My sleep habits suck, might have to nap on campus, no one will judge me.

Every student chooses a different way to express their "back to school" thoughts. This semester I've decided to add some angsty poetry to my usual routine of complaining about school to my friends.

And now I present to you some mediocre haikus:

1. Brand new school supplies,

Why is this so expensive?

Erasers smell good.

Erasers smell awful, aren't I a great poet?

2. Why is it still hot?

Get it together Georgia,

School equals autumn.


Guess I can't wear leggings until November (sigh). It doesn't help that the classrooms are as freezing as Antarctica.

3. My sleep habits suck,

Might have to nap on campus,

No one will judge me.


Scratch that, will DEFINITELY have to nap on campus. I call dibs on the swinging chair in the shade.

4. Rate My Professor

Is much better than Google,

It saves GPA’s.

And who needs their GPA saved? That's right, all of us who are trying to keep our damn scholarships, that's who.

5. Where is my planner?

I should be more organized,

I can manage, right?

Maybe I'll just put everything in my phone and that'll help. Maybe I'll buy another cute planner from Target. Maybe not.

6. At least it’s easy at first,

Syllabus week should be chill,

Too bad it’s dull.

A moment of silence for the professors who barely even acknowledge a "syllabus day" and dive right in.

7. Maybe I’m dreaming,

It can’t be time for school yet,

Please summer come back.

Summer 2K17, you were great while you lasted.

8. Nope Nope Nope Nope Nope

Nope Nope Nope Nope Nope Nope Nope

Nope Nope Nope Nope Nope.

That's all I've got, folks.

When I was learning how to talk, I was taught both Portuguese and English at the same time. In elementary school, I started taking mandatory Spanish classes, which I did well in because of my knowledge of Portuguese. Then in high school, on top of taking Spanish, I also started taking French. Now, in college, already fluent in English and Portuguese, I'm in the process of becoming fluent in Spanish, and I have a standard high school level understanding of French.

I am without a doubt one of those people who refuses to start decorating for Christmas or listen to Christmas music until after Thanksgiving. Unfortunately, Thanksgiving has become an underrated holiday over the years. You barely see any Thanksgiving decorations in stores; it's like they skip right from Halloween to Christmas.

Some universities only get two or three days off for Thanksgiving break. Or, if your university is like mine, you get the whole week off go go home. A whole week off is a long time.
