It seems as if the farther you are away from home, the more things you forget. And when your last final is at 8 p.m. Thursday and you need to leave your dorm at noon on Friday, you're bound to forget some stuff.

1. Your computer charger

And if you're the only one in your family with a mac, you're screwed.

2. (Just one) of your Bean boots

The right one's in your duffel bag. The left one is in a dark corner underneath your twin XL.

3. Your "Ugly Christmas Sweater Party" sweater

Guess it'll just have to sit in your closet until may.

4. All those snacks that are going to go stale before you get back

Shit! Could've eaten those during the car ride home.

5. A scratch-off worth $3 you got in some state you drove through on your way back to school in August

One of these days I swear I'm gonna cash that in at an Indiana 7-11. I swear.

6. Every single ounce of motivation you had during the semester

Yeah, I think I'm just gonna sit here, eat cookies and watch the Twilight Zone new year's marathon, thanks.

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.

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.
