College As Told By Disney Characters

I feel that in my soul.

College As Told By Disney Characters

Every college student's schedule is different. For those who go to a bigger university, getting ready for and leaving your room/apartment for class involves a lot of planning. For those who go to a smaller school like I do, it usually involves leaving at most 15 minutes from your dorm if you live on campus. To help those of you who aren't aware or those of you who can totally relate to what an average day for a college student looks like, here are a few of our favorite Disney characters to help describe what it's like to be a college student.

Waking Up

In high school, it wasn't hard to wake up at 6 am to be at school by 7:30, right? An 8 am is so doable... WRONG. You have never been so wrong in your life. Unless you're one of those morning people that are up before the sun, it's never been harder getting out of bed. At best, you leave your room 10 minutes before class if you go to a small school wearing comfy clothes. Maybe you rolled out of bed with those clothes on.

Sitting in Class

Let's be honest. Unless you're super interested in the class, this is you daily. We all daydream in class - even the kids who get straight A's. It's especially easy to stare off into the distance wishing you were anywhere but there in bigger classes. Class becomes a lot of "Okay, I only have 30 minutes left in this class. That's three 10 minutes, six 5 minutes..."

Extracurricular Activities

There are a vast number of activities outside of classes that you could be involved in. They range anywhere from fraternities and sororities to sports teams. Many of the people you call your friends may be involved in these extracurriculars with you. If you're like me, for some odd reason, you've decided to involve yourself in just about everything possible. But, the more involvement, the better. Not only can many of these activities be fun, but many of them look good on résumés!

College Food

Sometimes, the cafeteria surprises you with a pretty good meal. But let's get down to the nitty-gritty. More often than not, that chicken they're serving makes you wonder. Don't pass it all up, though. Sometimes something may look like a pile of mush they serve at prisons. Don't be afraid of it and try it. It won't hurt you. So we hope.

Hanging Out With Friends


Outside of class, homework, and other activities, there is something we college kids refer to as "free time". If we aren't tired, we usually try and hang out with friends. Sometimes it's something simple as just talking about what happened to you that day. Maybe you even have time to go to a sporting event at your school together. Whatever it is, you try to squeeze in as much BFF time as you can.

Loving Your School

Even with all of the craziness going on in your life, you absolutely love being a college student. It may be hard to adjust at first, but once you get used to the fast paced environment and learn to manage your time decently, you'll have a blast. Get involved with an organization or two, go to at least one sporting event if possible, and branch out to make friends. It's an experience of a lifetime. You'll never know who you'll meet, so take every opportunity you get!

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

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.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. 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.
