You're freaking out and realizing you're unsatisfied with your life at the ripe age of 45? LOL. Have you tried being 20 at the end of your sophomore year in college? That sh*t is terrifying. You're going to find yourself wanting to change your life path completely and the thoughts of you never finding a spouse will keep you up at night. So, forget buying a new Ferrari, nothing can quite help you cope with the mid-college life crisis. But I'm here to show you aren't alone.

You call your mom at least twice a week.

And these phone calls are a minimum of an hour.


You've theoretically changed your major four times.

The biology credits will totally go toward an international business degree, right?

Your Google history contains searches for internships, jobs and minimum GPA requirements.

LOL at that time I thought I could get into med school.

In addition to how much you can sell body parts for on the black market.

You've inquired about the annual salary (before tips) for the available position at the local strip club.

The only phrases you find yourself saying are "I'm unstable" and "I'm not OK."

You consider a successful night's sleep to be anything more than three hours.

You've made more than six plans for your remaining semesters.

The emails you send to your advisor have become more like diary entries about everything that is wrong with your life.

You can't stop thinking about the fact you're going to end up alone and without a job.

When the weekend comes along, you go hard.

People often tell you you look dead inside.

And they aren't wrong.

I'll admit it, I have a condition called RBF or, if you will, Resting Bitch Face.

Anna Kendrick, poor Kristen Stewart, the Queen of England are all life-long sufferers of RBF. Victoria Beckham even made a career out of it! And though it's usually used to describe women, some men are also afflicted. Kanye West is the best example of this.

April Ludgate

Everyone who is in college right now, or has ever been, knows the struggle of pulling in the strings at the last second. It seems impossible, and you have to do a LOT of things in order to assure your future for the next semester.

April Ludgate, historically, is a very annoyed person, and she doesn't hide it. Of all the times that I binged and re-binged "Parks and Rec," her attitude relates more and more to me.

Ask friends of mine to name a quality about me, and one a lot them will point out the fact that I am almost always smiling. I like to laugh and smile -- not to quote Buddy the Elf in April, but smiling is my favorite! It is probably my favorite go-to expression. However, what a lot of people do not see is that I have my down days. I have days when smiling and laughing is a real struggle, or when I have so much on my plate that going out of my way to behappy takes more effort than I have stored in me. Be it a symptom of college and growing up or a facet of life, I cannot always be content.
