10 Overtly Honest Realities About Being A College Student
12:24:00 PMHey Friends!
How was your weekend? Mine was jam-packed full of homework and working on presentations, but I am so ready to get this week started.
Here is the reality. We all wished when we were in middle school that we could just be in high school with the cool kids. And don't get me started on high school. This chicken patty eating, Hollister wearing girl wished so bad to be in college like all those other cool kids. Reality check. I take it all back. College is not all it's cracked up to be. I just wish I could be like those cool adults who have houses and puppies and make a lot of money. (I am sure I will be taking that back someday as well.)
Why couldn't I have been prepared more? I legit feel like I am still being thrown into these classes with a paper bag over my head that won't come off. Most of my professor's say things like, "Remember in Chemistry 105…we looked at…." I'm thinking to myself, Chem 105, did I even take that class? Well if I did I certainly didn't take it with this guy because I would have remembered that belly showing all through class; and especially the way it rubs the chalk off the chalk-board. No, I definitely didn't take that class…o wait, haha, I had to take it because it's a prerequisite for this class (wait, every class is essentially a prerequisite). Ok, so I now know I took that class. I don't remember anything from it. Shoot. O crap, I just wasted 10 minutes thinking about this, ugh what did the professor just say?
You get the picture. There are so many other things I wish I would have known and as a senior in my last semester I'm still learning these harsh realities.
1. In high school you look at so many pictures of dorm rooms and apartments that college students live in, but little do you realize that these are just ploys and made-up sets to get you to go to that particular college and think it actually looks that glamorous. We can't all have the dorm rooms that come out of Pottery Barn Teen.
