Everyone has THE messy friend, and if you don't, it's probably you. Most people are proud of their clean rooms, while the messy friends have just given up. I am the messy friend, my room is atrocious and my friends are judgmental. If you are like me, then you can probably relate to the majority of these signs. If you think you are not like me, but still relate... SURPRISE! You are the messy friend.

1. Your friends have to shove things off the couch to sit down.

They shove everything off without regard for your belongings. Then they flop down like they own the place.

2. Getting into your bed is like walking through a labyrinth.

Sometimes you just have to clear a path in order to make it.

3. People underestimate when you say your room is a mess.

The infamous "It can't be that bad" or the "My room is a mess too."

4. You go through phases of being neat.

Every once in a while inspiration hits and you clean your room. You may even make a list.

5. It never lasts.

After all, it's easier to mess it up than clean it up. Also, laziness is real.

6. You can never find your keys... or anything for that matter.


Yet, your friends can find them for you.

7. You never sleep alone.

How can you be alone with all of that laundry?

8. Other people help you clean your room.

Often against your will or theirs.

9. You constantly buy things that you think you lost.

Sometimes, it is easier to replace things.

10. You end up finding duplicates of things.

Maybe you shouldn't have replaced the items you "lost".

11. You consider paying people to clean-up for you.

You're busy, why not have someone else do it for you? Plus, you are helping out a friend.

12. Whenever the word "messy" or the phrase "not organized" comes up, you get those eyes.


They think their glances are sly. You notice the looks.

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.
