14 College Struggles As Told By Phoebe Buffet

As college students, we all experience the same types of things. The good, the bad and the ugly. Here's a compilation of 14 college struggles that we all endure throughout college as told by Miss Phoebe Buffet.


1. When your professors happen to plan all their exams and projects on the same week



I didn't ask for this. SOS.


2. When you've pulled an all-nighter and then go out in public the next morning



I could probably audition for "The Walking Dead" after an all nighter and get a part as a zombie.


3. When you get above average on an exam



Hey, a 43% looks pretty good when the class average was a 30%.


4. When your friends invite you to fun events but you have to work.



Having a job in college sucks because you miss out on fun things, but being poor also means missing out on fun things. The struggle.


5. When you try to cook a home cooked meal like the ones your parents make



The only things I can cook are mac and cheese and ramen, and I have a talent for ordering pizza.


6. When someone sits in the seat directly next to you



Of all the seats in this god-forsaken auditorium, why must you sit right next to me?


7. When you've studied for 3 days straight and still fail your exam




8. When a long weekend is coming up



Bye responsibilities! At least for a few days anyway...


9. When you actually get ready for once



When you actually put on clothes that aren't sweats or yoga pants, brush your hair, and do your makeup.


10. When you only have $1.75 in your bank account



Any amount of money is a lot of money when you're broke.


11. When you're at a party and you remember that assignment that was due at midnight


Oops...


12. When your professor cancels class



It's always nice knowing that your professors can be just as lazy as you are.


13. Finally getting out after a stressful week



Let's dance it out.


14. When you submit an assignment 1 minute before the deadline



It took a lot of speed typing to finish that 5-page essay in an hour. Ignore the grammar. And the spelling. And punctuation. In fact, maybe I shouldn't have waited until the last minute to type that up.

A three-and-a-half-hour runtime. Nine Eras. Eleven outfit changes. Three surprise songs. Zero breaks. One unforgettable evening. In the past century, no other performer has put on an electric performance quite like Taylor Swift, surpassing her fans ‘wildest dreams’. It is the reason supporters keep coming back to her shows each year. Days later, I’m still in awe of the spectacle ‘Miss Americana’ puts on every few days in a new city. And, like one of Taylor’s exes, has me smiling as I reminisce about the memories of the night we spent together.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
