The life of a college student is hectic. Each week students have class, homework, reading, tests, quizzes, jobs, clubs and other extracurricular activities while still being expected to make time for a social life. There are a few stages that every College of Charleston student goes through.

1. Having absolutely no money to do anything with friends

2. Waking up and having to deal with all the people you don't want to deal with

3. Writing an essay and having no idea what you’re writing about

4. When someone keeps asking the dumbest questions in class and you just want them to shut up and let the professor teach

5. Trying to be nice to someone and then realizing they're not worth your time

6. Thinking walking across the Cistern won't matter, but then freaking out that you actually did it and won't graduate

7. Applying for jobs and being asked about your weaknesses

8. Pulling an all nighter and then having to go to an exam

9. When something in your life actually goes according to the plan

10. Sleeping in and not going to your first class

11. That moment when you realize you’re close to the freshman 15 so you make your friend eat more healthily with you


12. When it has been a long day and you finally get a break

13. When your family asks how your semester is going

14. When someone says to you that you eat way too much


15. When you have no food so you resort to stealing some from your roommates

16. When you study for hours on end, and you still fail

17. When you spread yourself so thin, you literally save every second possible


18. No matter how stressful it is, you wouldn’t change a thing

Although college students tend to spread themselves very thin and they have to participate in many activities, college is a wonderful time for everyone to figure out what they want to do with their lives. Although it can be hectic and stressful, it is worth all the stress to see what you can become.

    Chandler Bing

    I'm assuming that we've all heard of the hit 90's TV series, Friends, right? Who hasn't? Admittedly, I had pretty low expectations when I first started binge watching the show on Netflix, but I quickly became addicted.

    Without a doubt, Chandler Bing is the most relatable character, and there isn't an episode where I don't find myself thinking, Yup, Iam definitely the Chandler of my friend group.

    Working with the public can be a job, in and of itself. Some people are just plain rude for no reason. But regardless of how your day is going, always having to be in the best of moods, or at least act like it... right?

    1. When a customer wants to return a product, hands you the receipt, where is printed "ALL SALES ARE FINAL" in all caps.

    2. Just because you might be having a bad day, and you're in a crappy mood, doesn't make it okay for you to yell at me or be rude to me. I'm a person with feelings, just like you.

    3. People refusing to be put on hold when a customer is standing right in front of you. Oh, how I wish I could just hang up on you!

    Another day, another Elle Woods comment. Can’t us blondes get through the day without someone harping at us over the typical stereotypes about who we are? I never understood why a person was judged based upon the hair color they were born with, or the hair color they choose to have (unless you dye your hair blue like Kylie Jenner, I’m still trying to understand why that’s a trend). Nevertheless, as it should be assumed, not everyone is the same. Not all blondes like bright colors and Lilly Pulitzer, and not all blondes claim to identify with Marilyn Monroe. I think the best suggestion to give to people before they make such radical claims is to stop judging a book by its cover. Or in this case, stop judging a blonde by her hair color.
