception.

11. Throw my computer out of a moving vehicle.

12. Watch Fifty Shades of Grey with my grandma.

13. Let OJ Simpson show me his knife collection.

14. Only shop at Aeropostale for the rest of my life.

15. Wash my face with jalapeño juice.

16. Fly to the dwarf planet Pluto with 50 middle schoolers.

17. Eat grass.

18. Host Thanksgiving dinner for the Kardashians.

19. Wear a python snake as a scarf.

20. Wear a leopard bodysuit and leather skirt to church.

21. Make the It’s a Small World ride at Disney World my permanent residence.

22. Stare at the sun.

23. Drop my car keys into a sewer.

24. Use balsamic vinegar as eye drops.

25. Put on mascara while driving down a brick road.

26. Eat a Lego.

27. Wear gauchos every day of my life.

28. Eat leftover salad.

29. Develop an allergy to chicken nuggets.

30. Have my debit card get stuck in an ATM.

Everyone who is in college right now, or has ever been, knows the struggle of pulling in the strings at the last second. It seems impossible, and you have to do a LOT of things in order to assure your future for the next semester.

April Ludgate, historically, is a very annoyed person, and she doesn't hide it. Of all the times that I binged and re-binged "Parks and Rec," her attitude relates more and more to me.

Ask friends of mine to name a quality about me, and one a lot them will point out the fact that I am almost always smiling. I like to laugh and smile -- not to quote Buddy the Elf in April, but smiling is my favorite! It is probably my favorite go-to expression. However, what a lot of people do not see is that I have my down days. I have days when smiling and laughing is a real struggle, or when I have so much on my plate that going out of my way to behappy takes more effort than I have stored in me. Be it a symptom of college and growing up or a facet of life, I cannot always be content.
