It's hot. It's humid. You're exhausted (and probably hungover). You're frantically trying to get to class in time because walking in once the professor starts talking is awkward AF. And God forbid you miss an attendance point if there is one; every point helps!! While walking to class, there are a million different things going on around you and you have a million different thoughts running through your head.
1. Please oh please oh please find a decent parking spot.
Before even getting to campus, you're already stressed that you won't find a parking spot and that'll make you late for class. I usually just opt for the back lot because parking in front of Tiger Stadium is like going shopping on Black Friday.
2. Okay, don't get hit by a car.
Big strides, big strides, big strides... That car is going to stop, right? Wait, it's not slowing down! Bigger strides, bigger strides, bigger strides...
3. Look composed. These people can't notice how hard you're breathing.
Is this one of those situations where it's acceptable to blame my asthma?
4. Crap, I know that girl.
Quick, pretend like your phone is ringing so they don't have the chance to get close enough to see the beads of sweat dripping down your face!
5. Should I actually go to class or should I skip to get food?
Get those bad thoughts out of your head. But C's get degrees so I'll let myself skip tomorrow since I'm going out tonight. I'll reward myself after class today with Chick-fil-A.
6. *Hears preaching* Must dodge anyone who tries to make you sign a petition or join a club!
No, I do not want to be a part of the chess club.
7. Three more minutes until class.
You can do this, you can do this!
8. Are they handing out free popsicles over there?!
Re-evaluating if I should go to this class or not...
9. Why are you walking so slow!!
Come on, people. Left foot, right food, left people.
10. Wow that's a fat squirrel.
Probably because he hangs out in front of Subway.
11. Oh man, now I smell Subway...
I really should've eaten before class.
12. Would it be weird if I asked that girl where she got her backpack?
Potentially. Not worth the risk. Also extra human interaction is not ideal right now.
13. *exactly 9:30* I did it!!
That half a mile walk better be worth it...
