As semesters come to an end they always feel like they flew by. We sometimes forget all the details and small memories that pass us by while we are busy running towards summer. The result is that it doesn't feel like much happened by the time we get to the final week. However, it is important to remember that you did a lot this semester and you should not let it go unnoticed.


1. You probably did your laundry a few times.

2. That one time you were ahead on your homework.

3. Eating 3 meals a day.

It can be hard to find the time in your day to feed yourself three whole times but it's pretty cool when you make it work.

4. Going to the gym.

Who cares if it was just the week before Spring Break. All that matters is that you went.

5. Brushing your hair.

6. Feeding your pet.

7. Going to your morning class.

It doesn't matter if your first class is at 8 A.M. or 11 A.M., nobody ever is in the mood to go, but you went and I am proud of you.

8. You had at least one conversation with your TA.

9. You went to office hours (or maybe planned to).

10. You kept your high heels on the entire night.

11. You only called out of work like once.

12. You made your own doctor appointments.

13. You cleaned your room.

14. You sent an adult email.

15. You got out of bed the first time your alarm went off

16. You only spent money once during your day.

17. You probably finished multiple seasons of a show on Netflix.

18. You did that one thing for extra credit.

19. You kept a pretty decent planner.

20. You remembered to call your parents.

This is easy to do when your parents help you through those hard times.

21. Didn't get arrested.

22. Made new friends.

Whether it was joining a new organization or taking a different class, you met someone new that you really appreciate.

23. You made it to the library at least once.

24. You didn't loose your phone or keys while out.

25. You took your car to get an oil change.

26. You got an adequate amount of sleep that one night at the beginning of the semester.

27. You avoided that one crisis that one time at that one place with that one person

You know what I am talking about.

28. You were the mom of the group one night.

29. You stayed in that one time to study/do homework.

30. You passed (most of) your classes

One of my biggest pet peeves is when someone does not try to help their self before asking others. How can someone else be expected to help you if you do not first do that yourself? I'm all about helping those that need it when the time comes, however whenever someone does not even attempt to help him or herself first then that becomes a huge problem. As we all have learned, people tend to take advantage of us in one way or another. I am sure we all read this short story when we were younger and it follows that same principle:
