It's that time of the semester again. The one that we've been dreading since the beginning --midterms. Many students are just cracking open their books for the first time since buying the textbooks. Now, they're cramming seven weeks worth of information into a long weekend study session. No one likes to study, especially for an entire weekend. Here are 40 things I'd rather do than study for midterms:

1. Let my 5-year-old nephew do my make up.

2. Blindfold my best friend and let her cut my hair.

3. Throw my phone off the balcony of my dorm on the 17th floor.

4. Only watch the saddest episodes of every show.

5. Cover my hand in paper cuts.

6. Pour a whole bottle of Purell on my freshly cut hands.

7. Eat dinner with Donald Trump.

8. Get locked in a room with my ex-boyfriend and his new girlfriend.

9. Only wake up at 5 a.m. for the rest of the year.

10. Only take 8 a.m. classes for the rest of my college career.

11. Re-organize a Forever 21 store.

12. Break my foot, again.

13. Lose my glasses.

14. Have a giant van drive through a puddle and cover me in dirty street water.

15. Tweeze off my leg hair instead of shaving.

16. Pour boiling hot water on my legs.

17. Have all of my Tinder conversations published on my social media and not be able to erase them.

18. Wear Crocs.

19. Ride the subway for 24 hours straight with a performer in the car.

20. Shave off one of my eyebrows.

21. Be stuck in the car with my dad giving me life lectures for 10 hours.

22. Only get instructions in Russian for the rest of my life.

23. Never be able to use Netflix, again. (Okay that one might be a lie)

24. Dye my hair booger green.

25. Marry Dwight from "The Office."

26. Only be able to speak in Pig Latin.

27. Move in with Jason Voorhees.

28. Do a juice cleanse every other week.

29. Lick a frat house bathroom.

30. Drop my phone on my face every time I use it in bed.

31. Have my nose ring get stuck on my pillowcase every night.

32. Only be able to post the most embarrassing pictures of myself on social media.

33. Have to go re-live my high school years.

34. Use my awkward middle school picture for my professional website.

35. Only eat the purple Skittles.

36. Have Dr. Seuss write all my essays.

37. Always show up an hour late to everything.

38. Get introduced to a guy's parents on the first date.

39. Have the world's slowest Internet.

40. Have Dr. Dre as my dentist.

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.

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.
