Having to walk to class in college is already a pain, especially if you go to a large university. The only thing that can make your trek to class even less pleasing is getting caught in a rain storm. Unfortunately, there will always be another dreary rainy day on the horizon, and sometimes it's just easier to prepare for the inevitable. Here are seven things that will most definitely happen to every college student on a rainy day.
1. You will miss the bus.
Sometimes I think they drive away from people purposely fast on rainy days.
2. Your umbrella will break.
You might just be better without it honestly. Embrace the wet rat look and save your dignity.
3. A car will drive by and splash you with dirty road water just like in the movies.
If it happened to Carrie Bradshaw, it will definitely happen to you.
4. You will actually wake up and do your hair before looking outside.
If you're lucky, you'll achieve such a level of frizzy that they might name a Troll doll after you.
5. You will step in a puddle that doesn't look that deep until your entire foot is under water up to your ankle.
6. You will probably step in something that doesn't look like mud, but it will definitely be mud.
Maybe there will be a nice little Arnold hanging around to help you, too.
7. You're going to slip and fall at least once.
In the hallway, on the stairs, in the Starbucks line... it's going to happen one way or another. Thousands of students walking around the same shiny floors with wet feet just does not bode well for anyone.
Rainy days are guaranteed, and they're probably going to come on the one day that you have to give a presentation on the other side of campus, but hey, that's college for you. Stock up on working umbrellas, invest in some rain boots, stick a hat on your head, and try to handle it as well as Kuzco here. Well, maybe a little better than Kuzco.
