Being a bookworm in college is one of the hardest things that no one warned me about.

The Struggles Of Being A Bookworm In College

While you're in college, you begin to learn all of these new things, experience adventures, and create new memories. It's difficult to find time for yourself though, especially when it comes to something that you love to do. If you're a bookworm like me, you know that it's difficult to get your fix of reading in while at school. So how does a bookworm make time for reading? Or how do we cope with the fact that there's less time to do so? Here are the struggles of a bookworm in college.

1. We have other reading assignments to do instead

2. When we do have a moment to read, we're constantly interrupted

3. We want to start a series, but know it'll take ten thousand years to finish

4. Weekends are really the only free time we have to read

5. Buying books is impossible because we're even more broke than before

6. We tend to replace reading with binge watching something on Netflix

7. It's upsetting when we can't buy a new book that recently came out because our TBR pile is to the ceiling

8. There is never any peace and quiet around!

9. As much as we want to ignore our school work, we really can't

10. We wait for winter break and long weekends like there's no tomorrow

And from that friendship, you may even find yourself lucky enough to have a few more friends, thus forming a group. Here are just a few signs that prove your current friend group is the ultimate friend group.

When it comes to television, there’s very few sets of on-screen siblings that a lot of us can relate to. Only those who have grown up with siblings knows what it feels like to fight, prank, and love a sibling. Ross and Monica Geller were definitely overbearing and overshared some things through the series of "Friends," but they captured perfectly what real siblings feel in real life. Some of their antics were funny, some were a little weird but all of them are completely relatable to brothers and sisters everywhere.

1. The Legacy.

Her sister was a member, her mom was a member, all of her aunts were members, and her grandma was a member. She has been waiting her whole life to wear these letters and cried hysterically on bid day. Although she can act entitled at times, you can bet she is one of the most enthusiastic sisters.

Every kid in college and/or high school dreams of summer the moment they walk through the door on the first day back in September.
