A Day in the Life of a SWUG

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

As second semester of senior year reaches it’s peak, it might be time to reevaluate our lives. Here’s a snapshot of a day in the life of a SWUG: 

(10:30am) Ugh. I don’t want to get up yet. I’ll hit snooze, it’s fine. 

(10:45am) Allriiiighttttt I’m up. Now let me check my inbox, Instagram, Facebook, Snapchat, Twitter, and play Candy Crush.

(11:07am) Now that I’m all caught up on my social media, it’s time to seize the day. 

(11:15am) I should probably eat some sort of meal. Let’s see what the fridge has in store today. Annndddddd there’s nothing there. Let me close the fridge and open it once more to make sure that when I open it again, all my favorite foods haven’t appeared. Stale cereal it is then. 

(11:38am) Perhaps I’ll get dressed in my uniform of sorority shirt and leggings. I definitely have class today but even though it’s the 6th week of school, I don’t remember what time it’s at. 

(12:12pm) Now might be a good time to start my day. If I have class at 12:30 and it takes me 10 minutes to get there and I want to get coffee before I should probably leave….about 5 minutes ago. 

(12:32pm) PHEW. Made it and I’m bascially on time. 

(1:45pm) I made it! Good thing I spent the whole time designing my new apartment in the city of the job I don’t currently have on Pinterist. So productive of me! 

(1:57pm) Alright so I have nothing to do until How To Get Away and Scandal comes on. I know I should go to the gym. Like I should REALLLLLYYY go. Ugh but it’s just so far.

(2:04pm) While I’m debating on whether or not I should go to the gym, let me just have 1 snack but in reality consume my whole pantry.

(2:11pm) OKAY. Definitely going to the gym but I’m driving.

(3:30pm) Wow, I’m so proud of myself. Now time to shower!

(3:54pm) I just got disracted again by checking all my social media accounts. Actually going to shower now.

(4:35pm) I love showers where you concoct your life plans while deep conditioning your hair

(4:40pm) Moving into stage two of my uniform: homless chic 

(5:02pm) I should probably eat dinner which, I have nothing for. A trip to the grocery store it is! 

(5:48pm) I’m not even sure what I bought but hopefully it’s enough to get my through the weekend (or at least tonight)

(6:30pm) So happy to have such a balanced meal — salmon, veggies, and a bottle of wine

(7:45pm) WHY AM I HUNGRY?!? WHAT’S WRONG WITH ME?! 

(8:00pm) SHONDALAND TIME OHHHHHHHHH YEAHHHHHHHHHH

(10:05pm) What a successful day! Time for bed 

(10:09pm) …..Why did Sam just text me asking if I did the homework for tomorrow…what homework for tomorrow…..

(11:01pm) Well that was annoying. Didn’t even know that class had weekly assignments.

(11:15pm) This was definitely one of my more stressfull days. GOODNIGHT WORLD.

(12:37am) Still awake…..

(1:13am) Let me do one more social media sweep. Okay, now it’s officially bed time.
