What It’s Like To Be In College, As Told By Disney Princesses

During welcome week, you’re all like,

And your sorority sisters say,

At the beginning of each semester, you say,

But then the real work comes and you realize it’s not all fun and games and you just want to,

You zone out in class.

And then during the pop quiz you feel like this,

You haven’t showered in 3 days.

Life was so much easier in high school.

But everything’s okay because you meet a new guy and,

<

He texts you so you feel like this,

All the other girls want him too, so you’re all like, “pick me”,

And then some fugly girl cuts in front of you at the bar,

It’s okay though because you’re the prettiest.

You think he’s really cute and you’ve pre-gamed a little too hard, so you make out with him as soon as you see him.

Of course you warn your friends against being so forward.


You’re feeling fabulous but then you realize you lost your phone at the bar.

Then a guy offers to walk you home and everything is okay again.

But he drunkenly confesses his love to you.

And the morning after, you’re all like,

You tell your friends,

Your friend says she’s going to the library on Thirsty Thursday and you’re all like,

But then your roommate comes home drunk and tells you,

Whenever you see high school students tour campus, you feel like this,

But then you pull an all-nighter and you wish you were a teenager again.

You get your first job offer and are ready to tackle the real world.

But then you’re not so happy because your older friends say,

You know they just wish they could be an undergrad again because in college,

And just remember,
