How You Feel When You're Behind On 'Game Of Thrones'

Being behind on GoT and being online is like jumping off the Wall and hoping you don't break any bones.

How You Feel When You're Behind On 'Game Of Thrones'
Game of Thrones

Being a student makes it quite difficult to be caught up on the latest episodes of any show. But for some reason, being behind on "Game of Thrones" is the worst of them all. The episodes are so dense and the following so devout that you become AWARE of missing out on information. Everywhere you go, there is a reminder that you forgot to watch the latest episode of GoT.


1. You hate social media on Mondays.


Being behind on "Game of Thrones" and being online is like jumping off the Wall and hoping you don't break any bones. There's pictures of Jon Snow in articles, jokes about Doors in YouTube videos, and even Reddit is full of fan theories. There is absolutely NO WAY to avoid mentions of "Game of Thrones".


2. You think EVERYTHING is a spoiler.

You have WHAT?


3. You feel isolated from the fandom.

I remember hearing everyone's reactions to "The Red Wedding" when it happened and how it apparently changed everything. But when I watched that episode yesterday, I didn't have anyone to scream about it with. Who do I cry with if my favorite character dies? I don't know anymore.


4. You die a little at each new episode.


What about Jon Snow's butt? What happened with a Door? Who is still alive? I want to know but I don't want to know. I can't TAKE IT ANYMORE.


5. You binge-watch to catch up.


I watched four seasons in one week. Trust me, I can watch 14 more episodes before the season is over.

Today I started my third week of college at Minnesota State Moorhead. I have survived welcome week, finding my classes on the first day, and being an awkward loner in the dining hall. 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. For some students, it's their first time in the library all semester, maybe ever. Others have slaved away many nights under the fluorescent lights, and are slightly annoyed to find their study space being invaded by amateurs. While these newbies wander aimlessly around the first floor, hopelessly trying to find a table, the OGs of the library are already on the third floor long tables deep into their studies. Here is a few signs that you may live in the library, whether you'd like to admit it or not.
