18 Times Cameron Frye Was All of Us

This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at Cal Poly chapter.

1. When your alarm goes off on the first day and it’s too early to move.

Because 8 AMs are the devil’s work.

2. When you have to force yourself to go to class when you’re sick.

Flu? Stress?

3. When you’re first on the waitlist, but the professor’s not letting anyone else enroll.

The room has a capacity limit? I won’t tell.

4. When you’re assigned a group project.

5. When you’ve spent the entirety of a 90-minute lecture deciding what you’re going to eat for dinner.

Should I cook something healthy tonight? Nah.

6. When someone fails to take you seriously because of your age.

I’M AN ADULT AND I DESERVE TO BE TREATED LIKE ONE.

7. When someone asks about your post-graduation plans.

8. Or when someone asks you how your term’s going.

Somehow I’m still alive, so GO ME!

9. When you keep having classes with someone you once awkwardly hooked up with.

Remember that time we had a thing going on? Let’s pretend to forget, okay?

10. When a potential employer contacts you and you don’t know what to talk to them about.

Can you rephrase the question while I fake my way through this interview?

11. When your parents visit and take you out to dinner…

…which means possible LEFTOVERS!

12. When that hottie FINALLY sits next to you in class.

I’ve been waiting all term for you, boo.

13. When final’s week arrives too soon.

14. When you know you need to be studying, but lying in bed and contemplating life seems like a much better option.

Where does baby corn come from? Do they have husks and grow like regular corn? Are baby corns even corn at all? WHAT IS LIFE???

15. When you realize an exam is cumulative at the last minute.

Goodbye, semi-decent GPA.

16. When you finish your last final!

17. But then it’s summer, and having nothing to do makes you miss what once was.

18. And then you realize that college is one big parade!

If you don’t stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
