Ahhhhh, college. We all have a love-hate relationship with this place. So many great things happen each year; but at the same time, we sometimes hate our lives. This is my way of explaining college through my favorite childhood (and maybe adulthood) show- SpongeBob Squarepants:
At the start of each year, we are all so excited. We get to see our friends that we haven't seen in a few months, and we finally have something to do with our lives!
Walking into the first day of classes and seeing that you have class with your best friends or teammates:
When we all say "this is gonna be the year that I study real hard and get all A's"
Once we actually try to go to the library and study; but start to go mentally insane:
Handing in our first few lab reports, assignments, or exams to the professors just like this:
Sitting in class and having someone raise their hand and go "one time..." and continue on with a personal story that has nothing to do with the topic we're on
How everyone is once December rolls around and we all get to go on break finally
When everyone comes back in January and expects it not to be cold????
Second semester starts, and again we say "this is my semester. All A's"
2 weeks into the semester:
Getting grades back and just feeling like this:
But feeling like this once the weekend comes
And don't even get me started on when friends come to visit:
Trying to get to the packed gym and get in a workout, but just feeling like:
Actually getting a successful workout in and feeling like:
When class ends at 10:45, and the professor is still lecturing at 10:46
How we feel when we get a few good grades in a row
How we feel once we realize its senior year, and we're about to graduate
Overall, I swear college is great! Sometimes we despise it; but it's the best four years of our life.
