A Typical Night in the Life of a College Girl, as Told by Jennifer Lawrence

Your classes are finally over for the day, and you’ve got the whole night ahead of you!

First you think about how much you want to stay in and watch a season or two of The Walking Dead on Netflix…

…but then your friends invite you to a party, and you’re convinced to go out instead.

Your friends ask if you want to pregame, and you respond,

When you get to the party, the place is packed.

But then you see someone you know across the room and you’re like,

Drunk guys start hitting on you, thinking you’ll be all like,

But instead you’re more like,

You’re on the dance floor with your girls and some guy comes up to dance with you and you turn around to see what he looks like, and your face just goes,

And you try to silently signal to your friends to save you.

But when you see your friends dancing with unattractive guys, you’re just like,

And when you see DFMOs, you’re like,

But when it’s you having the DFMO, you’re just like,

And when your friends dance with cute guys all night, you tipsily encourage them to go for the hook-up.

You finally see a really attractive guy from across the room and you get all giddy.

But you want to wait until you’ve both had a little more to drink before you go up to him, so you just eye him from afar like,

Because trying to flirt with guys when you’re still sober is like…

…and when you’re tipsy, it’s like…

…but you have to be careful, because once you get past tipsy it’s like,

So when the cute guy looks around for someone to be his beer pong partner you’re just like,

Every time you say something stupid after drinking, you and your friends start cracking up because you’re just like,

But when other drunk girls say dumb stuff, you just want to yell at them.

Your friends try to tell you that they’re “not that drunk,” and you’re like,

By the time the party starts winding down you’re all like,

And then you get to your fave late night place and order stuff you’d never eat sober.

Then you stumble home.

And it’s all over… at least, until you see your Instagram and Facebook photos in the morning!
