7 Times The Fall Semester Makes Us Feel Like The 'Shocked' Meme

Let's be honest, none of us know what we're doing. If you don't feel like this guy on the daily... you're lying.

7 Times The Fall Semester Makes Us Feel Like The 'Shocked' Meme
Giphy

College is like a free trial for "adult life," and let's be honest, none of us know what we're doing. We all just kind of go along with everything and hope for the best.

So if you don't feel the level of shock that this guy feels on the daily... well then you're lying.

1. When you realize summer is over and move in is tomorrow.

Did you start packing yet? No. Are you mentally prepared to be a functioning “adult”? Hell no.

2. When your professor turns "syllabus week" into "syllabus twenty minutes, now let's start chapter one."

Yeah, that whole “sylly week”… not true. And if it actually is for you, you’re lucky.

3. When the professor says that attendance is included in the grade.

I’m paying to be here. You telling me that my showing up is mandatory makes me not want to show up even more than I already didn’t.

4. When the first exam comes around and someone in your class says they've been studying for two weeks.

And when did you start? At 11:30 last night. Are they over-achievers or are you just a procrastinator?

3. When the first exam finishes and everyone is arguing whether the answer was 25 or 23 but you got 698

Feel the panic slowwwwly start sinking in

6. When it feels like you've only been at school for two minutes but you suddenly have four midterms this week.

Time flies when you’re stressing out 24/7!!!

7. When it's already time for spring scheduling but you still don't even know where your fall classes are.

I planned out my class schedule for next semester to make me feel like I’m on top of things when in reality I have no idea what I’m doing for the classes I’m currently in now

The Daily Struggles of Being a College Commuter

It's not all morning coffees and singing along to the radio.

The Daily Struggles of Being a College Commuter
morethanwheels

I've been in college for four years now. I spent half my time as a commuter and half as a resident so I've experienced both sides of the housing spectrum. One thing I've learned comparing the two is that my struggles as a commuter far outweigh anything I went through while living on campus. Commuters have to deal with the problems school brings along with a slew of other issues; I've filled up my gas tank in the worst kind of weather conditions and napped in random places in public more times than I'm proud to say of. This is a list of some of the most challenging aspects of being a commuter.
