A List Of The Weirdest Things I've Done In College

College is a great time for learning and finding out who you are. Many people use their four years in school to become active in organizations and clubs. Some just have a good time. I like to believe I'm healthy medium between all these. Before you go to school, you read articles telling you about how to love living with a roommate or spice up ramen. But no one talks about the weird stuff that happens to you once you and your peers find all this new found freedom.

1. Sat on a King size bed and ate Jell-O shots until I blacked out. What was the occasion? Death of a Bachelor was released.

2. Woke up in a bedroom that had a machete stuck in the wall.

3. Kept Halloween decorations up the entire time I lived in a house.

4. Made "sangria" that actually was just 7 bottles of $3 wine poured together in a pitcher with fruit. And then we proceeded to drink it out of the empty wine bottles instead of glasses. This then became our house drink.

5. Drove an hour and a half to the neighboring state with my best friend just to find an ice skating rink.

6. Drove thirteen hours with some of my sorority sisters to Iowa to see Bernie Sanders. We planned the whole trip in a matter of 5-6 hours.

7. On the Iowa trip, I got a selfie with Ezra Koenig, the lead singer of Vampire Weekend.

8. In order to chase out the party straggler's in my house, I played Rebecca Black's song Friday through the speakers.

9. The waiters at Applebee's add us on snapchat and expect us at the same time every week.

10. Bought a gecko as a pet because an upperclassmen had one, and I wanted to be cool.

11. The cafeteria's hot water went out so they served all the food on Styrofoam plates.

12. Went to the Amtrak station in a neighboring town, told people I was hopping on a train to Rhode Island.

We also stole a saw horse on the trip for no reason. Then proceeded to tell people that we brought a horse back from Rhode Island.

13. Took ski lessons as a college credit. And then twisted my knee and had to be dragged down the mountain in a tarp by ski patrol.

14. Swam in a truck pool. On multiple occasions.

15. Stole fancy cheese from Wal-Mart because I didn't want to pay $8 for gouda, but I wanted the wine & cheese party to be a success.

16. Made people shots of bottom shelf vodka and hot sauce.

When I took the shot, I ended up throwing up blood.

If I have learned one thing in my lifetime, it is that friends are a privilege. No one is required to give you their company and yet there is some sort of shared connection that keeps you together.

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.

College is a great place to meet people, especially through Greek life. If you look closely at sororities, you'll quickly see there are many different types of girls you will meet.

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. It becomes harder and harder to focus in classes and while doing assignments as the days get closer.
