With the fall semester approaching, Summer'16 has just about come to an end. This week entails the lasts of summer which means attending the last parties, meeting up with friends from home, finally the last week of work,and the last of just about everything before your mind is clouded with the loads of work receive syllabus week. While its unfortunate that school is starting, nothing is more exciting than finally having the freedom you're used to. Sure parties will be replaced with classes and all-nighters Netflix binging will turn into all-nighters of doing papers but its worth it right? Here are 4 signs you're beyond ready for fall semester.
You've already packed all your clothes
Some might say you're super organized you're just saying you're ready to get out of your house, packing is the most gruesome task of going back to school. You either over pack or under pack and you're never sure what to bring, my answer: bring everything. All of your clothes are packed into little suitcases, the mini fridge is unplugged and everything is at the door waiting to be situated into the car on Sunday. If it was up to you they'd already be packed in the car, anything to get you to back to school as fast as possible.
You have a countdown
When summer started we all had this internal clock that would remind you "oh it's June, schools in three months" but as soon as August hit the count down was more of a 20 days, 15 days, and now you sit at home in your room with a countdown on your phone that says "fall '16 in four days 10 hours and 42 seconds". Its not like you're counting down until classes, you're counting down to your roommate, friends, parties and all of the college things that don't actually include classes.
You went shopping for school supplies
As a college student back to school shopping isn't as fun as it was in high school, back then you'd get all the cool notebooks and pens to show off for the new semester. I used to buy gel pens every semester and color coordinate my notebooks with my folders and get a new bag every year. Now it's all about books for your major and money you throw to the bookstore or Cheggs. That hasn't stopped you, you already have all your textbooks for the semester in tow as well as all the studying apps and flash cards you're going to need this semester.
You made plans for the upcoming semester before it even started
You've already texted your friends and decided when you're going out to party, whose going to the homecoming events, if you're planning on joining any clubs this year and so on so forth, you just can't wait for the semester to begin so you can get back to being in the full swing of things again.
