Netflix favorite and likely future cult classic, “Stranger Things,” has been captivating (and scaring the life out of) audiences of all ages since its debut over the summer. Although the show primarily focuses on a group of middle and high school aged kids, it’s not a far reach to relate the supernatural happenings to life in college. I couldn’t help noticing “Stranger Things” has described our life in college on several different occasions:Â
1. When you actually have enough money to buy real groceries and feel like you’re on top of the world because you’ll be eatin’ good.
Let’s face it, there’s nothing better than stocking up your fridge with copious amounts of food. (Especially Eggos!)
2. When you have a test in your 8:00 a.m. class.
It should be illegal to be required to function before 10:00 a.m.
3. That one kid in your class who takes up everyone’s time by asking irrelevant questions.
It’s especially annoying at the end of class when all you want to do is leave.
4. When you’re stuck inside studying but all of your friends have free time.
“I wanna be where the people are…” plays loudly.
5. When you try to skip class but your friends convince you otherwise.
Did you really need to spend an hour and 15Â minutes watching a movie?
6. Trying to explain to your professor why you missed class.
And you know they’re not buying it.
7. When bae tries to make everything better.
Although you really wish it was Steve consoling you. *Swoon*
Try not to let college get you down, and remember that “Stranger Things” will always be there for you if you need to take your mind off things!
