Some people are excited about it, and others are not. Regardless of how you feel, if you're a student, you have to go to class eventually. Here is a list of some things that are definitely going to happen on your first day back.

1. Everyone and their grandmother is going to slay. Everyone! You’ll be prepared for battle as well. Most of your morning will be spent beating your face and picking an Insta worthy outfit.

2. You’re actually going to eat a decent breakfast because guess what? You’re not recovering from a tear filled, coffee induced all nighter.

3. The Panther Express Bus is going to be late, like really late. (Go ahead and start walking)

- via GIPHY

4. You’re going to bump into all your old friends and have a massive hug fest with unnecessary amounts of screaming. It’s horrible to watch, but fun to partake in.

5. Walking into every class and intensely scanning the room to find potential friends, study buddies, and classroom baes.

- via GIPHY

6. Awkward introduction games. Almost every professor will force the class to form a circle, say their name, major, and a random fact about themselves. Even though you expect it, you will struggle to find a random fact about yourself.

- via GIPHY

7. All your classmates will be on their phones whilst the professor is reading their syllabus. You’ll tell yourself that you’re going to look over it at home, you won’t.

8. Getting back to your room and collapsing on your bed. Walking to class, hugging friends, highlighting due dates = EXHAUSTION!

- via GIPHY

9. Crying in front of your laptop as you enter in your debit credit card information for access codes.

- via GIPHY

10. You're going to go to bed late even though you have no homework, thus, messing up your sleep schedule for the rest of the week.

Happy studying!

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.

But what's worse than finals week is the last week of classes, when all the due dates you've put off can no longer be put off anymore.
