The College Struggle Told Through Bob's Burgers Gifs

Bob is passionate about the burger joint he runs with help from his wife Linda and less help from his three kids Tina, Gene, and Louise in the hysterical cartoon "Bob's Burgers". This show, binge-worthy and excellent, could just possibly be the struggle every student goes through while trying to survive college.

Move-in day

You've been counting down the days until you can move in and the day is finally here. You lug your stuff into your dorm and, before unpacking, go on a mission to find your friends who are all equally as excited as you are to be back together.


Syllabus week

You aren't used to waking up so early for classes so getting out of bed is a struggle.

Once awake, you have to mentally prepare yourself not to skip (this will continue through the rest of the semester/college career).

However, it's only syllabus week so classes aren't that hard... until all your professors decide to teach during the first class like it is their job or something.

Parties

Parties might be one of the best parts of college... don't tell my parents I said that.

With that brings...

Avoiding the frat guy who is trying to make his move

while trying to get that cute guy from your class to notice you.

Running out of money way too quickly

Being on your own requires more money than you think. Especially when you are buying alcohol/marijuana/take-out/doing things with friends. Everything adds up and you can only remember what it was like to have more than $17 in your bank account.

Eventually, you just have to stop spending money and go home.

Stu(dying)

College means an unreasonable amount of homework each night and with that, a lot of studying.

Your parents will check in weekly to make sure you are still on track for Dean's List while maintaining your internship and off campus job.

Constantly wondering if it is really worth it

All the work is so stressful and overwhelming that you just

At least three times a week you debate dropping out to pursue something much easier.

Making your own decisions

You don't have your parents to tell you what to do and what not to do so you are constantly pushing the boundaries to see what is possible.

Not all decisions are good ones. However, bringing food into bed with you is always a good idea... until you squish all your chips.

Roommates

Living with others is difficult when they aren't your family. They don't automatically forgive you for using all their things and eating all their food. Learning to live with others is difficult but a necessity in college. When you finally find those you live with perfectly (or pretty damn close to it) keep them close!


College is a rollercoaster experience, one that the Belchers can relate well to. Check out the show and good luck with the rest of your semester!

Everyone who is in college right now, or has ever been, knows the struggle of pulling in the strings at the last second. It seems impossible, and you have to do a LOT of things in order to assure your future for the next semester.

April Ludgate, historically, is a very annoyed person, and she doesn't hide it. Of all the times that I binged and re-binged "Parks and Rec," her attitude relates more and more to me.

Ask friends of mine to name a quality about me, and one a lot them will point out the fact that I am almost always smiling. I like to laugh and smile -- not to quote Buddy the Elf in April, but smiling is my favorite! It is probably my favorite go-to expression. However, what a lot of people do not see is that I have my down days. I have days when smiling and laughing is a real struggle, or when I have so much on my plate that going out of my way to behappy takes more effort than I have stored in me. Be it a symptom of college and growing up or a facet of life, I cannot always be content.
