If you're like me and think that Thanksgiving Break is exactly that- a BREAK, then you're probably panicking right now. You have papers piled up, assignments to do, and worst of all, finals are looming over your head like ornaments on a Christmas tree. Worst of all, it's finally socially acceptable to blast Christmas music and whip out your holiday themed fuzzy socks, but you can't even get in the Christmas spirit because you're too stressed. These are 7 thoughts you have after Thanksgiving Break.

1. When you realize you didn't do any work over Thanksgiving Break and you're totally screwed.

Professors, we know you didn't spend the break grading our papers. So why should we have to spend our breaks writing them? In retrospect, my passive aggressive protests of waiting until Monday to start probably wasn't the best idea.

2. When you wonder why your last exam is on the 18th, even though your high school squad is already home and on break.

Not sure how my Florida State and South Florida friends can start later and end earlier- maybe this is why tuition here is so expensive. Either way, seeing 80,000 seconds of Snapchat stories of all the fun they're having without you is going make it hard to be a Gator.

3. When you have to forgo Christmas parties to study.

The rest of your friends are going to Ugly Christmas Sweater parties and posting it all over Instagram. You're sitting in Club West and crying because you know it will take a Christmas Miracle to save your GPA.

4. When it goes from 80 degrees to 40 degrees in a day because it's winter, but it's Florida Winter.

I spent all of fall semester wishing it was cold. Now it finally is, it's too cold, and I spend my days walking to class shivering in the mornings and sweating to death in the afternoon. Make up your mind, Gainesville.

5. When you can't even burn Peppermint Mocha Christmas Candles to de-stress, because you can't have candles in your dorm.

This one might be a little too specific. Dorm life is hard. But then you realize that you don't even care and light it anyways.

6. When the freshman fifteen becomes a thing, because you're too busy to go to the gym.

Not to mention, you just gorged yourself on three days of Thanksgiving leftovers. It may be winter, but we live in Florida. Every season is bikini season.

7. You realize you're about to be broke AF.

Between Friendsmas, Secret Santa, and getting gifts for your actual family, your wallet is about to take a hit. And you're already spending extra on all that espresso you need for studying.

But even with all these struggles, you are still proud to be a Florida Gator, because you're going to crush all of your exams, making these struggles worth it.
