The student experience told by Rick from "Rick and Morty."

A College Tale By Rick Sanchez
Adult Swim

October 4, 2015 was perhaps the worst and best day of last year. This day happened to be the release date of the last episode in Season Two of the Show of the Year, maybe the world, perhaps even the intergalactic universe. As fans of "Rick and Morty" may know, the next season had been predicted by Mr. Poopy ButtHole to be released no sooner than a year and a half from the October date. However, the latest update has revealed that the beloved grandpa Rick and his grandson Morty may be making their reappearances by the end of this year. Wubalubadubdub!

As I sat in my room analyzing the previous episodes and predicting the future ones, I realized that we are just like "Rick and Morty." Aside from the intergalactic space travel, aliens and super-genius mad scientist part of the show, Rick Sanchez is the embodiment of students everywhere.

1. When you were certain it was only 10 p.m. when you last checked, but someone tells you it's already 3 a.m.


2. Dealing with that one friend who somehow, miraculously, does not procrastinate and is always early to everything.


3. Trying to figure out why your college tuition does not cover nearly enough food for you to survive.


4. When you get to the party and all your friends look as badass as the Smiths.


5. No one else at home means your inner rockstar makes its appearance.


6. When you try to convince your friends that they should stop studying and go have fun with you.


7. Low-key being the dancing machine and bringing joy to the lives of other stressed kids.


8. Being the one misanthropic downer while the rest of your friends are dressed up and having fun.

9. The last day before finals and you have yet to start studying.


10. When you are finally done with school and "Rick and Morty" episodes for the year.

18 Things I Want To Do Now That I'm 18

I'm technically an adult, so I'm legally required to live a little, right?

For the entirety of my high school career, I was always seen as the goody-two-shoes. I never got in trouble with a teacher, I kept stellar grades, and when I wasn't doing extracurricular activities, I was at home studying. Even when I did go out, it was usually with a bunch of fellow band geeks. The night would end before 11:00 PM and the only controversial activity would be a fight based on who unfairly won a round of Apples-to-Apples when someone else clearly had a better card (I promise I'm not still holding a grudge).

Now that I'm officially an adult, I want to pursue some new things. I want to experience life in a way that I never allowed myself to do prior to entering college. These are the years that I'm supposed to embark on a journey of self-discovery, so what better way to do that than to create a bucket list?

So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.
