What College Students Are Tired Of Hearing
Noiseless Chatter

I'm not entirely sure why I have heard these questions so many times or why people think it's necessary to ask them. Yet, here we are reading an article about it because over the years I've come to find out I'm not the only one overly annoyed with these questions. Sometimes, you hear the questions and you can brush them off while others make you want to repeatedly bang your head on your very expensive and unused college books.

1. Are you eating healthy?

Yes totally. Because being surrounded by cafeterias, food courts, Starbucks, pizza places that are open till 2 a.m. and staying up late studying is totally good for my healthy eating habits.

2. You don't skip any classes do you?

Absolutely not. All of my classes are SUPER important and teach me all the life skills that I need to survive. I really love hearing the Spanish professor babble for an hour and a half about her nine-year-old cat that looks "super adorable" when it sleeps.

3. Why don't you have a significant other yet?

Because I thoroughly enjoy being the third wheel and never having a date to any of the formals or parties. DUH.

4. You're never going to find a job if that's what you're majoring in.

I seriously appreciate your vote of confidence.

5. Are you excited about going back next semester?

Summer break JUST started yesterday... what do you think my answer is, lady?

6. College is easy.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA okay bye.

7. Student loans can't be THAT bad.

Does that mean you're going to pay for them all for me?

8. Shouldn't you slow down on the coffee consumption?

Don't tell me how to live my life.

9. Why didn't you make Dean's List?

Because I'm above all those stupid "labels."

10. How do you think you did on your finals?

If we could all act like they didn't happen that would be great.

11. Shouldn't you be studying more often?

12. Do you get enough sleep?

Are the bags under my bags really not that obvious?

13. Did you gain the freshman 15?

I have zero self control.

14. Do you always dress like a bum?

Only on days that end in y.


15. You're going to be an adult soon are you ready for it?

It's a no from me.

16. You took longer than four years to graduate?

I'm sorry that we can't all be as perfect as your four-time middle school honor roll student.

17. How are you going to pay off your student loans?

Honestly, I'm not really sure. Say an extra prayer for me please.

18. How often do you go out and paaaarty?

Never. I'm snuggled up in my bed at 8 p.m. on the dot.

19. You don't call home enough.

Sorry I've been drowning in my sorrows school work.

If I have learned one thing in my lifetime, it is that friends are a privilege. No one is required to give you their company and yet there is some sort of shared connection that keeps you together. And from that friendship, you may even find yourself lucky enough to have a few more friends, thus forming a group. Here are just a few signs that prove your current friend group is the ultimate friend group.

When it comes to television, there’s very few sets of on-screen siblings that a lot of us can relate to. Only those who have grown up with siblings knows what it feels like to fight, prank, and love a sibling. Ross and Monica Geller were definitely overbearing and overshared some things through the series of "Friends," but they captured perfectly what real siblings feel in real life. Some of their antics were funny, some were a little weird but all of them are completely relatable to brothers and sisters everywhere.

College is a great place to meet people, especially through Greek life. If you look closely at sororities, you'll quickly see there are many different types of girls you will meet.

1. The Legacy.

Her sister was a member, her mom was a member, all of her aunts were members, and her grandma was a member. She has been waiting her whole life to wear these letters and cried hysterically on bid day. Although she can act entitled at times, you can bet she is one of the most enthusiastic sisters.

Every kid in college and/or high school dreams of summer the moment they walk through the door on the first day back in September. It becomes harder and harder to focus in classes and while doing assignments as the days get closer.
