A typical day in the life of every Carolina girl ever

It’s probably you

With the most beautiful school color ever, lots of hills to make your legs look great, and a nice ration to ensure you always have a girl gang, it looks easy to be a ‘Carolina’ girl. But really, it’s tougher than you think. I mean, come on – the other day I tripped on a brick and dropped my Starbucks. Sure, not every girl and every experience at Carolina is the same, but like, they basically are. I bet most of you have days just like this:

7am

Alarm goes off with the sweet melodious sounds of James Taylor’s “Carolina in my Mind.”

7:30am

Alarm goes off again, this time with the classic “Wagon Wheel.”

8am

Alarm goes off one final time with the siren sound, because come on, who wakes up from anything but loud and obnoxious sirens?

8:15am

“Okay, finally out of bed. Time to get dressed. What to wear, what to wear. Oh, its 40 degrees out? Norts it is. Should I wear an oversized sweatshirt or actual make an effort to dress nice? Definitely the oversized sweatshirt, always the oversized sweatshirt. Definitely the Carolina sweatshirt, always the Carolina one. Should I wear my Bean Boots or no? Well it’s not raining… Bean Boots it is. Full face of makeup goes with norts, right? Ok, tomorrow I will wear makeup AND real clothes. Just kidding, I definitely won’t.”

8:30am

You decide its time to eat a healthy breakfast! Actually, who are you kidding? At Carolina, coffee is food. You probably drink a latte and pretend its a breakfast of bacon and eggs.

9am

You probably spend your entire class staring at the cute guy. Then you realize he’s probably taken or gay, like every other guy at UNC. Curse the ratio!

11am

You decide it’s time to eat actual food. You probably go to the Bottom of Lenoir and pretend it’s healthy while drinking another latte.

12pm

You head to the UL to get some serious studying done. Then you end up taking a nap on one of the green chairs and convince yourself its as relaxing as skipping class and going home to sleep.

I’ve read it six times and still don’t get it.

12:45pm

You head to class and check yourself out in the reflection of every single window you pass.

1pm-5pm

You probably spend these hours enjoying class and definitely not daydreaming about this Saturday. You’re probably taking notes on either a brand new Macbook Pro or a $30 trendy notebook from Target.

5pm

You eat some more. This time, you convince yourself that pizza at Lenoir or the microwave meal you cook in your apartment is totally healthy. You are a picture of health.

7pm

Alright, now you decide its time to get a great workout in. You have to continue your healthy trend at the SRC! You walk up and are totally prepared to workout downstairs, then you get scared of the boys and run upstairs to the cardio equipment.

 

9pm

You crack open a bottle of wine. Its probably Moscato.
