Struggles of a College Student

Second Semester As Told By Family Guy

College is really tough. First semester is hard enough because you've been off for three months for the summer, but second semester is definitely harder. We had only one month off of school, which is basically a tease. Right when you get used to waking up late and the freedom of having no classes or homework, it's time to go back to school. Waking up at 8 AM after a month off for Christmas break really isn't my cup of tea. It was hard enough leaving my family and friends back home, and now I have to actually wake up before noon to attend classes and do homework. Here is my perspective of second semester as told by Family Guy.

1. Although you missed all of your friends, you really aren't ready to wake up at 8 AM for a full day of classes.

So instead, you sit in bed contemplating if school is really worth it.


2. You go to your first day of class, which is "Syllabus Day."

When you find out that your professor doesn't take attendance.


3. But then your professor says there will be a group project and you don't get to pick your partner.


4. But (luckily) you get partnered with your best friend to complete the project anyways.


5. Coffee

Before you begin talking about any project, homework, or anything else for that matter, you must have your (second) daily dose of coffee.

6. Not even coffee can get you through lecture classes

Those are the absolute worst.

7. You know what sucks more than lecture classes? Mondays.


8. And if there's an exam on a Monday morning, you can forget studying.

But by some miracle you got an A.


9. If someone reminds the teacher about collecting homework, you immediately hate them


10. Being in college also means being in debt

So, checking your credit card statement is always disappointing.

11. Food

But let's be honest, half your money went to buying food. So, forget the freshman 15. It's more like the junior 30.


12. Since you've gained some weight in college, you try and get your daily exercise in before bed



13. When your professor tells you there is no study guide for the cumulative final


14. Then you reminisce about when you were a kid who so desperately wanted to grow up

And now you're like, "What was I thinking?"

Although college is tough and requires hard work, I've definitely met some amazing people and wouldn't change it for anything. Despite all of the studying, college is fun. I mean, college is supposed to be the best times of your life! So, enjoy it. And maybe you should try studying for those exams next time. Or not. Either one.

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.

I'll admit it, I have a condition called RBF or, if you will, Resting Bitch Face.

Anna Kendrick, poor Kristen Stewart, the Queen of England are all life-long sufferers of RBF. Victoria Beckham even made a career out of it! And though it's usually used to describe women, some men are also afflicted. Kanye West is the best example of this.
