A term used by obnoxious college students (usually freshmen) to refer to the apparently unique lifestyle they are currently living. Very commonly used on Facebook, especially as a photo album title, usually containing numerous pictures of drunken bitches with case upon case of Keystone Light in the background.

Asshole #01- "Oh bra, I have like, a one page essay due tomorrow and I'm freaking out!"
Asshole #02- "That sucks! Welcome to the college life, man."
Example #02:
Slut #01- "So, like, last night, me and Slut #02 went to this party, and like, we got sooooo drunk, and then like, someone slipped us roofies, and I guess like, we got gang raped or something! I'm not sure, but my butthole hurts! Hehe!"
Slut #03- "Ahh. The college life."
A type of phase college students go through fearing that once they graduate, they’re gonna think to themselves, “why was I so boring during college?”.
Alice: What’s with JJ? He almost got caught spray painting on the dorms!
Bob: Sorry. JJ’s going through a College-Life Crisis right now. he’s trying to keep himself from being remembered as lame.
A phenomenon in film/television series, most notably streaming series, where the main premise is drawn out to such a point that it takes an entire season or more to get the parts of the series the audience is actually interested in seeing.
For example, if a series is titled "Surf Dracula," a majority of viewers would tune in expecting to see Dracula surfing by the first or second episode. However, the entire first season would instead be tedious padding and backstory before finally ending with Dracula surfing in the last five minutes of the season finale.
I watched "Smallville" on Netflix the other day. Dude, it was ten seasons of filler before he finally flew! Major Surf Dracula Syndrome!
