12 Reasons College Students Are DYING To Go Back To School
Kylene Ronayne

Three months ago, you were dying to get the hell out of there. Now, you are jumping up and down at the idea of going back. Don’t get me wrong, you’ve had a great summer. Whether you spent your time relaxing at home with your family, laying on a beach somewhere exotic, or just taking it day by day doing your thing—summer was awesome. Until the extreme boredom kicked into full gear. Whether you’re going to be a college sophomore or senior, you will agree that these are the motives for your anxiousness to get back to school.

1. Your family is driving you crazy.

You love them to death, but they can certainly be overwhelming at times—especially after getting that first delicious taste of independence in college.

2. Your summer job is a drag.


Don’t get me wrong, having a little money is nice. But how are you going to work all year round after school ends? You can barely get through three months of it in the summer!

3. You just got back from vacation.


Once vacation ends, there’s really not many other things to look forward to during summer. You’ve reached the ultimate summer enjoyment.

4. You finally have your peak tan.


You’ve got the best tan and you want to be able to show it off back at school. Also, the summer heat you looked forward to all winter has transitioned into fiery flames from hell.

5. You’re soooooo bored.


You’ve already done all the exciting and adventurous summer activities you wanted to, so now what?

6. There’s only so much Netflix you can handle.


“Are you still watching” comes up on your laptop screen wayyy too often.

7. You need to let loose and party hard.


‘Nuff said.

8. You’re ready to spend all the money you made over the summer.


Make it rain, my friend, make it rain.

9. You’re getting way too lazy.


The moment you try to find something long enough to reach the light switch for you so you don’t have to get up from bed is the moment you realize you need to hit the gym or just actually do something else with your life.

10. You crave a normal, familiar routine.


There’s something about have a set schedule that makes you feel more wholesome and productive. Getting by day to day without having any plans on what to do is certainly getting a bit old.

11. You want your independence back.


After finally having your own independence for the first time in college, it is immediately snatched back up during your first summer at home. It’s like giving a baby only ONE LICK of candy and then hiding it for three months.

12. You miss all your friends.


Reuniting with them will honestly solve all of your problems.

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.
