I think I figured it out. College, the whole thing. College is easy, go to class, do homework, keep room clean. Its EVERYTHING ELSE that is hard.
I’ve had to deal with so much I never expected this year its amazing. The paperwork never seems to end. Something always is broken, needs to be replaced, restocked, who knows what, which all cost money. There just seems to be new challenges every day that I never thought of before.
My mother informs me that it all gets easier… but I’m not so sure how much I can trust her. This is still the same woman who told me about Santa and the Easter Bunny.

I completely agree! It’s all the futile, yet complicated things that one does not expect that make college life complicated. But, as my mom says: Don’t sweat the small stuff!
