10 Reasons Why Having a December Birthday is the Worst

Without a doubt, having a December birthday is pretty horrible. If you have a birthday in the midst of the holiday season, I’m sure you understand the struggle. My entire life, I have been extremely envious of anyone with a nice May birthday or maybe June would have been more convenient. But no, December it is for me. December 26th to be exact, the day after Christmas, as if having a December birthday wasn't bad enough. So here’s to everyone else who has been forced upon having a December birthday.

1. When someone tries to tell you that your birthday isn't that bad

Until you experience having a December birthday, there is no room for your opinion.

2. When your friends and family try to wrap your gifts with CHRISTMAS wrapping paper

THIS IS MY BIRTHDAY. NOT CHRISTMAS. WRAP MY GIFTS ACCORDINGLY.

3. When your entire life is overshadowed by Christmas

Yes, this is one thing that even Jon Snow knows.

4. When everyone is away or has family obligations, so celebrating your birthday with friends is nearly impossible

Can we just start celebrating my half-birthday instead?

5. Even just thinking about my birthday being in the midst of the holiday season...

LOATHE ENTIRELY.

6. Your birthday is frequently forgotten about...

Christmas is more important than my birth. NO BIG DEAL.

7. People with summer birthdays just don't understand

What is so hard to understand?

8. Combined birthday/Christmas gifts

No explanation needed.

9. Let's not forget how EVERYONE has an opinion about your December birthday

"December is the best month for a birthday!" "Wow, December must be the worst month for your birthday!" THANKS FOR YOUR UNWANTED OPINION.

10. But you know what the REAL fuss is about in December

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO ALL OF THE DECEMBER BABIES!!!

Everyone tells you that college is hard, but they fail to explain why. Sure, classes are hard. Math sucks, and political science can be so boring. But that's not even what's killing me about college. What's killing me about college is my deterioating mental health.

As a college student, I feel as if people don't understand just how exhausted I, and fellow college students are. We have so many things going on, all the time, and sometimes it's hard to explain to people how we feel. Personally...I'm tired. I'm sad. And I'm struggling every single day with my emotions. But the thing is, it hasn't always been this way. I haven't always hated school, so why am I feeling like this now?

You spend all day long in class and now realize you also have to spend the next few nights awake studying.

You take out your textbook and notes, but don't have the energy to actually read them.

You can’t focus, and your roommate suggests you go to the library.

You realize there are still over 50 pages left to read.

You take a Netflix and snack break.

Your friends told you they were staying in with you to study, but they end up going out.

Your friends send you pictures of them out having fun, but you're stuck in the library and want to run away.
