The Life Of A College Student, Told By GIFs

With almost two years of undergraduate schooling under my belt, I feel as if I have learned a few things along the way. Although my collegiate career hasn't gone without a few hiccups here and there, I do feel that I have had experiences similar to other college students. So, in honor to commemorate the best four years of our lives, here's to college life.

1. When you don't think you'll gain the "Freshman 15", but you end up gaining twice that.

2. You contemplate dropping out of college at least twice a day.

3. You'll go to any event on campus that advertises free food, since you're a broke college student.

4. You take five hour naps so you can account for the sleep you'll miss, because you'll be cramming for that huge Stats exam.

5. When you have that ultra liberal or ultra conservative, know-it-all in your three hour lecture.

6. When the professor specifically says they will not curve on exams, and the grade you get is the grade you get.

7. You check your bank account thinking you have thousands of dollars, but you have an overdraft fee, because you spent all of that money on alcohol.

8. Your campus doesn't allow on-campus fraternity or sorority houses, so there's designated houses right across the street.

9. You're notoriously late to everything, no matter how early you try to get up.

10. You have no money to buy groceries, because again, you spent all your money on beer and room decor.

11. You've been up consecutive days studying for an exam that will have no importance to your major or college degree.

And finally,

12. You'll be in debt the rest of your life thanks to the Federal Government and student loans.


So if you're ready for the best four years of your life, then welcome to:

In honor of Mother’s Day, I have been thinking of all the things my mom does for my family and me. Although I couldn’t write nearly all of them, here are a few things that moms do for us.

They find that shirt that’s right in front of you, but just you can’t seem to find.

Thank You on wooden blocks

1. Thank you for being the one I can always count on to be honest.

A true friend will tell you if the shirt is ugly, or at least ask to borrow it and "accidentally" burn it.

2. Thank you for accepting me for who I am.

A best friend will love you regardless of the stale french fries you left on the floor of your car, or when you had lice in 8th grade and no one wanted to talk to you.

You're away from home and your mom who can take care of you and all you really want to do is just be in your own bed.

Do as I say, not as I do.

Your eyes widen in horror as you stare at your phone. Beads of sweat begin to saturate your palm as your fingers tremble in fear. The illuminated screen reads, "Missed Call: Mom."

Growing up with strict parents, you learn that a few things go unsaid. Manners are everything. Never talk back. Do as you're told without question. Most importantly, you develop a system and catch on to these quirks that strict parents have so that you can play their game and do what you want.

"Friends" maybe didn’t have everything right or realistic all the time, but they did have enough episodes to create countless reaction GIFs and enough awesomeness to create, well, the legacy they did. Something else that is timeless, a little rough, but memorable? Living away from the comforts of home. Whether you have an apartment, a dorm, your first house, or some sort of residence that is not the house you grew up in, I’m sure you can relate to most of these!
