The Struggle Bus Is Real

All of us have bad days – some of us are probably even having a rough day right now. This article is for you. These are some of the most common causes of feeling like you’re riding the struggle bus. Don’t worry. You’re not alone.

You continue to write ‘2016’ on all of your papers.

We’re already a month into 2017 and I can’t tell you how many times I’ve written 2016 on papers. It’s a small mistake but it’ll get you every time.

You repeatedly dress for the wrong weather.

Ohio weather is always unpredictable, but this winter has been something else. As soon as you get used to the rain, it gets super cold. Then two days later you’re wearing shorts. You keep having to go right back inside to change because of the drastic weather changes.

You can’t remember what day it is.

The days are blending together. Whether you show up at the wrong class or just can’t figure out the day in your head, you’re riding the struggle bus and should find some way to figure it out.

You misplaced your phone while it was in your hand.

You opened the fridge and forgot what you went in there to get.

“Oh I was just coming in here to get the…” It’s incredibly easy to do when you’re multitasking.

You don’t remember where you parked your car.

If you use your car every day, you can get your days mixed up. This is the most time consuming struggle bus ride to finish because you might not be in the correct parking lot or on the correct street.

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.

Do as I say, not as I do.

"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.

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!
