6 Signs You're Over School

As the year winds down and the weather gets nicer, it can become increasingly more difficult to stay focused in school. There are times where you find yourself up at 3 a.m. working on an assignment and you’re convinced this is the night you’ll officially lose your sanity.

You’ve considered dropping out, but you ’re paying way too much money to go to college and can’t afford to have it all wasted. Regardless, here are the six signs that prove you’re over the school.

1. You could fall asleep just about anywhere

You are exhausted all of the time and could literally fall asleep at any given moment. Without hesitation the answer to, “how are you?” is simply, “tired.”

From the moment you wake up (approximately nine minutes before you need to leave for class) you are already mentally over the day ahead of you. And when you walk out of your 8 a.m. with three new assignments, the ground has never looked so appealing to take a nap on.

2. You've stopped caring what you look like

When you wake up with nine minutes to get to class, your outfit is the lowest priority. You can impress people with your look on Friday night, but on Monday morning at 8 a.m. you're rocking the hobo look.

3. You're already planning your summer vacation

Forget that paper you need to write or test you need to study for, there are far more important things to consider. Like, "where is the best place to get a killer tan?" or "where can I escape reality?"

Of course planning your summer trips are an efficient way to occupy your time.

4. You can't function without coffee

You need coffee at 7 a.m. up until 11 p.m. and sometimes even later. It's the only way most people can get through their day and it's a reason most student’s are broke, too.

5. You’ve lost all effort on assignments

This is what you’re 10-page paper (that's due tomorrow) looks like. You’ve spent more time googling tips for how to make your paper seem longer than you have actually spent writing the actual paper itself.

6. You’ve looked into becoming a stripper

It has to be so much easier than school, right? It’s fine, we’ve all had that thought before and there’s no judgement.

Today I started my third week of college at Minnesota State Moorhead. I have survived welcome week, finding my classes on the first day, and being an awkward loner in the dining hall. Even though I have yet to be here for a month, I have already experienced many thoughts and problems that only a new college student can relate to.

"Make sure to get involved when you're in college!"

We've all heard some variation of this phrase, whether it came from parents, other family members, friends, RAs, or college-related articles. And, like many clichés, it's true for the most part. Getting involved during your college years can help you make friends, build your resume, and feel connected to your campus. However, these commitments can get stressful if you're dealing with personal issues, need to work, or aren't sure how to balance classes and everything else going on during the semester.

In college, one of the essential things to have is friends. Yes, textbooks, a laptop, and other school supplies are important but friends are essential. Friends are that support system everybody needs. The more friends you have the better the support system you have. But you also have someone to share experiences with. And don’t settle for just one or two friends because 8 out of 10 times they are busy and you are studying all alone. Or they have other friend groups that do not include you. Don’t settle for just one or two friends; make as many friends as you can. After the first couple of weeks of college, most friend groups are set and you may be without friends.

For a moment your world is spinning. The phone alarm has just scared you awake and you’re flooded by daunting thoughts of the day ahead. You have three assignments due and little time to work on them because of your job. You’re running late because you’ve hit snooze one to many times after yesterday’s long hours. You dizzily reach for a hoodie, craving its comfort, and rush for a speedy exit, praying you will have time to pick up coffee. Does this sound familiar?

Finals week is upon us. It is a magical time of year during which college students everywhere flock to the library in attempt to learn a semester's worth of knowledge in only a week.
