Students' Reactions To Their St. Patrick's Day Shenanigans

The Huffington Post

This St. Patrick's Day, I went home from college because I had a ton of work to do. Honestly, our Spring Break is next week and the professors could not be cramming any more work in last minute. I'm not quite sure how students found time to celebrate. Bored at home, I decided to ask friends, and friends of friends around the country (but mostly the East Coast) what their St. Patrick's Day was like in one sentence or word. Let me know how it compares to yours! All i hope is that it was fun, but safe.

At least at the University of Delaware, St. Patrick's Day is supposed to be the most fun weekend of the year. I think a lot of students spent the day with close friends, which maybe is what it's really all about. It seems like there are some recurring themes that it may have been a little overrated this year? What did you think?

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.

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.

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.
