Since we just spent the last few days at home enjoying time with our loved ones and don't really want to be back at school, I thought I would share the reasons why students are unmotivated at this point in the semester. Here are six things that are holding us back from smiling during the last month of school:
1. Daylight Savings
I don't know about you guys, but daylight savings is still getting to me. I hate that when its 5:00 p.m. it feels like its 9:00 p.m. I never really feel like doing anything because I'm exhausted.
2. Winter
Snow is the absolute worst. Everything is wet, damp, slippery and cold. Why would you want to put yourself through that.
3. Homework
When you have 5 projects, 15 papers, and 20 other homework assignments due by Tuesday, and all you really want to do is watch Netflix and sleep for 5 hours... Because professors just really want to see how much they can give you until you break.
4. People
It's at that point in the semester where people just exist and annoy the crap out of you because you haven't slept in three days and don't have time to deal with anyone, and lets be honest, you don't even have time to deal with yourself.
5. We start freaking out about life
We registered for classes and are wondering if what we chose to do with our lives is really what we want to do.
6. Finals
We all know that finals are coming and we are seriously dreading it, so we make Netflix a top priority.
Yes, it's that time of the year and I hope that everyone can find some motivation to carry on, but if you can't, don't worry, you can always watch "10 Things I Hate About You" on Netflix.
