21 Signs You're So Over This Semester

It's the time of the year when the countdown to final exams is actually acceptable. After final exams? Summer break. We're all completely over this semester and ready for summer. Here are 20 signs you're so over this semester — 99 percent of students experience these symptoms, but no, the student health center does not offer help for these. Even if they did, it's not like it would be covered in your tuition.

1. You spend more time calculating your grades than actually studying for your classes.

You have it calculated down to the exact points you need to still pass the class, even if you bomb the final.

2. You have so much to do and so little time

So what do you do? Nap.

3. You've made new friends in your classes solely so they can send you the notes.

Thank God for syllabus week, at least you know when the exams are.

4. You would rather gain weight than go to the gym.

The freshman 15 didn't hit you until the last eight weeks. Maybe freshman 30... or 45, I don't know, it's fine.

5. You would rather starve than go grocery shopping.

It's one extreme or the other.

6. You're running out of dry shampoo/ baby powder.

"When was the last time I showered?"

7. Margarita Monday

8. Tequila Tuesday

9. Wine Wednesday

10. Thirsty Thursday

11. Not even coffee does the trick anymore.

It takes about four coffees to act as one by this time of the semester.

12. You've really let your room go.

You probably need to hire a professional maid at this point if you ever want to see your floor again.

13. Your social media stalking skills have reached a new level.

You have to have a variety of ways to waste your time instead of doing homework. By the way, the kid who sits in front of you in Econ has a twin brother (three minutes older) who studies business at Harvard. He also has a girlfriend.

14. Your Google search history is a new kind of pathetic.

"Top 10 best paying jobs without a college degree."

"Do I have to go to college to be successful?"

"Annual salary of a stripper."

15. You ask yourself about 20 times a day if you can drop out.

You also ask your roommate another 50 times, they're getting pretty tired of it.

16. "'C's get degrees"

Just keep telling yourself this as you get your exam grades back.

17. Those 8 a.m. classes though...

If you do happen to make it, props to you, but you're just getting out of bed at 8 a.m.

18. You have a countdown until break.

It might even be your phone lock screen.

19. "When was the last time I did laundry?"

You're fine until your roommate says something.

20. You've started a new Netflix series.

And finished it.

21. 500 word minimum, only had 498 words.

THE END.

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. It's the one time of year in which the library becomes over populated and mental breakdowns are most frequent. There is no way to avoid it or a cure for the pain that it brings. All we can do is hunker down with our books, order some Dominos, and pray that it will all be over soon. Luckily, we are not alone in this suffering. 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 want to thank Google, Wikipedia, and whoever else invented copy and paste. Thank you."

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.
