12 Thoughts After A Long Weekend

It's always a blessing when you get a spontaneous day off of work or school and you get to ignore all of your responsibilities on what is normally just another boring day, and it's even better when it comes with a holiday where you get to spend time with friends and family, barbecue, or traveling. However, all long weekends come to an end, and eventually you have to return to the world of cubicles, textbooks, and saying goodbye to your friends until next time. And we all know exactly how you're feeling right now:

1. This weekend did not feel long enough.

2. I really need a{nother} vacation.

3. I do not want to be here right now.

4. Did I leave my sunglasses somewhere?

5. How long until my next day off?

6. My wallet did not enjoy this weekend as much as I did.

7. My sunburn didn't either.

8. Why did I waste so much of the weekend sleeping?

9. My inbox has over a hundred emails, did no one else get the memo that this was a long weekend?

10. How am I ever going to answer a hundred emails today?

11. I wonder if I can go home early today.

12. I'm going to go home and pretend it's not over yet.

No matter how you spent your long weekend, none of us are happy it's over. I guess it's time we try and get re-accustomed to normal life, with Netflix and wine instead of fireworks and block parties. At least the next one is only about 10 weeks away, right?

The Battle Between College And My Mental Health

College isn't easy, and I'm afraid I'm not going to make it at the rate my mental health is going.

Everyone tells you that college is hard, but they fail to explain why. Sure, classes are hard. Math sucks, and political science can be so boring. But that's not even what's killing me about college. What's killing me about college is my deterioating mental health.

As a college student, I feel as if people don't understand just how exhausted I, and fellow college students are. We have so many things going on, all the time, and sometimes it's hard to explain to people how we feel. Personally...I'm tired. I'm sad. And I'm struggling every single day with my emotions. But the thing is, it hasn't always been this way. I haven't always hated school, so why am I feeling like this now?
