I Really Hate College

Because college honestly sucks and no one wants to talk about it

Well I’ve been here for about a year now and I must say college is horrible. The long hours of studying, the mind boggling test, gee I don’t even know if I can make another two and half years of this. Why is this even a thing? College? You would think they would make it better since you cannot get a Big Girl/ Big Boy job without a degree. Actually, now a days you can barely get one with a degree. But you see the tests are awful, the degrees seem unattainable, and yet everyone seems to say these are the best days of our lives. The few reasons I absolutely hate college have to be the following:

I get to pick my own classes
God how awful. I get to choose when I have class, what they are, and even who I have them with. Also get this, I can take half of my classes online. Not only do I get to choose my classes based off of its convenience for me, I can also pick it based off the teacher. The classes are handpicked for me by me and honestly that is just awful. I mean really? I am how old, and I get the opportunity to pick what education I want and get? God please help me.

Freedom

Well I am off on my own no longer under my parent’s roof, I get free reign of the world. Want to take a road trip? I can. Want to sleep all day? I can do that too. I have no one to report to, not a single person to tell my day to, its honestly the worst. Please mom and dad come nag me about my unmade bed, and tell me I should be studying more and watching Netflix left, cause the world without rules is honestly horrifying me.

Friends

My high school friends and I have all chosen different paths and well as much as that is great, it forced us to replace each other with new people at school. Yeah ya know the people here are just awful, they are so funny, love adventures, and ugh get this, we like the same stuff. Who could bare that? They love late night excursions and they even like ½ apps and going for food at 2 am.

I guess its pretty obvious how much I really REALLY hate college. How much I dislike picking my own classes, having endless amounts of freedom, and oh yea how I have met some of the best people while I have been here at school. So yeah definitely don’t give college a chance if you don’t want to experience the best time of your life.

If I have learned one thing in my lifetime, it is that friends are a privilege. No one is required to give you their company and yet there is some sort of shared connection that keeps you together. And from that friendship, you may even find yourself lucky enough to have a few more friends, thus forming a group. Here are just a few signs that prove your current friend group is the ultimate friend group.

When it comes to television, there’s very few sets of on-screen siblings that a lot of us can relate to. Only those who have grown up with siblings knows what it feels like to fight, prank, and love a sibling. Ross and Monica Geller were definitely overbearing and overshared some things through the series of "Friends," but they captured perfectly what real siblings feel in real life. Some of their antics were funny, some were a little weird but all of them are completely relatable to brothers and sisters everywhere.

College is a great place to meet people, especially through Greek life. If you look closely at sororities, you'll quickly see there are many different types of girls you will meet.

1. The Legacy.

Her sister was a member, her mom was a member, all of her aunts were members, and her grandma was a member. She has been waiting her whole life to wear these letters and cried hysterically on bid day. Although she can act entitled at times, you can bet she is one of the most enthusiastic sisters.

Every kid in college and/or high school dreams of summer the moment they walk through the door on the first day back in September. It becomes harder and harder to focus in classes and while doing assignments as the days get closer. The winter has been lagging, the days are short and dark, and no one is quite themselves due to lack of energy and sunlight. Let's face it: life is ten times better in the summertime.
