We are college students. This means that we've passed the horrific part of our life where we have to set our alarms for 6AM everyday for our high school classes, have our parents drive us everywhere, and have our parents call us about why we're late for our curfew. These little, yet super important changes are just a few of the reasons why I can sleep better at night.... At least until those late night thoughts hit. Guess some things will never change? Here are 26 of my #LateNightThoughts that I've experienced as a college student -- and you probably have, too.
1. "Wait... was that paper due tomorrow?"
2. "I haven't called my parents in a while... I wonder if they're awake right now."
3. "It's a Thursday night... Why am I not going out right now?"
4. "At least I'm not still in high school."
5. "How many days until the weekend?"
6. "Hm... Should I check my bank account, my weight, or grades to commence tonight's mental breakdown?"
7. "I wonder if my friends are up right now and wanna hang out."
8. "I'm bored." – *Opens Snapchat, catches up on snapchats*
9. "I'm bored." – *Opens Twitter, catches up on tweets*
10. "I'm bored." – *Opens Instagram, catches up on pictures*
11. "I'm bored." – *Opens Facebook, catches up on grandma*
12. "I'm still bored." – *Repeats #8-11 a thousand more times*
13. "OK if I go to bed right now that will give me almost [insert less than necessary number of hours of sleep to function] hours until my first class tomorrow."
14. "OK it's already really late... Do I really have to go to my first class tomorrow?"
15. "Why is my sleep schedule so messed up?!"
16. "Maybe if I check my school email enough, one of my professors with send out a "class is cancelled" notification."
17. "Maybe I should get up early and workout tomorrow..... LOL nah."
18. "I'm hungry... But food is so far away."
19. "I'm thirsty... But drinks are so far away."
20. "I have to pee... BUT THE BATHROOM IS SO FAR AWAY"
21. "Wow, I'm in bed really early tonight - I'm proud of myself! .... But that means I'm definitely forgetting something"
22. "What am I going to say the next time someone asks me what my major is/what I want to do for the rest of my life?"
23. "I could be saving so much money if I didn't have to pay for college"
24. *Remembers that super embarrassing thing last weekend*
25. "Should I be doing something more productive right now.... Or with my entire life, in general?"
26. "OK enough is enough - PULL YOURSELF TOGETHER... Yep, it's bed time."
