The Olympic Events give countries a chance to come together and watch the world’s greatest athletes compete in several sports. And if you're American, the Olympic Events are usually a reminder that other sports exist outside of baseball, basketball, and football.
But you might not have time to watch this year's Olympic Winter Games, especially if you’re a college student. Don’t worry, however! Your everyday activities are just as impressive as an Olympic Event. Or so you tell yourself.
1. Eating an entire pizza by yourself.
OK, so this technically counts as competitive eating. But your only competition is your body’s desire to stop eating. Remember, any pizza is a personal pizza if you’re brave enough.
2. Summoning the willpower to do laundry.
College laundry rooms are often the busiest yet awkward places on campuses. Even if you manage to find one with free washers and dryers, there’s always the chance that your hamper or bag might break and spill your clothes all over the floor. May the gods of detergent smile upon you.
3. Waking up late and subsequently rushing to class.
You've slept through your alarm. Or maybe you forgot to set an alarm in the first place. Either way, your class starts in five minutes and you haven't even gotten out of bed yet.
4. FaceTiming, Skyping, or just talking with your parents while hungover.
I am not condoning underage drinking, nor am I suggesting that it's just a part of college life. But let's not kid ourselves. If you've to recover from a wild night, catching up with your parents probably isn't one of your priorities. And if you know your parents wouldn't approve of the wild night you just had, you'll probably have to act normally. But all the coffee in the world won't help you explain to them why you’re wearing sunglasses indoors.
5. Writing a satirical clickbait article.
Do you think this is easy? Well it is, as long as you can live with selling your soul for those sweet, sweet views.
