11 Times We Were "Literally Dead" This Semester

We've all had at least one rough semester.

11 Times We Were "Literally Dead" This Semester

"My class isn't until 2pm tomorrow so I can still go out, right?"

1. After a night out before an 8AM class.

There's no question that 8AM classes are absolute garbage after a night out. Professors will surely point you out since you smell like frat house and cheap booze.

2. After tailgating for a 2PM Game.

We all look forward to taking off our game day clothes and having a decent nap after an early game.

3. Attempting to finish 3 essays when the deadline is in 2 minutes.

Procrastinating is all too familiar when you've put off assignments for so long.

4. Forgetting your assignment was due an hour after the deadline.

Asking a professor if he accepts late work is a "L" in itself.

5. Worrying about our GPA the week before finals.

I really wish someone would have told me to focus on my GPA my first quarter.

6. Deciding to take a nap instead of studying.

I've done two problems, that should count for a minute of rest.

7. When you stay up all night to study for a test only to make a C.

Looks like I'll be submitting my high school grades to my insurance for the fourth time.

8. Finishing your plate of food even though you were on the verge of puking.

I'm pretty sure I've actually died just to eat the last bite of food.

9. Opening the fridge and seeing there is no food.

Cue the tears.

10. Believing that skipping class and sleeping in would make you feel better.

The hangover worsens by 1000x.

11. Believing that "one time" would be the only time you'd skip class.

Is attendance really mandatory?

College is full of taking 'L's' and the amount of times we've texted our friends that we're dead in the morning is countless. Maybe it will get better next semester.

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!

The 5 Painfully True Stages Of Camping Out At The Library

For those long nights that turn into mornings when the struggle is real.

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.

December... it's full of finals, due dates, Mariah Carey, and the holidays. It's the worst time of the year, but the best because after finals, you get to not think about classes for a month and catch up on all the sleep you lost throughout the semester. 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.

Thanksgiving break is over and Christmas is just around the corner and that means, for most college students, one hellish thing — finals week. It's the one time of year in which the library becomes over populated and mental breakdowns are most frequent. There is no way to avoid it or a cure for the pain that it brings. All we can do is hunker down with our books, order some Dominos, and pray that it will all be over soon. Luckily, we are not alone in this suffering. To prove it, here are just a few of the many deranged thoughts that go through a college student's mind during finals week.

"I want to thank Google, Wikipedia, and whoever else invented copy and paste. Thank you."

I know every college student has daily thoughts throughout their day. Whether you're walking on campus or attending class, we always have thoughts running a mile a minute through our heads. We may be wondering why we even showed up to class because we'd rather be sleeping, or when the professor announces that we have a test and you have an immediate panic attack.
