Six Struggles… Every College Student Faces

Ah, the student life. Three or four glorious years spent making lifelong friends, soaking up campus life and generally feeling like you're ready to take over the world. But between all of the parties, all-nighters and road-sign stealing, there are a certain set of challenges every college student faces.  Here are six struggles every student will recognise... 1. Becoming completely addicted to a new Netflix series... The week an all-important essay is due. There is no getting around this. The episodes are waiting to be watched, and nobody else is going to do it for you. The trouble is nobody else is going to write that essay either. 2. Being greeted with this sight.... In the bathroom of your student house. Every single week. 3. Sitting in the library all day... And reaching the end of the day without accomplishing anything. Nothing. Absolutely nada. 4. Realising how much textbooks actually cost... And how many you're going to have to buy every term. 5. Going back over old notes before exams... To find every single sentence highlighted. Why did you think it was a good idea to do that? Why? 6. Surviving on a diet... Of beans and toast, cheese toasties and frozen pizzas. For four long years. This article is brought to you by KBC.
