9 Moments You'll Totally Understand If You Swear A Lot

NBC

As a wise woman once said, "I love Jesus, but I cuss a little" and I feel that deep within my soul. When I say a little, I mean a lot. I don't know when I started speaking the devil's language, but I like to think I've turned it into an art form. Living life as a potty mouth can be tricky sometimes; here are some moments I'm sure we have all run into at some point:

1. Anytime someone tells you to watch your mouth

I'm an adult. I can do what I want. I mean, I'll stop because I hate confrontation but only because it was MY CHOICE.

2. The first time you accidentally swear in front of your parents

It sends you through a lot of emotions: fear, regret, shame. Will you be taken out of the will? Do you just act like you didn't do anything?

3. The 458th time you "accidentally" swear in front of your parents

Honestly, who's surprised now? I mean, I'm sorry, mother, never again.

4. When you find out one of your new friends curses just as much as you do

What is the f*ck up my friend?

5. When you drop the F bomb around a new group of people

WAS THAT OKAY? SHOULD I HAVE DONE THAT?

6. When you're around kids and you just CANNOT DO IT

You're doing whatever it takes to not drop a couple of bombs. Now's the time to start getting creative with your language.

7. When someone tells you that cursing "isn't cute"

Do you think I'm doing this because I want to be cute? Unless you're my mother/any other family member, hush.

8. After a long day, you come back to hang out with your friends and just B*TCH together

Let it out; you deserve it. Being polite and respectful is hard sometimes.

I should probably work on my mouth, but what are we going to do? I hope other people found these moments just as #relateable as I did!

Or at least try to do.

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.

December... it's full of finals, due dates, Mariah Carey, and the holidays. It's the worst time of the year, but the best because after finals, you get to not think about classes for a month and catch up on all the sleep you lost throughout the semester. But what's worse than finals week is the last week of classes, when all the due dates you've put off can no longer be put off anymore.

Top 20 Thoughts College Students Have During Finals

The ultimate list and gif guide to a college student's brain during finals.

University of Vermont

Thanksgiving break is over and Christmas is just around the corner and that means, for most college students, one hellish thing — finals week. It's the one time of year in which the library becomes over populated and mental breakdowns are most frequent. There is no way to avoid it or a cure for the pain that it brings. All we can do is hunker down with our books, order some Dominos, and pray that it will all be over soon. Luckily, we are not alone in this suffering. To prove it, here are just a few of the many deranged thoughts that go through a college student's mind during finals week.

I know every college student has daily thoughts throughout their day. Whether you're walking on campus or attending class, we always have thoughts running a mile a minute through our heads. We may be wondering why we even showed up to class because we'd rather be sleeping, or when the professor announces that we have a test and you have an immediate panic attack.
