College as told by Broadway Musicals

Whether you are a freshman just starting out or a senior who is almost done, Broadway musicals have a certain way of explaining just how you are feeling at any certain moment.

If I know anything, it is that you can learn a lot from Broadway musicals. From American history in Hamilton and Newsies to life lessons from Dear Evan Hansen and Legally Blonde. One thing I have found recently, however, from watching so many Broadway musicals is that they do a really good job of explaining exactly what college life is like. Whether you are a freshman just starting out or a senior who is almost done, Broadway musicals have a certain way of explaining just how you are feeling at any certain moment. So if you need a break from studying or you just need a good laugh to get through the stress, here is just a few times when Broadway musical pretty explained what you were thinking or what you needed to say and did not know how to put into words. (Note some images are not from Broadway musical, but these shows have been Broadway musicals at one time.)

1. When you think a professor is out to get you / destroy your life and you decide to rebel but only in your head because they're scary and you don't a worse grade.

2. When you're ready to give up on life and become a hobo because you're so homesick and you know of a fact you're going to fail at life.

3. When one of your professor's goes through the power point way too fast and no one in your class was able to keep up either so you're totally lost.

4. When you given into your procrastination for too long and you finally decide to stop wasting time and change your ways.

5. When you unexpectedly get into an easy class that you didn't expect to have and you don't have anything to do in it. #Blessed

6. When one of your classes is canceled and you can sleep in an extra hour, which you seriously need because you stayed up way too late the night before "studying.

7. When you get put in a group with a bunch of people who won't do anything and you end up doing all the work yourself.

8. When your teacher claims she/he will have something graded by the end of the week, but it's Sunday night and you're still obsessively checked Blackboard finally realizing that your teacher full of lies.

9. When you do better on a test than you previously thought and now you no longer believe that you're going to fail out of college and die.

18 Things I Want To Do Now That I'm 18

I'm technically an adult, so I'm legally required to live a little, right?

For the entirety of my high school career, I was always seen as the goody-two-shoes. I never got in trouble with a teacher, I kept stellar grades, and when I wasn't doing extracurricular activities, I was at home studying. Even when I did go out, it was usually with a bunch of fellow band geeks. The night would end before 11:00 PM and the only controversial activity would be a fight based on who unfairly won a round of Apples-to-Apples when someone else clearly had a better card (I promise I'm not still holding a grudge).

Now that I'm officially an adult, I want to pursue some new things. I want to experience life in a way that I never allowed myself to do prior to entering college. These are the years that I'm supposed to embark on a journey of self-discovery, so what better way to do that than to create a bucket list?

So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.
