A Day in the Life of a College Girl As Told By Sex and the City

This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at U Mass Amherst chapter.

Some moments that us college girls may encounter in a typical day are just better expressed by the fabulous ladies of Sex and the City. Whether your day consists of food, boys, or napping, Carrie and the gang have got you covered.

When you want to cry from guilt after allowing yourself to “cheat” on your diet (and by cheat I mean devouring an entire pizza):

When you’re at a party and your friends tell you to go up to the cute guy in your Chem class that you’ve been eyeing:

When you see this same guy at the DC with another girl:

When you had a stressful day and want to cheer yourself up:

When you’re working on the weekends and wish to resort to your college ways of napping the day away:

When you’re feeling lazy and your girlfriends are telling you to go out with them and be social:

When you made it to Friday and are feeling overly excited:

When your crush texts you one word responses, like “ya” or “k”:

When you become fed up with all of the single guys on campus:

When you decide to watch a chick flick with your girlfriends (and have become a cynical single girl):

When your frenemy starts acting like your best friend out of nowhere:

When you wake up late for class and run out the door without even glancing in a mirror, only to run into your ex (on a campus with over 20,000 students):

When you’re going out on Friday night feeling hot hot hot:

When you decide to let loose and take one too many tequilla shots on Saturday, only to loathe in self pity all day Sunday:

When you’re blabbering on about your life to your crush, only to realize he has lost interest:

When you feel judged by your fellow UMass classmates because you decided to wear no makeup to the DC…I mean hey, it’s finals week right?

When your calculus teacher assigns 5,000 homework problems to solve:

When your boyfriend complains about you being a total crank after the girl at Dunks messed up your coffee:

NYC is the concrete jungle and UMass is the zoo, so remember that there’s a Carrie, Samantha, Charlotte and Miranda in all of us. Stay fabulous, ladies.
