18 Thoughts Every Student Has On The First Day Of Class

If you started the second semester on the 17th of January like myself, then congrats! You survived the first week of the semester! We all dread going back to homework, studying, and 9 AMs, but once we get back into the swing of things, it will feel like you've never even left for winter break. Having entirely new classes with a new batch of classmates and professors, several thoughts run through your head during the first class of the new semester.

1. "What is this professor's name again?"

2. "I am a 20-year-old adult, why am I playing an ice breaker game."

3. "Why is my partner for the ice breaker game telling me his whole life story? I just asked for his major..."

4. "Why am I the only one in here from out of state?"

5. "Why does this syllabus seem so daunting?"

6. "I wish I went to a school that respects the holy holiday of obligation known as 'sylly week'."

7. "Ehhh...there's plenty of time until March, so I don't have to worry about these projects just yet."

8. "Oh no, it's that guy/girl that never stops talking that I had class with last semester!"

9. "OMG, they're already starting with their yapping and it's only 9 AM."

10. "I definitely have to pick a new seat tomorrow. I can't see the board."

11. "Why won't this guy just tell the professor which name he wants to go by? It clearly does matter."

12. "Why is this room hotter than Satan's Gates of Hell?"

13. "Does this professor realize my bank account barely has enough for lunch, let alone three textbooks?"

14. "Speaking of which, what should I eat for lunch today?"

15. "Why are these desks so close together?"

16. "Wait, what class is this?"

17. "We better be let out early, it's the first day!"

18. "Is it Spring Break yet?"

When I was learning how to talk, I was taught both Portuguese and English at the same time. In elementary school, I started taking mandatory Spanish classes, which I did well in because of my knowledge of Portuguese. Then in high school, on top of taking Spanish, I also started taking French. Now, in college, already fluent in English and Portuguese, I'm in the process of becoming fluent in Spanish, and I have a standard high school level understanding of French.

I am without a doubt one of those people who refuses to start decorating for Christmas or listen to Christmas music until after Thanksgiving.

Some universities only get two or three days off for Thanksgiving break. Or, if your university is like mine, you get the whole week off go go home. A whole week off is a long time.
