11 Things You Think About During Class
Some of your best ideas come through boredom.
No matter how long your class is, there's always time for the mind to wander. Much like taking a shower or trying to fall asleep, sitting in a classroom can be a time when you get some of your best ideas. But, more than likely, you're probably just trying to mentally cope with listening to a boring lecturer drone on and on. Perhaps some of the following Aristotle-esque thoughts have popped into your head during class.
1. If the professor is late by one minute, I'm leaving.
15 minute grace period? Mmm, yeah, not so much. You were on time to class, and you don't have time for slackers.
2. Oh crap, that's due TODAY?!
Ah yes, the delightful moment when you've been so preoccupied with other assignments that you forgot about one from another class. Classic. Cue the inevitable "head desk."
3. Can I nap in here?
Let's be real, you probably aren't paying attention anyway.
4. I wonder what they're serving at the cafeteria.
What will you have for lunch? You're starving. You hope it isn't mystery pizza or half-frozen salad. Your only hope is that the cereal machines are stocked.
5. How much does my teacher even get paid?
You'd bet your last Ramen noodle packet that the professor is just as bored as you are. You wonder how much they're getting paid. It can't be too much, or they would be more excited.
6. How much will I get paid?
Let's face it, you'll be paying off student loans long after college. But it sure is nice to remind yourself what you're working for when the lecture seems to be going on forever.
7. This is the longest 50 minutes of my life.
There are so many other things you could be doing right now. Such as, figuring out how you're going to pay off debt and also fund your future corgi-farm. So much to do, so little time.
8. Maybe if I call mom, she'll give me money.
Crank up those tears, make sure your voice sounds nice and wobbly, and who knows! You could score some sympathy money or a care package.
9. How much do street performers make anyway?
Juggling for a living sounds way more fun than this. Maybe you could even ride a unicycle, or make yourself disappear!
10. Why am I here? I could be a street performer by now.
Wow, you'd make quite a living as a street performer. Even if street performing doesn't work out, you could totally do something else, right?
11. Oh right, I'm not talented.
You can barely make it up the stairs to class, much less perform for a living. Well, "this is it," you guess. You're resigned to a boring, conventional, existence with a stable job.
The good news is, that's not true! You're super talented. Making it into college and learning how to function on minimal sleep and dirty clothes most certainly requires creativity and hard-work. You could totally street perform! Or ... get a regular, well-paying job. The choice is yours. Good luck, fellow padawans.
