As a college student, I, like most of my peers, love wine. Saying that college students enjoy consuming alcoholic beverages is like pointing out that the sky is blue, but there’s something about a wine night that can kick any night up a few notches on the classy scale. After all, it feels more sophisticated to sip chardonnay than throwing back FourLoko.
Of course, drinking and enjoying wine in college isn’t always as sophisticated as we might like to think it because, at the end of the day, it’s still college.

Don’t test me.
8. Even in the best of times, you might not have the proper equipment

It will inevitably happen that you end up with several bottles and no opener.
9. But most of all, wine bottles are just too small

The struggle… yep, it’s real.
