There are so many things and it all just depends on the person and what their interests are. I tried thinking of some that could relate to the majority, but everyone's different and have different interests.

Usually, the only reason you're here is because you've procrastinated so long that the library is the only place you'll actually get stuff done. It gives you this feeling of sadness and impending doom. You have no idea how this is going to go or how long you'll be here, but you do know it is about to be the most excruciating experiences yet. But it has to get done, so you drag yourself to the lovely library.

It is that time of year again. Christmastime. It is one of my favorite seasons for a myriad of reasons. Here are just a few reasons why I love Christmas. This list is in no order of importance.

It is a great stress reliever for me to just sit in my living room and work on the huge amount of work I have before the semester is over.
