6 Things Student Athletes Are

Hungry.....as in food.

6 Things Student Athletes Are
Maggie Reid

1) Tired

Between early morning practices, homework, and lift there never seems to be enough time in a day for sleep.

2) Hungry

I don't mean 💯 😤 hungry I mean actually hungry, as in I can eat that whole pizza if you're not quick enough

3) In pain

Your muscles are either aching or you are injured. Aspirin is also your best friend.

4) Broke

You love your team so much you spend so much of your money on gear telling everyone you do this sport.

5) Grateful

You're just so happy to be apart of a team and doing the sport you love that all the pain is worth it, so are the 6 a.ms and the lift sessions, because you know they are making you so much better.

6) Busy

Some days, when I practice at 6 am I don't even have time to shower until 6 pm! Between practice, classes, homework, clubs, homework there is no time. No time. And the time you do have you either spend it and be productive or, like me, watch netflix and nap. Then look at the time and stay up late doing homework, only to wake up early and start all over again.

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!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.

December... it's full of finals, due dates, Mariah Carey, and the holidays. It's the worst time of the year, but the best because after finals, you get to not think about classes for a month and catch up on all the sleep you lost throughout the semester. But what's worse than finals week is the last week of classes, when all the due dates you've put off can no longer be put off anymore.
