15 Biggest College Pet Peeves As Told By A Highly Caffienated College Student

NBC Universal

There are just some things we all don't like about college, whether we can control it or not.

1. Laundry

Giphy

We have ~~three~~twoworking washers in my dorm building and five working dryers. For the whole building.

2. Food Lines

Giphy

If you go to Ithaca College and try to eat breakfast lunch and dinner on the hour, I pray for you. The omelet line is long, the taco line is long, all the lines are long.

3. The food itself is... questionable

Either you like it, or you don't, there is no in-between.

4. The weather

media.giphy.com

It's ice cold in Ithaca 75% of the year and boiling hot the other 15%.

5. It's hard to make new friends halfway through the semester

media.giphy.com

I'm pretty sure I only knew four people max in each of my classes.

6. Grades

media.giphy.com

WHERE ARE THEY? WHY CAN'T I FIND THEM? WHAT'S MY GPA?

7. Buses home

media.giphy.com

(For those without a car) The coach buses home are a blessing and a curse, either you get a seat to yourself or you're sitting with a complete stranger for 6 hours straight.

8. Scheduling for the semester

media.giphy.com

*When HomerConnect crashes at exactly your registration time*

9. Every class is full

media.giphy.com

*When HomerConnect finally connects and all the classes and backups you planned for are full *

10. Loud people at night

media.giphy.com

I live in a dorm and I swear to God I don't need to hear you singing High School Musical's "Breaking Free" at 2 am when I have an 8 am to get to.

11. Cost of college

media.giphy.com

$$$

12. Party culture

media.giphy.com

The guys outside Upper Quads that bellow "Yeeah" to each other, the sounds of guys and girls throwing up.

13. No decorating

media.giphy.com

I got a door violation and I'm bitter. Alternatively: Just let me decorate for Halloween please!

14. All your essays are due at once

media.giphy.com

At the end of Finals week you'll have written 8 essays, taken 3 tests, and still have to pack for home and maintain a social life.

15. People who don't raise their hand in a hands-raising class

media.giphy.com

Sorry, just, there was one guy in one of my classes that was super obnoxious and would blurt out whatever he wanted whenever he wanted and... It got on my nerves.

What a bitter post, sorry not sorry. Sometimes you just have to vent ya know?

It’s here; that time of year when college students turn into preschoolers again. We cry for our mothers, eat everything in sight, and whine when we don’t get our way. It’s finals, the dreaded time of the semester when we all realize we should have been paying attention in class instead of literally doing anything else but that. Everyone has to take them, and yes, unfortunately, they are inevitable. But just because they are here and inevitable does not mean they’re peaches and cream and full of rainbows. Surviving them is a must, and the following five phases are a reality for all majors from business to art, nursing to history.
