Here’s to never having another professor call you out for “participating” in class by loudly snoring (we’ve all been there).

59.) All those years of questionable cafeteria food, questionable decisions (remember that spring break trip to Mexico? Yikes!), and questionable fashion choices (who knew neon green overalls would ever go out of style?) have led you here. You did it, kiddo!

60.) Speaking of conquering the world, remember all those times you complained about having to write essays? Well, buckle up, buttercup, because the “real world” is full of emails, reports, and presentations that might make you miss those research papers. Just kidding (sort of)!
