43 Thoughts That Distract You During Class

Odyssey

Let's face it; we all zone out in class from time to time. Most of the time it's because we have something else on our mind. Every now and then, these thoughts distract us during class:

1. I'm hungry

2. I wonder if they are serving anything good at the dining hall tonight

3. Do I have homework to do tonight?

4. Did I do my homework for my next class?

5. Man, I hate doing homework

6. I really don't want to go to my next class

7. How many classes have I skipped this semester?

8. Should I take a nap when I get back?

9. I wonder what my roommates are doing right now?

10. I should really get back onto a normal sleep schedule

11. I am so tired all the time

12. I want to be back in my bed and watching Netflix

Adulting

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?

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?

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. 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.
