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.

College is supposed to be one of the best times of your life. However, it is also one of the toughest transitions to make.

One of my biggest pet peeves is when someone does not try to help their self before asking others. How can someone else be expected to help you if you do not first do that yourself? I'm all about helping those that need it when the time comes, however whenever someone does not even attempt to help him or herself first then that becomes a huge problem. As we all have learned, people tend to take advantage of us in one way or another. I am sure we all read this short story when we were younger and it follows that same principle:
