The life of a college student isn't always as glamorous as we'd hope for it to be. It's a pivotal time in your life jam-packed with experiences, both good and bad. We're handed the task of searching for what we want to do with the rest of our lives at the age of 18. Not to mention while also simultaneously taking 5 or more classes, studying/working on assignments for those classes, trying to sustain relationships, binge watching shows on Netflix, and who could forget throwing in a quick power nap every now and again! We all have our favorite movies growing up, and for me, it was (and still is) Ferris Bueller's Day Off. No one understands the college struggle more than Ferris Bueller, himself.
1. Trying to figure out what you want to do with the rest of your life:
Because does anyone really know what they're doing? Some people are just better at acting like they do.
2. Fridays (and Thursdays, let's be honest):
3. When you can't decide if you should go out or stay in:
Mostly because you have an entire season of your latest Netflix obsession begging to be watched at home...decisions, decisions.
4. Waking up the next morning:
5. When finals week finally hits:
And it hits hard.
6. When you're just not feeling it:
7. When your professor assigns work over break:
8. When spring fever finally kicks in:
9. When your professor doesn't reply to any of your emails:
So I guess it's cool if I hand the paper in late?
10. Third Wheeling:
And fourth wheeling... And fifth wheeling...
11. Walking into class and forgetting you have that big assignment due:
12. Sitting in class after pulling an all-nighter:
13. That one guy who just never shows up to class:
14. When you're reunited with home-cooked meals over break:
THANKS MOM AND DAD
15. When you have 3 midterms on the same day back to back:
16. When your professor makes a mistake grading your test:
17. Being sick:
18. When you score that phone interview:
19. Finishing a series on Netflix:
Now what?
20. When you actually know the questions on your test:
21. When someone says they have a 4.0:
22. Trying to use what you learned in class:
23. When someone sits in your seat (a.k.a. your unassigned assigned seat):
Best of luck on the rest of your semester everyone! And remember, in the words of Ferris Bueller, himself:
