10 Ways College Students And Cats Are The Same

People say cats are animals that aren't very affectionate, not as cute and playful as dogs, and pretty much just there so we can feed and clean up after them. These things are kinda true (oh well), but that doesn't matter because your cat is pretty much exactly like you.

You guys both nap, like, all the time.

They know your struggle—when in doubt, nap it out.

They don't judge you.

Be it for that third slice or third glass of wine, they never nag you about it (mostly because they can't, but still).

They're down to cuddle.

There's nothing better than laying in bed and feeling the cat purring on your feet. Yeah, you can't move them, and you're basically immobile, but the cuteness factor outweighs that.

Wanna do nothing all day? They're down!

Cats are just as lazy as the rest of us. They get that some days just have to be spent in bed, no pants on, snacks everywhere, and Netflix on your computer.

They're always eating.

Snacking is an essential part of life, almost an art form. Cats gets that—if they didn't they wouldn't be nagging for food all the time.

They like to lay in the sun.

Nothing compares to laying in the sun all day, soaking up vitamin D (not that kind), and getting that sun-kissed glow. Somehow cats find that perfect spot where the light shines through the blinds and glue themselves there forever because it just feels that good. Same cat, same.

They always want to go out.

Once cats get to go out, that's all they want to do. They're basically college kids like that, except they get to go out all day, and thanks to a little thing called class, we don't (or at least we shouldn't).

They have their comfy spots, and those spots are theirs.

We've all got that one place that is just ours. It's a seat at the dinner table, a place on the couch, or a small spot that we find unbelievably comfortable. Whatever it is, it's ours. Cats are exactly like that—they've got their weird spot and you've got yours.

They sleep in the weirdest positions.

Ever woken up in a completely different spot than where you slept? Started off all delicate and peaceful with your head on your pillow and woken up with it hanging off the side of the bed sleeping sideways. Furry felines are like that too, or sometimes they just sleep weirdly and wake up even weirder. Whatever, no judgement.

They just get it.

Cats are basically college kids, except those guys don't have to deal with all the actual schoolwork, just the laziness that comes with it.

Cats are college kids trapped in fur coats, with nothing to do except chill. So who does one call about becoming one? Asking for a friend.

6 Signs You Are An English Major

There are various stereotypes about college students, most of which revolve around the concept of your major. Unfortunately, we often let stereotypes precede our own judgments, and we take what information is immediately available to us rather than forming our own opinions after considerable reflection. If I got a dollar for every time my friends have made a joke about my major I could pay my tuition. One stereotype on campus is the sensitive, overly critical and rigid English major. Here are six telltale signs you are one of them.

When you were little, your parents probably told you television makes your brain rot so you wouldn't watch it for twelve straight hours. However, I feel we can learn some pretty valuable stuff from television shows. "The Office," while a comedy, has some pretty teachable moments thrown in there. You may not know how to react in a situation where a co-worker does something crazy (like put your office supplies in jello) but thanks to "The Office," now you'll have an idea how to behave ifsomething like that should happen.

Here are just a few of the things that religious Office watchers can expect to learn.

High School And College Sucked All Of The Fun Out Of Reading

Books were always about understanding for me, about learning the way someone else sees, about connection.

High School And College Sucked All Of The Fun Out Of Reading

I keep making this joke whenever the idea of books is brought up: "God, I wish I knew how to read." It runs parallel to another stupid phrase, as I watch my friends struggle through their calculus classes late at night in our floor lounge: "I hope this is the year that I learn to count." They're both truly idiotic expressions, but, when I consider the former, I sometimes wonder if there's some truth to it.

One Book Made Me Question Existence In Its Entirety

"The Stranger" by Albert Campus touches upon many heavy elements... but not in the way you expect. Although it touches upon the aspects of death and love, it also deals with a hidden philosophy similar to that of nihilism.

The story follows the short life events of Meursault, a Frenchman whose carelessness for his actions eventually ends him in jail and dependent on a jury of people to judge the ethicality of his decision and the punishment that he deserves. He eventually gets the death penalty and all throughout he is nonchalant and almost apathetic towards his situation. He finally snaps when the prison sends a priest to him to absolve him of his sins and to cajole him in confessing to the lord.
