Your Hell Week, As Told by Step Brothers

Your Hell Week, As Told by Step Brothers

No time for karate in the garage, it's your hell week. Time to buckle down.


The Sunday shock when you realize you are officially screwed.

It's Sunday night. You are exhausted from the weekend and from an extensive chapter meeting. You decide to open your planner to double-check your assignments for the week that should NBD. Three exams, one paper and a project due by Friday!?

You've accepted the fact you're gonna look like crap this week.

You are in for a week of baggy puffy eyes and the endless time in the library will make you be looking some type of way. You don't have time this week to put forth effort into your appearance.

Your phone starts to blow up with your group members asking if you can all meet every night this week for three hours. But, wait, Becky cannot meet until Tuesday unless it's after 5 p.m., but Daniel cannot meet unless it's before 9 a.m. every day and, well, you get the picture of the dreaded group meeting.

You have just finished your first all-nighter of the week and first exam.

Now, your group can only meet right now. All you want to do is sleep, but Becky won't let you live it down if you try to bail on this next meeting. Dammit, Becky.

As if organizing and dealing with all your group members wasn't torture enough, your group meeting was completely unproductive. You ended up distracting each other by looking up music videos and turning your history presentation into an awful, inappropriate song. You have to meet for three more hours to actually finish your work.

Midway through the week you snap on your mom/roommate/best friend.

They didn't deserve it at the time, but you are delusional from lack of sleep and your eating and sleeping patterns are anything but healthy to deal with the stress. No, you don't have time to go out to a nice healthy dinner for Susan's 22nd b-day, You don't even have time to sleep, dammit.

It's Wednesday night. You have two exams down and are halfway through your paper. You do everything else like clean, organize and disinfect your entire room before finishing your damn paper.

It's now Thursday and you can almost taste the weekend, but you are not done yet. Now, all that stands in between you and freedom is your project due tomorrow, but you need help. You reach out to a classmate for notes on how to the project and they actually respond! There are good people in the world that can lessen your week of hell! Thank you, Mark (the kid in the glasses who sits in the front row)!

You made it!

You somehow survived your hell week and are ready to take on the weekend. Bring on the day drinks people, because tomorrow...

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.
