Everyone knows that high school and college are pretty different. From academics to the social scene, they are essentially worlds apart. 4E brings you a few situations that demonstrate this difference perfectly.
Situation 1: Getting an A
High School: *Shoves test in binder*
Georgetown:
Situation 2: The “humble brag”
High School: “You’re on chapter 7?! I haven’t even opened the book.”
Georgetown: “You’re on chapter 7?! You better hurry up. I memorized all the charts and statistics.”
Situation 3: Being Healthy
High School: “I try to eat a balance of fruits, vegetables, proteins, and carbs.”
Georgetown: “I try to eat healthy. Also, I went to Yates last week.”
Situation 4: Needing to do laundry
High School: “Maahhhm!”
Georgetown: “Maybe if I spray it with perfume no one will know…”
Situation 5: Relationships
High School: “After our date he asked if we should make it Facebook official.”
Georgetown: *Swipes you in at Leo’s* “It was essentially a date.”
Situation 6: Trying really hard to cook
High School: *Prepares five course meal.*
Georgetown: *Fails at preparing five course meal.*
*And then resorts to EasyMac*
Situation 7: Being a nerd
High School: “You did the reading? Classic. Such a nerd.”
Georgetown: “That kid always ruins the curve. I heard he co-authored the textbook. What a nerd.”
Situation 8: Netflix and chilling
High School: *text at 6:30 p.m.* “Hey. I have to watch my sister tonight while my parents are gone but want to come over to watch some Netflix and chill?”
Georgetown: *text at 3:30 a.m.* “Netflix and chill;)?”
Situation 9: Waking up early
High School: “I got up at 5 a.m. for swim practice. I’m literally going to die.”
Georgetown: “I have an 8 a.m. class this semester. I’m literally going to die.”
Situation 10: Realistic career expectations
High School: “I’m incredibly passionate about biology, space, and astrophysics. I’m either going to be a physicist or an astronaut. I got a 5 in AP Physics so I’m probably smart enough.”
Georgetown: “I mean, tax law could be interesting.”
Situation 11: Personal Space
High School:

Situation 12: Approaching a crush
High school:
Georgetown: “My crush has got to be on tinder somewhere. It’s only a matter of time.”
Situation 13: Dance parties

College is hard. But, you’ve got to admit, most times it’s better than high school.
