Asking Your Parents For Money As Told By Raven Baxter
Youtube / Disney Channel

A hilarious series that is still referenced today is Disney Channel’s hit show That’s So Raven. Raven can see into the future and has visions about what is going to happen before it happens. If only she could see that she was going to run out of money, just like all of us college students do all too often.

Checking your bank account app is always a horrible and terrifying experience, and is only made worse when it is paired with the realization that you are forced to ask your parents for money. Find out if you react similarly to Raven Baxter when pleading for extra cash.

Opening your phone and staring at the bank app.

Gathering the stamina to actually open the app.

Finally opening it and bracing yourself to check the account balance.

Realizing that there are four dollars left in your account.

Thinking about the bad decisions you made to waste all of your money.

Remembering that some of those wasteful decisions were actually very fun.

When your friends ask what's wrong when you have to call your parents and ask for money to be transferred.

Asking a friend to help you convince your parents to make a Venmo.

When they ask why you went out to dinner so many times instead of eating in the dining hall.

Pouting when they resist.

Giving them a fake compliment to butter them up.

Listening to them finally giving in.

Celebrating and telling your friends dinner's on you!

Spending all the money they gave you in less than two weeks and realizing you will have to go through this entire process once again.

Even though I have yet to be here for a month, I have already experienced many thoughts and problems that only a new college student can relate to.

"Make sure to get involved when you're in college!"

We've all heard some variation of this phrase, whether it came from parents, other family members, friends, RAs, or college-related articles. And, like many clichés, it's true for the most part. Getting involved during your college years can help you make friends, build your resume, and feel connected to your campus. However, these commitments can get stressful if you're dealing with personal issues, need to work, or aren't sure how to balance classes and everything else going on during the semester.

In college, one of the essential things to have is friends. Yes, textbooks, a laptop, and other school supplies are important but friends are essential. Friends are that support system everybody needs. The more friends you have the better the support system you have. But you also have someone to share experiences with. And don’t settle for just one or two friends because 8 out of 10 times they are busy and you are studying all alone. Or they have other friend groups that do not include you. Don’t settle for just one or two friends; make as many friends as you can. After the first couple of weeks of college, most friend groups are set and you may be without friends.

For a moment your world is spinning. The phone alarm has just scared you awake and you’re flooded by daunting thoughts of the day ahead. You have three assignments due and little time to work on them because of your job. You’re running late because you’ve hit snooze one to many times after yesterday’s long hours. You dizzily reach for a hoodie, craving its comfort, and rush for a speedy exit, praying you will have time to pick up coffee. Does this sound familiar?

Finals week is upon us. It is a magical time of year during which college students everywhere flock to the library in attempt to learn a semester's worth of knowledge in only a week.
