10 Times Every College Student Felt Like Ron Swanson, Even More Than Ron Swanson

In college, there are lots of tv shows that are the staples of college culture. These shows are commonly watched by everyone on campus because everyone can relate to their characters on a deep level. Today we discuss how Ron Swanson is one of those characters.

1. When your assignments quickly pile up.

We've all been there. You're just chugging through life getting the work grind on, and then just like a brick to the face, you have 7 essays, six participations, 3 exams, 5 quizzes all in the same week.

2. When you don't want to go to the doctor because your parents aren't there.

Part of college is learning how to adult on your own. Part of adulting on your own is knowing when to seek medical attention and without the assistance of your mother answering all of the doctors' questions for you.

3. When someone takes your un-assinged assigned seat.

It is a common law that after the first week of school there is a set seating arrangement. It is an unspoken law, but it is just one everyone knows. If one is to break the seating arrangement law, they will face the wrath of the class. And by wrath we mean, dirty looks.

4. When you try to keep up with pop-culture.

Sometimes college preoccupies us from tuning into what is happening in pop-culture that when we come back to it, it's foreign to us.

5. "Please tell the class your name, major, and where you are from."

We all know this situation all too well. However, despite having everyone go around the room and tell everyone those simple fact, none of us are going to remember anyone. We came to class for the participation points.

6. When your professor moves a deadline back.

If you ever see someone on campus smiling like this, everyone knows a deadline got pushed back.

7. Trying to maintain a healthy diet.

Let's face it, eating healthy on campus is difficult, especially when you don't like healthy food to begin with.

8. Trying to find parking on campus.

media.giphy.com

Some campuses have great parking, and others do not. Sometimes your car is parked on the opposite end of campus and you have no motivation to drive due to the long journey ahead and also not remembering where in the parking garage you parked it.

9. Eating cereal for dinner.

FACT: Cereal counts as a meal at any time of day. Breakfast, lunch, dinner and even dessert!

10. When your professor lets the class go early.

This goes without an explanation.

5 Things To Do That Are Better Than Writing A Paper

Don't waste your time trying to write that paper when there are so many more interesting things you could be doing.

Writing a paper is never fun and is rarely rewarding. The writer's block, the page requirement, be specific, but don’t summarize, make sure you fixed any grammatical errors, did you even use spellcheck? and analyze, analyze, analyze.

Papers can be a major pain. They take up so much time and effort that by the end of the process you hate yourself and you hate the professor for making life so difficult. Questions of your existence start roaming in your mind. Am I even cut out for college if I can’t write a single paper? Am I even capable of taking care of myself if I lack the energy to open my laptop and start typing?

I can barely remember back when I was the only child. Most would say it’s because it is extremely difficult to remember things as a toddler but I would say it's because I was bored until my sister came along. My mother always says how important the "sister bond" is and with every year that passes I realize how right she is. Instead of writing a novel about all of the wonderful things there are about having a sister I decided to list a few of them instead.

It is the time of our lives that we are beginning to enter the adult world and most of us, if not all of us, have no idea what we are doing. It's like starting a video game, but skipping the tutorial. We're all just running around aimlessly hoping we accidentally do something right that moves us along the right path. Now that graduation has just happened, or is right around the corner for some of us, it's time to start thinking about how we are going to take care of ourselves once we are on our own.
