15 Reasons Why I'm Not Emotionally Ready To Begin A New Semester

Fall 2015 has come to a close and spring 2016 is already here. How did this happen? Why am I back in school already? I am literally not ready, at all, to commit my time again to being a full time student. That's just bizarre. I'm still recovering from everything that happened last semester and now I'm expected to complete another year of college?

Nope. But, now as students we have to go back to our regular routine, sadly. Here are 15 reasons as to why I'm not ready to be back at school, at all.

1. I have to set alarms to actually wake up early.

The face says it all.

2. I have to go to class and actually do homework/projects.

The urge to quit school even though I just started back up again is real.

3. No more home cooked meals.

School food is terrible. It should be illegal to serve food that is equivalent to poop.

4. I have to see people I don't like.

Person: OMG, how are you? Missed you so much!

Me:

5. I have to truck around campus in the cold weather.

If you need me, I'l be walking around campus looking just like this.

6. My sleep schedule is going to be all messed up, again.

This mean endless amounts of coffee and falling asleep anywhere and anytime when you get the chance.

7. Stress. Levels of very high stress.

Are you even in school if you're not feeling stressed out 24/7?

8. Having to leave my pets.

The worst long distance relationship I will ever be in. Leaving my puppy at home.

9. Professors who are not understanding of anything and some may say could be related to satan.

School is already stressful, having a professor who doesn't help you with school, doesn't help.

10. I have to leave my home.

You never really appreciate home, until you leave. It has a special place in my heart.

11. Did I mention leaving your high school best friends?

It's never easy saying bye to the people that you're close with, especially when you have a close knit group of friends, that is your family.

12. Anxiety kicks in on the first day already.

You had at least a month to be anxiety free, guess what? Not anymore.

13. Having to actually do things and not be a couch potato.

I. Don't. Want. To. Do. Anything. Ever.

14. Parking. It's never easy.

May the odds be in your favor this semester.

15. I'm not ready to give up my Netflix binging.

Netflix is bae and no one can come between me and bae.

Good luck to every college student out there who has begun the spring 2016 semester and for those of you still on christmas break, god bless your pretty little souls.

Kick butt this year.

Today I started my third week of college at Minnesota State Moorhead. I have survived welcome week, finding my classes on the first day, and being an awkward loner in the dining hall. Even though I have yet to be here for a month, I have already experienced many thoughts and problems that only a new college student can relate to.

"Make sure to get involved when you're in college!"

We've all heard some variation of this phrase, whether it came from parents, other family members, friends, RAs, or college-related articles. And, like many clichés, it's true for the most part. Getting involved during your college years can help you make friends, build your resume, and feel connected to your campus. However, these commitments can get stressful if you're dealing with personal issues, need to work, or aren't sure how to balance classes and everything else going on during the semester.

In college, one of the essential things to have is friends. Yes, textbooks, a laptop, and other school supplies are important but friends are essential. Friends are that support system everybody needs. The more friends you have the better the support system you have. But you also have someone to share experiences with. And don’t settle for just one or two friends because 8 out of 10 times they are busy and you are studying all alone. Or they have other friend groups that do not include you. Don’t settle for just one or two friends; make as many friends as you can. After the first couple of weeks of college, most friend groups are set and you may be without friends.

For a moment your world is spinning. The phone alarm has just scared you awake and you’re flooded by daunting thoughts of the day ahead. You have three assignments due and little time to work on them because of your job. You’re running late because you’ve hit snooze one to many times after yesterday’s long hours. You dizzily reach for a hoodie, craving its comfort, and rush for a speedy exit, praying you will have time to pick up coffee. Does this sound familiar?

Finals week is upon us. It is a magical time of year during which college students everywhere flock to the library in attempt to learn a semester's worth of knowledge in only a week.
