The Struggles Of College As Told By 'Grey's Anatomy'

Grey's Anatomy may take place in a hospital, but I think we all know that it really outlines all struggles we face in life, especially through college. It's like the characters are actually talking to us a lot of the time, or sometimes it's like they're taking the words right out of our mouths.

1. Those days your roommate has to coax you out of bed to make you go to classes.

2. When you try to participate in class, but your professor tells you your answer is wrong.

3. We all know that one student (or professor)....

4. After that exam you know you failed...

5. Those nights you know you should be going to the gym, but you just can't make it.

6. When you're the only one of your friends that failed the exam...

7. After a long day of classes with no breaks in between.

8. To the friend who tries to drag you down after you finally have a good day, but they don't.

9. After your professors say, "You'll do really well in this class, as long as you put in the work".

10. Whenever your professor tries to say "one last thing" after the class time ends...

11. During the holiday season when your family asks why you're not involved in more activities.

12. After a fun night and you ask your friend if they're okay.

13. How to explain to other students who've never taken a class with the professor you have.

14. When a professor tells you, "This isn't your best work".

15. Waking up that morning and realizing you have an exam.

16. At the end of a long week...

17. Two words: Group. Project.

18. When you find out all of your friends passed their exams.

19. Looking at your grades in the final weeks of the semester.

20. But, at the end of the day you know you'll end up getting through it all.

Today I started my third week of college at Minnesota State Moorhead. I have survived welcome week, finding my classes on the first day, and being an awkward loner in the dining hall. Even though I have yet to be here for a month, I have already experienced many thoughts and problems that only a new college student can relate to.

"Make sure to get involved when you're in college!"

We've all heard some variation of this phrase, whether it came from parents, other family members, friends, RAs, or college-related articles. And, like many clichés, it's true for the most part. Getting involved during your college years can help you make friends, build your resume, and feel connected to your campus. However, these commitments can get stressful if you're dealing with personal issues, need to work, or aren't sure how to balance classes and everything else going on during the semester.

In college, one of the essential things to have is friends. Yes, textbooks, a laptop, and other school supplies are important but friends are essential. Friends are that support system everybody needs. The more friends you have the better the support system you have. But you also have someone to share experiences with. And don’t settle for just one or two friends because 8 out of 10 times they are busy and you are studying all alone. Or they have other friend groups that do not include you. Don’t settle for just one or two friends; make as many friends as you can. After the first couple of weeks of college, most friend groups are set and you may be without friends.

For a moment your world is spinning. The phone alarm has just scared you awake and you’re flooded by daunting thoughts of the day ahead. You have three assignments due and little time to work on them because of your job. You’re running late because you’ve hit snooze one to many times after yesterday’s long hours. You dizzily reach for a hoodie, craving its comfort, and rush for a speedy exit, praying you will have time to pick up coffee. Does this sound familiar?
