5 Stages of Writers Block
UCWbling

Have you ever just stared at your computer and not know what the heck to write and think to yourself “Oh great! Now I got writers block!” Writers block is that big P word, a pain, a BIG pain in the butt. These are the five stages of writer's block that you will reach.

1. Frustration

This is the first stage of writers block because this is when you finally realize that you can not think of anything to write and you just want to bang your head against the wall and scream.

2. Annoyance

This is the second stage of writers block because you are annoyed at the fact that your brain cannot function to create words and sentences in enough time for this assignment to be due.

3. Anger

This is the third stage of writers block because you are just getting pissed off at the fact that there is just nothing but a blank document on your computer with only your name and nothing else

4. Stress

This is the fourth stage of writer block because you are finally realizing that the deadline is coming up for the assignment to be handed in.

5. Anxiety

This is the last stage of writers block because you are probably very near the deadline and your heart is racing and you still only have your name on the document when the assignment is due the next morning.

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!
