Transcript

things that happen in college when you're already overstimulated College decides to host high school tours and they're all over the campus walking two miles per hour in big groups and not allowing you to walk past. You're trying to turn your assignment in at 11:59 and the Wi-Fi on campus just decides to go out. It's pouring raining, you just missed the shuttle and guess what? You don't have an umbrella so now you have to walk to class in the rain. You just failed a test and the Jehovah witnesses are on campus trying to minister to you. Financial aid emails you at 4:50 telling you that you have to pay them 6 bands or you're going to get dropped from your classes. Your advisor tells you that you've been taking the wrong courses all semester and now you're set back two semesters until you graduate. You rush to class because you think that you're late just to get there and the professor isn't even there yet and then sends an email after y'all have been sitting there for 10 minutes to say that they meant to cancel classes. You finish a 500-word assignment just to go submit it and it says to respond to two classmates, three hundred fifty words.
