Having glasses is a love/hate relationship for a lot of people. Those with glasses are usually annoyed by them and those without sometimes wish they had glasses to look smart in. If you have glasses then you know the struggles of these following things.

1) Cleaning your glasses 24/7

I hope you have a microfiber cloth handy.

2) Adjusting your glasses NONSTOP

Why can't they just stay?!

3) The everlasting indent on the sides of your nose

They just won't go away.

4) When your lenses fog due to a significant change in temperature


Where is the defrost button?

5) Trying to lay down with them on

It's impossible to lay down comfortably with them.

6) The stereotype of being nerdy or geeky

Hey, at least people think you're smart!

7) Fishing for your glasses in the middle of the night and morning


Glasses, where art thou?

8) "Can I try on your glasses?"

When your friend puts them on, he/she always say, "Wow, you are blind!" Then, you probably reply, "Haha, yeah," while thinking, "Thanks, Captain Obvious."

9) "Why not try contacts?"

Been there, done that. I think I'll just stick with my spectacles.

10) When it's raining and you cannot see

Thanks, Mother Nature.

11) Not being able to see clearly from the sides, under, and above the lenses

The struggle is very real.

12) When there is a glare that makes it hard for you to see

No-Glare Lenses = Clarity

13) The hassle of wearing lab goggles, 3D glasses, or sunglasses over your regular glasses.

It's like Inception but with glasses.

14) Getting hit in the face with a ball

Good thing you got insurance on them, right?!

15) The hardship of finding a new pair of glasses

Do these glasses make my face look fat? Do they sit well on the bridge of my nose? What color should I get? Which shape?

Sure, glasses may be a pain in the butt, but at the end of the day, you love them (and need them)! Don't let them stop you from doing the things you love. Own them, flaunt them!

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.

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.

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 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.
