9 Things That Are Completely Acceptable Because You're In College

That wouldn't be acceptable otherwise

9 Things That Are Completely Acceptable Because You're In College
Vox

I never really noticed everything that is totally normal in college that wouldn't be normal if you were in your late twenties. The best excuse my roommates have ever said, "Who cares? You're in college. That's your excuse." And then bippity-boppity bam, nine things that are completely acceptable because you're in college.

1. Going out in public in your PJ's

If you did this at an actual job, you'd be fire the minute you walked in.


2. Dumpster diving for donuts and makeup is low key normal


No matter what anyone says, this is totally okay and sanitary as college students but as an adult, it's a bit concerning.


3. Eating pizza for breakfast, lunch and dinner


It's all about the pizza.


4. Skipping class to finish work for another class


But let's be honest, if you skipped your shift for another shift at your other job... That would just be wrong. You'd be fire along with wearing PJs to class.


5. Being weird in public

I am so weird in public.


6. Taking an excessive number of naps


I'm like 98 percent sure if I napped as much as I did if I were 27, someone would probably be concerned about my mental health.


7. Stress Eating


In the adult world, stress eating isn't a thing. Because nobody understands stress like a college student.


8. Throwing yourself a pity party every other day


Once again, if I did this in my late twenties, someone would probably be really concerned for my mental health. But as a college student, it's almost encouraged to throw yourself a pity party every other day.


9. Binge Watching Netflix Shows


Because what kind of adult binge watches all 10 seasons of friends and then all 6 seasons of Shameless? They just don't.

I thought senioritis in high school was rough until I became a college senior about to go into the real world. I'm supposed to have everything figured out, right? I mean I went through four years of tough classes and serious self-searching (and crying). What I found overall was Senioritis sneaking up on me.
