7 Things College Students Are Sick Of Hearing

I cry myself to sleep a lot, I forgot to eat sometimes, and I binge watch Netflix shows more than I do my homework, but it's fine. Everything's fine!

The holidays are the best and the worst when you're a college student. Getting home cooked meals and quality time with your friends and family are always amazing, but getting asked all of the awkward questions about anything and everything by family members is the absolute worst.

These are some of the things we college students are sick of hearing, during the holidays and just in general!

1. What's your major?

I'm pretty sure I've explained this to you about sixteen times, Aunt Karen.

2. What are you planning on doing with that major?

I'm going to use my journalism degree and hopefully become a news reporter or write for a publication! And no, Uncle Joe, I'm not going to be a cashier my whole life.

3. You got a special someone, yet?

Yes, Aunt Carol. We've been dating for almost a year and you've met him like four times...

4. How's school going?

I cry myself to sleep a lot, I forgot to eat sometimes, and I binge watch Netflix shows more than I do my homework, but it's fine. Everything's fine!

5. Are your friends nice?

My friends are the absolute best! Here's a picture of us at Taco Tuesday, us at the fountain on campus, and us eating Taco Bell after every lecture on Tuesdays and Thursdays!

6. I can't see a lot of your pictures or videos on Facebook. Why is that?

I don't want to post videos of me running around campus wine drunk during darty season, Kathy.

7. Do you like college?

LOVE IT!

So even though we're sick of hearing these questions, we sure do love talking about all of the fun we're having in school!

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
