College students have many frustrations: tuition, difficult classes, too much to do, relationship problems, and more. It's hard to express your frustrations to others in person as they often are going through the same thing and don't want to hear you complain about it. So, us college students often take said frustrations to social media where no one will judge us but instead boost our ego up by favoriting and retweeting. Here are twenty-one tweets that perfectly summarize being a college student.
1. Stair Struggles
Stairs suck. College has a lot of them. My fitbit goal is always reached.
2. Balance
Good question, Rob. I think the answer is no. But if someone says yes, please let me know too.
3. Oh, Tests!
You try to do well on one and then that one doesn't turn out well and it ruins the rest of them. It's like a domino effect.
4. Trampoline
Honestly, I've never read anything more accurate than this. This is how it feels every day.
5. Pause, Please
I think I'll take a month if we can do this.
6. Cycle of Assignments
Honestly, this is embarrassing, but I check my blackboard when I'm out. Like that's how often it updates. You'd think professors would want a break too. Apparently not.
7. The Weekend
You try to be productive and it doesn't end up turning out that way. And then everything you pushed off needs to be done on Sunday and it goes from a day of relaxation to a day of trying not to cry.
8. Race
I can't tell which one I'll be more upset about getting there first.
9. Forget Me Not
There's so much to remember, and honestly I forget a lot of it. Until right before it's due. Then I remember it.
10. High School vs. College
You daze off for a few seconds and you're already on the next chapter. And then you're behind everyone else. And you freak out and you know you're stuck.
11. Questions of College
College stresses you out and makes you ask yourself too many questions that you shouldn't be asking. Makes you overthink everything, overthink life. It's awful.
12. Mom?
You want to be independent from your parents and have them realize you can do it on your own. But you also want to be able to eat and you can't do that without them.
13. Always Tired
You will always be tired. Oh, you slept in on Saturday and got twelve hours of sleep? You're still going to be tired because last week you probably got a total of twelve all together. So yeah, you're still tired.
14. L's
You win some and you lose some. You just lose a lot more in college. So yes, some L's are necessary when spelling college.
15. College Halloween
Enough said.
16. Never Graduating
Never graduating. Not on purpose. Just because college is so hard I will not be able to graduate. Amen, sister.
17. Grade Obsessed
Yes, I can't help it. I'm obsessed with grades. However, I never learned to study. As you can see this is a conflict of interest.
18. In a Nutshell
So many different feelings. So many different options. So much to do. And there's only one of me.
19. Chasing You
You're running pretty fast but all those other things, responsibility, sleep, deadlines, are all right on your tail and they're not going to let up. They just keep chasing after you.
20. Long Week
Your days are so long they feel like an entire week. It feels like you went through seven weeks in one week. It's exhausting.
21. Questioning Life
College makes you question your entire life. You wonder if you went to the right school, if you picked the right major, if you're wearing the right shirt today, if you said the right thing to that lady behind the cash register. Literally everything.
College is exhausting, frustrating, hard work, time, and money. College takes a lot out of you but gives a lot back to you. I think these are the perfect twenty-one tweets to showcase what it really feels like to be a college student, no holding back or giving it to you sweet. This is what it feels like to be in college.
