In This Article:

Ah, College. The best (and sometimes worst) times of our young, 20-something lives. Sometimes there are triumphs and sometimes there are tribulations. One day you feel on top of the world and motivated, while other days you have the urge to sit in your shower and cry all day. It's one big, fun, and fast rollercoaster. College is a place to find who you are and soak up as much knowledge as you can while trying to survive off of McDonald's, instant ramen, and desperation.

However, there is no real way to define the entire college experience in words. So, this week, I have decided to show my talents in using reaction pictures and GIFs by giving a quick glimpse into the college lifestyle using reaction pictures and GIFs of the Queen of Daytime TV, Wendy Williams!

1. Walking into your first-ever college class in an outfit you picked out the night before. 

YouTube

We all know that girl (or guy) walking into their 10 a.m. class as if it's a red carpet event. High school might've been a fashion show, but college is FAR from a fashion show.

2. Walking into class late...with the cup of coffee that made you late.

I've fallen victim to this. Waking up in the outfit from the night before, rolling out of bed, stopping at the on-campus Starbucks two minutes before class starts. It's become my normal Tuesday morning.

3. When you're up late studying and you aren't sure if the "A" is worth it anymore. 

YouTube

This usually happens while studying for the second test in the class. You may think you have wiggle room to bring up your grade, but trust me, there is no wiggle room.

4. When your professor says "I will not drop any assignments, I will not round up your grade, and there is NO extra credit."

YouTube

A professor who isn't willing to help their students succeed in their class is a professor I would NEVER want to have!

5. When you score free food on campus. 

YouTube

We all know the feeling of getting free food. It's almost like finding hidden treasure. Free food tastes better - always. To the student clubs who tirelessly recruit people by using pizza to lure people to your club...continue to do that...please.

6. When you're trying to inconspicuously cheat on an exam you barely studied for. 

YouTube

It's very entertaining to watch people try to look at the Scantron of the person next to them. ESPECIALLY if they make it obvious. Like, hello! We see you!

7. How you treat your unassigned assigned seat in class.

YouTube

The most popular unspoken rule of college! The seat you pick on the first day of class will be your unassigned assigned seat for the rest of the semester, so never sit anywhere else. Unless, of course, someone already sits in your seat, then you have no choice but to sit in someone else's seat, throwing off the equilibrium of the class.

8. When you're waiting for your Uber outside of the club while drunk, sad, and tired.

Colin Christian

It was supposed to be a fun night out, but you and your friends get in a drunken argument, thus leading you to walk out. Now you're out in the cold night waiting for your Uber to come to the rescue.

9. When you confidently walk in to take the test and nothing you studied is on the test. 

YouTube

If I had a dollar for every time this exact situation has happened to me, I'd be pretty rich. Sometimes it's because I end up studying the wrong material, but most times the professor is trying to trick us.

10. When you make eye contact with your professor and you try to look more interested in what they're saying. 

Giphy

I feel like we all do this. I don't know about you all, but I would hate for a professor to be so invested into their lecture to turn around to a class looking back at them with the most dead facial expressions.

11. When an argument breaks out during a class discussion. 

Giphy

Witnessing an argument between two students during a class discussion is always fun. It's all fun and games until one person begins to question the other person's intelligence, upbringing, or background, though *sips tea*.

12. When you see your professor in public and aren't sure if you should say hi or run away. 

Giphy

I have yet to see a professor off-campus. But, I have run into professors out of class. The conversation that sparks is always weirdly short and awkward. I'd rather just wave from afar and hope for the best.

13. When the semester is finally over, you took all your finals, and you can't wait to do it all over again in the spring (or fall... or never again).

YouTube

The huge sigh of relief. The semester is over and we're finally free! Unless, of course, you're not graduating, which means you have the pleasure of coming back for the next semester!

Wendy Williams, a woman of many faces and many expressions (also many words). This is just a small handful of occurrences you may encounter in college, ranging from pretty beneficial to straight up awkward. Although, I tried my best to give a glimpse into college student life. Being a college student is an experience that must be experienced firsthand to fully understand the struggles and the successes.

Blair Waldorf Quote
"DESTINY IS FOR LOSERS. IT'S JUST A STUPID EXCUSE TO WAIT FOR THINGS TO HAPPEN INSTEAD OF MAKING THEM HAPPEN." - BLAIR WALDORF.

The world stopped in 2012 when our beloved show "Gossip Girl" ended. For six straight years, we would all tune in every Monday at 9:00 p.m. to see Upper Eastside royalty in the form of a Burberry headband clad Blair Waldorf. Blair was the big sister that we all loved to hate. How could we ever forget the epic showdowns between her and her frenemy Serena Van Der Woodsen? Or the time she banished Georgina Sparks to a Christian summer camp? How about that time when she and her girls took down Bart Bass? Blair is life. She's taught us how to dress, how to be ambitious, and most importantly, how to throw the perfect shade.

11 Moments Every College Freshman Has Experienced

Because we made it, and because high school seniors deserve to know what they're getting themselves into

too tired to care

We've all been there. From move-in day to the first finals week in college, your first term is an adventure from start to finish. In honor of college decisions coming out recently, I want to recap some of the most common experiences college freshmen experience.

1. The awkward hellos on move-in day.

You're moving your stuff onto your floor, and you will encounter people you don't know yet in the hallway. They live on your floor, so you'll awkwardly smile and maybe introduce yourself. As you walk away, you will wonder if they will ever speak to you again, but don't worry, there's a good chance that you will make some great friends on your floor!

The college years are a time for personal growth and success. Everyone comes in with expectations about how their life is supposed to turn out and envision the future. We all freak out when things don't go exactly as planned or when our expectations are unmet. As time goes on, we realize that the uncertainty of college is what makes it great. Here are some helpful reminders about life in college.

1. "If I'm wearing black tomorrow, it's because I'm mourning my grade."

2. "Do you want to try ordering Chinese takeout to take back to the stacks?"

3. "This final paper has me questioning if this professor just sucks or is Satan himself."

4. "Is that person over there OK? They've been sleeping for a while."

5. "Why are you online shopping?"

"I want to motivate myself to study."

"Since when do you have money to buy something anyway?"

6. "I wonder how much I could make as a stripper."

7. "There are no stress relief dogs, and I feel conned. My stress today is worse than yesterday."

8. "Rate My Professor screwed me over."

9. "I wore these clothes yesterday, and maybe even the day before, but it's fine."

10. "I wonder if I could sneak a beer in here."

11. "I just really want chocolate chip cookies."

Dear High School Friend Group,

My sweet angels, where would I be without you guys. We all grew up together because we either met in middle school or high school and watched each other grow up and get "old." We got to go to prom together and then graduate together. Then watched each other as we continued our lives in college, joining sororities and meeting people who will impact our lives forever. It all has happened so fast.
