College As Expressed By The Blinking White Guy
The Guardian

College is hard. Really hard. As I was surfing the Interwebs, definitely not avoiding homework, I ran across the blinking white guy meme. And he expressed all of the feelings I've ever had about college. Here are my 10 constant college feelings as described by the blinker:

1. When a teacher pulls up a "Lesson 1" slide on syllabus day.

Your heart skips a beat and you pray that you remembered to bring a pen and paper.

2. When someone takes your unassigned assigned seat.

And you give them the evil eye as you walk by. If only you'd remembered to write your name on it.

3. When you go to a darty and see a freshman in a full-on clubbing outfit.

As her heels sink into the muddy frat grass, you begin to slowly giggle.

4. When your favorite teacher gives you a bad grade.

Even though you didn't study...how could they do this to you??

5. When you open your math textbook and it looks like an actual foreign language.

Why are there letters in my math? Is this a typo?

6. When anyone says they miss high school.

Unless your experience was like Troy and Gabriella's, I will never understand this statement.

7. When you think Summer is close and someone tells you it's only the 2nd day of classes.

"I'm sorry sir but you're wrong, that has to be impossible."

8. When you take a quick 30 minute nap before your class and wake up 4 hours later.

Your initial thoughts: "Why is it dark outside? Did I die?"

9. When your friend's say you should go out with them, but it's a Wednesday.


And don't they know that you're busy with your newest Netflix show?

10. When someone tells you that college is the best years of your life.

God I hope not.

The Battle Between College And My Mental Health

College isn't easy, and I'm afraid I'm not going to make it at the rate my mental health is going.

Everyone tells you that college is hard, but they fail to explain why. Sure, classes are hard. Math sucks, and political science can be so boring. But that's not even what's killing me about college. What's killing me about college is my deterioating mental health.

As a college student, I feel as if people don't understand just how exhausted I, and fellow college students are. We have so many things going on, all the time, and sometimes it's hard to explain to people how we feel. Personally...I'm tired. I'm sad. And I'm struggling every single day with my emotions. But the thing is, it hasn't always been this way. I haven't always hated school, so why am I feeling like this now?
