Senioritis has nothing on the last half of the spring semester in college.

10 Thoughts You Have At The End Of The Semester
Hey Sigmund

With a month left in the semester, it's getting harder and harder to drag yourself out of bed in the morning when your alarm goes off and make it to class. You start rationalizing the really weird things you do, like ordering food for the sixth time in the row because you're too lazy to either cook or go pick it up yourself. It's a stark difference between how you were feeling at the end of August, with your life all planned out and a lot more money in your bank account. You start reminiscing about this time when you were in high school, and the only things you had to worry about were prom, track, state music contest, and graduation. Below are some gifs all college students can relate to at this point in the school year.

1. *cries dramatically in the shower*

Why are you crying? You don't really know, but it's happening. Just go with it.

2. *re-evaluates major for 67th time that day*

Do I really have to be a doctor/teacher/nurse/police officer/etc? I'll just be a boogan... It's fine.

3. Stress. Eating. 24/7.

You can't buy happiness, but you can buy ice cream -- and that's pretty close, right?

4. *runs away from life problems*

NOPE. NOPE. NOPE. NOPE.

5. "Why am I like this?"

There's nothing quite like staring into your own dead eyes in the mirror at 3 a.m. in the library bathroom.

6. "Yeah, I have three exams, a paper, and a lab report due this week... I'm still going out, though."

Don't act like this hasn't been you within the last 2 weeks. We know. We all know.

7. *has to study* *naps*

8. When you drink ten cups of coffee to stay up all night before an exam...

*screams*

9. Watching Netflix when you realize something is due at 11:59 and it's 11:35

A single tear rolls down your cheek when Blackboard kicks you off of the assignment at 11:56 and doesn't come back online until 12:01.

10. When you just give up and watch Grey's Anatomy from the beginning for the third time.

Oh well!

18 Things I Want To Do Now That I'm 18

I'm technically an adult, so I'm legally required to live a little, right?

1949
Happy Birthday Cake

For the entirety of my high school career, I was always seen as the goody-two-shoes. I never got in trouble with a teacher, I kept stellar grades, and when I wasn't doing extracurricular activities, I was at home studying. Even when I did go out, it was usually with a bunch of fellow band geeks. The night would end before 11:00 PM and the only controversial activity would be a fight based on who unfairly won a round of Apples-to-Apples when someone else clearly had a better card (I promise I'm not still holding a grudge).

Now that I'm officially an adult, I want to pursue some new things. I want to experience life in a way that I never allowed myself to do prior to entering college. These are the years that I'm supposed to embark on a journey of self-discovery, so what better way to do that than to create a bucket list?

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.
