1. The drink you want is usually not what comes out of the fountain.
Every time I'm craving some fruit punch, I get iced tea instead. But when it is fruit punch, I can't help but cheers to a good day.
2. Two words: Microwavable meals
Welcome to college. Our specials on the menu today include mac and cheese, ramen noodle soup, and hot pockets. For dessert, cake in a cup.

There's no better way to end a long day of classes than watching five episodes of your favorite Netflix show.
4. The struggle and stress of sharing a bathroom
You're lucky if you haven't had to deal with the awkwardness of your suite mate walking in on you in the bathroom...
5. Lots of walking
Once you get done with the semester, you'll probably noticed what stellar calves you have from all the strolling around you do on campus.
6. Dreaming about having money
If you could describe a college student in one word, it would probably be broke. But that doesn't mean we can't day dream about getting that Friday paycheck to spend. Holla for a dollar!
7. Laundry
Ah, there's nothing better than laundry day. *Cue sarcasm*
8. Traditions
Whether it's the cheers in the football stands, the campus legends, or the haunted study halls, every college has their own unique traditions that you are bound to learn and love.
9. More (or less) sleep
It depends on your schedule, but college kids most likely get a lot more rest than they did during high school. Yet, some students lose a significant amount of sleep due to the nightly homework grind.
10. Meeting so many unique individuals
One of the greatest things about college is it vociferates diversity. You have the opportunity to get to know so many people from all over the country and the world. So take advantage!
