As we get closer to the anticipated Thanksgiving break, let's reflect on a couple things we all appreciate throughout the year.
1. College Student Discounts
Chegg. Amazon Prime. Apple. Spotify/ Hulu. Best Buy. Cinemark or Regal. The Wall Street Journal. Retailers. Student discounts are the real MVP.
2. Venmo
Seriously, it makes life simpler.
3. Any caffeinated drink
Pick your poison for those late nights and early mornings. My go-to is and will always be coffee.
4. Any university event that provides free food
FREE FOOD!
5. Friends that bring you food when you're stressed
Those are the true MVP's.
6. Professors that bring food to class
You know it's going to be a good day when this happens.
7. The "typical college kid" stereotypes that justify your dumb actions
#collegelife
8. When your mom or dad sends you a picture of your dog(s) from home
*tries not to cry in class at how cute your dog is.
9. Being an "adult": running errands and getting your life in order
Sometimes...
10. But, also when you call your parents for help when your check engine light comes on and you don't know what to do... They will.
This has happened to me several times, and I still have yet to learn.
11. An hour or two of free time to chill, eat, nap, or catch up on Netflix
Or all at once. I've done it.
12. Cancelled classes
More time to sleep in. Or extra study time for an exam.
13. Exam Curves
BLESS THE CURVE.
14. Bonus points for course evaluations
Even if you wrote a brief review on what a subpar lecturer they were, you still got the points.
15. Extensions on assignments.
Because let's be honest, you were probably going to push it off anyways.
16. When the professor provides the prompts for your essay exam
Maybe I can get my studying organized for once.
17. Professors you can actually talk to and not be uncomfortable
Those casual conversations are so reassuring.
18. When the Quizlet has everything you need to know for the exam
Praise be students from previous years.
19. When the professor decides to give the class a break
A well-deserved one, that's for sure.
20. The freedom to chose and organize your schedules
Registering for classes is not a fun task, but at least there's one little luxury.
21. That moment when your schedule turns out exactly how you had hoped
This is rare, but it happens.
22. Getting into a class after being on the waitlist for what felt like years
The stress lifts off your shoulders!
23. Actually getting the GPA you wanted
Again, rare. But if you strive hard enough maybe you'll get a decent expected one.
24. Friends that actually care about your well-being
No need for fake friendships, we're all struggling here. Let's support one another through life.
25. Friendsgiving
The perfect excuse to stay home with friends and eat all the food you want without guilt.
26. Long-distance buddies
Calling them up to escape university life.
27. Fall Back
That extra hour of sleep was much appreciated.
28. Cooler weather
No more sweating on your way to your next class.
29. Sweatshirts
Every day in college is a lazy day.
30. Seeing dogs around campus
I want to see and pet ALL the dogs.
31. Therapy dogs
The best stress relief.
32. The upcoming breaks
Thanksgiving and Christmas Breaks, here we come!
33. Home cooked meals when you finally get to go home
Too good.
34. Actually striving towards your future
Instead of constantly thinks of what you want to do, you get to put it into action.
35. University has become your second home
A home away from home.
