31 Thoughts Students Have The First Week Back
Prospective Doctor

As the new semester begins, students are torn between eagerness to start off the spring semester and dreading it at the same time. With the new semester brings plenty of new challenges and adventures. On the first week of school, there are a million things running through head of students, especially when it comes to the spring semester.

It's still early enough in the new year that some students are still trying to live up to their New Years resolutions, or maybe restart completely. The first week of school is always chaotic. Many people try to gather their thoughts and try to organize themselves for the semester ahead. Here are 31 thoughts everyone has the first week back to school:

1. I can't believe how fast winter break winter went.

2. Maybe I should check my Blackboard now...

3. This semester's looking rough.

4. Thank god, we have two Mondays off this month.

5. When's spring break?

6. How did I go to school at 7:30 every morning back in high school?

7. Ugh, I have to set an alarm clock.

8. I hope my textbooks aren't too expensive.

9. Was there always this many people in school?

10. Wow, I need a nap.

11. Why'd I sign up for a 9:45 a.m. class?

12. Why did I think taking a class at 8:25 p.m. was a good idea?

13. There's more students than seats in this class, how is that possible?

14. I'm gonna try to stay on top of all my work this semester.

15. Wow, this is a lot of homework for the first week. Do professors know it's syllabus week?

16. Should I even buy the textbooks?

17. Okay, on Rate My Professor this guy had a chili pepper and he's an old man, did I miss something?

18. I get you didn't see your friends over break but no need to stop in the middle of the hallway and scream.

19. There was an assignment due? It's only the second day.

20. How is it possible that I'm already behind?

21. I'll try to dress up and not look like I just rolled out of bed. *second day of class comes in actual pajamas*

22. Let me stalk all my professors on Facebook.

23. I can't wait until Friday so I can go out and forget about this week.

24. This honestly has to be the longest week in all of human history. I didn't think time could move this slowly.

25. How many more days are left in the semester?

26. Why is my professor already talking about our final project?

27. Is it even allowed for my professors to assign a 70 page reading due in two days?

28. Why is everyone walking so slow in the hallways? Oh my god.

28. Please don't make us work in groups.

29. Or introduce ourself to the class.

30. I need a fun fact about myself. What do I say?

31. This is going to be a long semester.

18 Things I Want To Do Now That I'm 18

I'm technically an adult, so I'm legally required to live a little, right?

Happy Birthday Cake

For the entirety of my high school career, I was always seen as the goody-two-shoes. I never got in trouble with a teacher, I kept stellar grades, and when I wasn't doing extracurricular activities, I was at home studying. Even when I did go out, it was usually with a bunch of fellow band geeks. The night would end before 11:00 PM and the only controversial activity would be a fight based on who unfairly won a round of Apples-to-Apples when someone else clearly had a better card (I promise I'm not still holding a grudge).

Now that I'm officially an adult, I want to pursue some new things. I want to experience life in a way that I never allowed myself to do prior to entering college. These are the years that I'm supposed to embark on a journey of self-discovery, so what better way to do that than to create a bucket list?

So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.
