HAVING A GROUP MEMBER WHO JUST BRINGS SNACKS.
Follow us for more relatable insights into the Ivy League journey!
We all know the grind. Those endless library hours, the meticulously color-coded notes that became your entire world, and the silent understanding that sometimes, the only release was a quiet, desperate cry tucked away between the shelves. It was intense. It was transformative. And sometimes, you just needed a study group to pull through.
But let’s be real, study groups weren’t always academic powerhouses. Amidst the frantic brainstorming sessions, the late-night coffee runs, and the occasional existential crisis, there was always that one person. The brilliant mind you hoped would dissect the quantum physics problem, or unravel the obscure historical text, who instead showed up with an artisanal cheese board or a Costco-sized bag of chips. You’d eye them, a mix of mild irritation and pure hunger, wondering if their contribution was strictly caloric. And yet, didn’t that perfectly timed snack, that moment of shared, unadulterated gluttony, somehow break the tension? Didn't it remind you that behind the relentless pursuit of knowledge, there were actual humans just trying to survive? Maybe they didn't explain the derivatives, but they fed your soul and your stomach. These are the small, absurd memories that stitch together the larger fabric of our unique academic experience.
