11 Phrases College Students Love
Dream stime

College is an interesting time for those who choose to attend. You find out a lot about yourself, and it does not matter if it is a smaller liberal arts college or a bigger university. It is a self discovering adventure. However, the road is long and difficult. College is no walk in the park. It is a journey full of trials and tribulations and you will hear things that you do not want to hear. Things that will make you question everything you have ever believed in. Let me tell you that you can in fact ask questions yourself. If you do not see eye to eye with what the professor is saying, it is ok to question and challenge. They encourage it. But going back to hearing things, just as there are things you do not want to hear, there are things that give you a sigh of relief once heard. Here are 11 things that every college student wants to hear.

1. "What test?"

Nothing brings two or more students together than knowing you are screwed for that surprise test. It is a feeling like none other because you and a stranger now have a bond that can last the semester.

2. "Free"

Nothing brings a tear to a student's eye than hearing that something is free. Trust me, the freer..... most free? More free, the better. Whether it is hygienic supplies or stuff to practice safe sex with, when it is free, it is wonderful. Same with food. Free food equals best food.

3. "Stress dogs/cats"

How can you feel stressed when momentarily, your world becomes warm and fuzzy because you are accompanied by a furry friend? My freshman year we had cats that they were adopting. I ended up bonding with one and cried a bit.

4. "College Night"

Having a beer after a long week is magical. It is even better when the drinks are 1/2 off. Thank you college night for $6 pitchers.

5. "No class"

THANK YOU PROFESSOR FOR HAVING PITY ON US!!!!!!! Even though sometimes they just do not feel like coming in that day.

6. "Discount with your ID"

I like paying for less. We all like paying for less. WE ALL LOVE PAYING FOR LESS!

7. "I got you."

You cry a little when someone offers to buy you food. Be real, we all do. Payback though, is another story.

8. "Open notes/book test"

Hearing this opens up the window because you might not be doing so well in that class and this is your chance to finally get your foot in the door.

9. "I am extending the test/project another week"

There is a God who shows mercy on us. Professors are humans just like us. They remember the times. They remember.

10. "You got a package you need to pick up"

When it is not a letter from your school or a bank trying to lure you to them, your heart leaps a little when you end up getting a package from either home or amazon because you do not get much letters anymore. It is a lost sentiment of love.

11. "We are watching a movie today"

Yes you read that right. There are professors who find a way to incorporate a movie into their studies...... but then again, there are those who just want to watch a movie.

Like I said, college is an interesting time. It has its ups and downs with days that feel like the world is crushing you, but there are good times as well.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.

1. It's easy to be fooled by shiny things.

Tamatoa created a liar filled with shiny things simply for the purpose of tricking fish to enter and become his food. He too experiences a lesson in how easy it is to be tricked by shiny things when Moana distracts him by covering herself in glowing algae so Maui can grab his hook.
