College Station Traffic, As Told by The Office

What better way than the cast of The Office to explain our feelings.

College Station Traffic, As Told by The Office

Overall, we all know that College Station roads make us as Aggies, well, not act like Aggies. From the lights on Texas stopping us when we're running late, to fellow drivers making us contemplate murder, to that dang train, what better way than the cast of The Office to explain our feelings.

1. The entire University/Texas Intersection.

2. All major roads (looking at you, Wellborn and University) between the 5-6 PM rush hour.

3. All roads surrounding sorority row from 5-6:30 on Mondays.

4. When you pull up next to a car with a good fraternity's letters on the back.

5. When someone stares at you while stopped at a red light.

6. When you see someone trying to cut right in front of you in the stand-still line of cars waiting to exit Breakaway, or the parking garage after class.

7. When you get stuck behind someone going 10 under, and there's no way around them.

8. When you can finally pass that person.

9. When someone in a huge truck decides to prove their masculinity on George Bush.

10. When you squeeze past the red on the 4th consecutive stop light on Texas by that much.

11. When you miss the turn signal and you realize in that moment all the timers on our turn signal lights are ridiculous.

12. When you're at the front of the line at a left turn red light, and people are getting antsy, creeping up on your bumper.

13. When you missed the train by that much, or you're only going parallel to it.

14. When you see the railroad lights flash and the gates are lowering, right before your light would have turned green.

Lets be real though, after dealing with College Station traffic.

Shoutout to Paige Milburn for always embracing College Station traffic like a pro.

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.

December... it's full of finals, due dates, Mariah Carey, and the holidays. It's the worst time of the year, but the best because after finals, you get to not think about classes for a month and catch up on all the sleep you lost throughout the semester. But what's worse than finals week is the last week of classes, when all the due dates you've put off can no longer be put off anymore.

Thanksgiving break is over and Christmas is just around the corner and that means, for most college students, one hellish thing — finals week. It's the one time of year in which the library becomes over populated and mental breakdowns are most frequent. There is no way to avoid it or a cure for the pain that it brings. All we can do is hunker down with our books, order some Dominos, and pray that it will all be over soon. Luckily, we are not alone in this suffering. To prove it, here are just a few of the many deranged thoughts that go through a college student's mind during finals week.

I know every college student has daily thoughts throughout their day. Whether you're walking on campus or attending class, we always have thoughts running a mile a minute through our heads. We may be wondering why we even showed up to class because we'd rather be sleeping, or when the professor announces that we have a test and you have an immediate panic attack.
