Mondays at EC Explained by Cute Animals

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

College life is great for six days of the week; No, really, it’s fantastic! However, Mondays continue to be loathed, passionately and unceasingly. Even the animal kingdom is not exempt from the exhaustion that a Monday brings. Here are 10 undomesticated cuties that can completely empathize with you on this monotonous Monday.

1. Trying to wake yourself up with a shower for the first 8am of the week and then ultimately donning your comfiest sweats.

2. Yawning throughout class and not being able to keep up with the professor’s slideshow.

3. Searching for your squad in the dining hall at peak lunch time—even all of the long tables are filled up!

4. Struggling to keep that blood sugar up for your lab later? Maybe grab some fruit on the way out!

5. Sprinting through the rain from the JYC to Admin, even though the buildings aren’t that far apart…

6. Climbing the stairs to the dreaded fourth floor and developing calves of steel (because the elevator is MIA).

7. Calling your mom because you need a little extra love after the long day you’ve had. It never goes to voicemail.  

8. Approaching the dessert table for the second time at dinner…Nobody will judge you for needing that extra brownie!

9. Smiling lots because the worst of the day is over.

10. Descending happily into bed, ready to take on Tuesday!
