The 7 Questions You’ll Be Asked Over Break

1. Do You Have A Boyfriend Yet?

“Nope still single, but thank you for that constant reminder that I need to find someone to kiss by New Years Eve.”  I don’t even know why this question is asked half of the time, if there was someone important in my life you’d probably have to tell me to shut up instead.

2. What’s your major again?

Normally I wouldn’t mind telling anyone about my major, but after I’ve been asked 37 times within the same day, in a group of 10 people, it starts getting a little irritating.  I also love how this one can be followed with an “ohhh, what do you want to do with that?”  Give me a break, I literally just figured out my major.

3. How were your grades this semester?

“Can we please, please, please not talk about them right now.  I’m still suffering from PSD after finals week.”  This is what I feel like every family member asks you whilst eating Christmas dinner.  Can we change the topic to anything other than school, its Christmas, people!

4. Can I borrow your laptop real quick?

“Well, I sold my soul for this thing and I actually use it everyday… I guess but wash your hands first.”  Normally that is exactly what I tell my little cousins that just want to play Mine Craft, or look up weird YouTube videos that they think is funny.

5. Do you remember (enter irrelevant name of someone from high school)?

“No, I’m trying to block out high school days as much as I can, even though I’m in the motherland right now.”  I will have to say though this one is my favorite of all the irritating questions because it’s normally followed by some crazy pointless story about a person you can’t even remember.  Also if you say you don’t know who it is, the person with you normally spends about 5 minutes trying to describe them to you. Big high school probs.

6. Do you have any crazy stories from this semester?

This one right here is a great question for friends from high school that you haven’t seen in awhile.  But from that 32-year-old creep from work with a daughter.  You know the one that has tried multiple times to hit on you even though he’s almost twice your age.  “No sir I’m not telling you s***.”   The other person that might try this one is that girl that’s still in high school that survives off of gossip.  Be careful what you say to her, your entire hometown will know before the next day.

7. When do you go back to school? 

“Not soon enough my friend, not soon enough.”  I honestly never thought I would be someone who would love being at school until I started college. But, going back to school and starting classes are two completely different things.

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.
