16 Times Napoleon Dynamite Perfectly Described Going To College
LA Weekly

College is a whirlwind- between the pressure of academics, extracurricular commitments, and social events, you're almost always occupied. Although it's hard to describe the blanket experience of college within a sentence or two, I decided to conquer this challenge with the help of one of the best movies ever: Napoleon Dynamite, because let's be real- college is where all of your wildest dreams come true.

1. Your reaction when the class you took because you thought it was going to be easy is actually super hard.

What the frick?

2. When you ask your roommate if they want to go to dinner.

*kidding*

3. When your roommate has the nerve to ask how classes were.


Jeez!

4. When you call home for a favor.


C'mon just mail it.

5. When you venture off-campus and they play your jam.

Yuzzz.

6. When you sneak food out of the dining hall.

Saving these tots for later.

7. When you bring your resume in to Center for Career Development for some pointers.

Help me, please.

8. When you ace that exam.

Ohhhh yeah baby.

9. When you make yourself a post-party snack.

Oh, yes.

10. When your roommate complains about being hungry.

Eat the food!

11. When you realize you have more dining dollars than you expected.

Time for another milkshake.

12. When you need a pull to class.

"It'd be nice if you could pull me into town."

13. When you finally tested out the weight machines in the gym.

Check it out!

14. When you're trying to impress someone by playing hard to get.

Short, simple, to the point.

15. ...But then you decide to get your flirt on.

Perfect.

And finally,

16. When you realize college goes by so frickin' fast.

Nooooooo.

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.
