#44 Energy Drinks

Since college people are already sleep deprived, it makes perfect sense to them to continue that trend. As mentioned in post #43, college people have their schedules packed to the brim, and a lot of energy is wasted in the process. So in order to fill that wasted energy, college people turn to the ultimate “quick-fix” energy booster known: Energy Drinks.

They come in cylindrical shapes and have strange names like Red Bull, Monster, or Rockstar. Some college people get intimidated by just the name itself. Which in turn causes them to consume them, because as we know, college people like to experiment. But that’s besides the point. The point is, is that college people consume these drinks like mad.

College people love the extra buzz they get from them. Compare it to a young child putting ice down their shirt in order to stay up until midnight to watch the fireworks on New Years Eve, well in the case of a college student, the ice is the energy drink. Whenever a college student feels slightly tired or “out of it” another energy drink is gulped. The process repeats itself until they’re so filled up with caffeine that they no longer can concentrate or are so hyper that they practically pass out.

If you’re walking around and see a college student flapping like a dieing fish or shaking uncontrollably then you know they’ve probably have had a little “energy drink overload” episode. This is not a good thing. Seek help immediately.

In the end, there’s something about college people and energy drinks that fit well together. It’s the fact that college people love having a fun, crazy-filled time, all the time, and energy drinks just happen to make the experience a lot crazier, flashier, and greater. It’s the latest trend these days. Maybe it’s just a passing fad—a hyper fad that is.

#43 Napping

Excessively tired, chronic sleep deprived college people enjoy napping to the max. And since many college people fit that description, napping happens to be a very popular activity. You see, all-night cram sessions, parties, TV, the net and a general overload of activity causes them to lose precious night sleep. This is where daytime naps come in, they fill in the gaps. For some college people, naps are as common as eating lunch or brushing teeth.

A popular napping day is Saturday and usually the nap occurs in the afternoon. Prime time is between 2 and 4 pm. Usually what happens is the college student leaps rampantly into their bed and then quickly snuggles under the covers. A slight smile can often be seen on their face as well, this is because napping is such a joyous experience to them that they can’t help but to give a little grin.

In addition, many college people look forward to napping. It helps to break up their day as well as making them feel refreshed and revived once they get up. Some college people screw napping in their dorm room and end up taking a nap anywhere they can find a place, such as on an outdoor picnic table or even in their friend’s laundry basket! Wherever it is, college people and napping are the perfect match—it’s their soul mate.

#42 Celebrity Gossip

If there’s one thing college people can’t get enough of, it’s definitely celebrity gossip. Many college people are so obsessed with it that they can’t function properly without getting their daily dose of it. A lot of them have their favorite gossip blog such as perezhilton or TMZ that they visit on a daily basis. A few of the overly obsessive OCD type college people typically visit the sites hundreds or even thousands of times a day.

In addition, college people also like telling the latest celebrity gossip with all their friends. But it’s not just a normal conversation like “Hey, did you hear that so and so is pregnant.” No, no instead it’s way more extreme like “OMG, have you heard that so and so is fricken preggers, and like what’s gonna happen next, and who’s the father… and like OMG I totally can’t believe this shit!” Then all their friends start talking about it and pretty soon it turns into a full fledged college cat fight with words traveling a bazillion miles an hour. It’s insane.

So the next time a big celebrity news event hits the press, be prepared for millions of college people literally going crazy over the news. And don’t be surprised if all their craziness actually turns into the news itself!! It seriously can get that bad. No wonder why college riots exist!

You know you’ve been in college too long when…

1. You’re still enrolled in classes, approaching 30, and still don’t have a degree of any sort.

2. You have a sense for a free item; like you have a “freedar” in your head.

3. Going to bed at 5 am is early.

4. You can type an 11 page paper in one night and get an “A”

5. Studying is a fucking bitch.

6. You’re waiting for your financial aid check and your social security check makes it to your mailbox first.

7. You go out to a dinner at a fancy restaurant and you try to order microwaved ramen.

8. You go through any checkout line (especially when paying for food) and take out your prospective college ID card instead of your credit card.

9. Getting out of bed before 12 noon is too early.

10. You would graduate at the top of your class if napping and facebooking were majors.

#41 Hooking up in the Dorm Bathrooms

College people love to smooch and make out hardcore in the dorm bathrooms. Such activity would typically be frowned upon by sensible older adults, but college people don’t think that way at all. Instead, it’s the best joyride of their entire lives, and some even manage to make it all the way to home base.

The deviousness of the activity is what makes bathrooms a popular hook-up spot for college people. What right-minded “experienced” old adult would think that bathrooms are the perfect romantic place for a date? Probably zip! And that’s exactly why “unexperienced” young college people choose bathrooms for their love sessions. You see, college people are natural redneck rebels, so it makes perfect sense for them.

In addition, what’s worse, is that college people like to tell all their little friends about the ordeal. They go up to their buddies and say, “Hey bitches, I made out in the bathroom with <insert name> and it was a great experience, it was so fergalicious.” And then their little friends blush in disgust, but then one bursts out saying “Wow, that sounds so fucking awesome!!” Then some high-fives are exchanged and then they go on with their daily lives.

Hooking up in the dorm bathrooms gives college people that extra little edge to make it through a long, boring day of classes. Whenever they get depressed or sad they simply think about it, or fantasize about the next one, and then everything all of a sudden becomes great again. It’s like magic. It’s also their secret life antidote. Shhhh…

#40 Laughing at Stupid People

College people like laughing at stupid people because it makes them feel better about themselves. Laughing at others’ mistakes is a great way to relieve stress for them. It makes them forget about their own life problems and allows them to recover from emotional hard times. It also makes them sleep better at night for unknown reasons. Have a GREAT day! 😀
