Throw yourself back seven years ago... you’re 13, and you just had the WORST day at school. You had a math test, Tori wore the same outfit as you (as if you didn’t already HATE Tori enough), your mom mixed up your lunch with your little sister’s so you had to eat a bread-and-cheese sandwich instead of your usual PB&J, and, to top it all off, Jake doesn’t like you back!!!

Thankfully, however, this day from hell is over. All you want to do now is sit on the bus in peace (given those eighth graders in the backseat decide not to shoot Olivia’s tampons at the driver’s head this afternoon) for the next 20 minutes with your iPod nano and think about the day, and what nasty thing you’re going to post on Facebook about Tori without actually mentioning her name. And, chances are, these songs are ALL bound to be gracing your earbuds.

The Daily Struggles of Being a College Commuter
morethanwheels

I've been in college for four years now. I spent half my time as a commuter and half as a resident so I've experienced both sides of the housing spectrum. One thing I've learned comparing the two is that my struggles as a commuter far outweigh anything I went through while living on campus. Commuters have to deal with the problems school brings along with a slew of other issues; I've filled up my gas tank in the worst kind of weather conditions and napped in random places in public more times than I'm proud to say of. This is a list of some of the most challenging aspects of being a commuter.

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!
