8 Things That Happen After Spring Break

Spring break is that great time when you either go to the beach, go to the mountains, or go home. Best part: you are anywhere but school. When it ends, everyone is in the funk of their life and something is guaranteed to go wrong.

1. Your teacher gave you ten assignments and you waited until Sunday to do them.

It's called a break for a reason. In the end, it's either half done or not completed at all. It's okay though because you aren't the only one.



2.The bags under your eyes keep getting larger.

Spring break doesn't mean you sleep all day (even though that's what you say you will do). Most of the time it's staying up late doing whatever you can't during the semester. Add staying up at ungodly hours to the hours you stay up trying to make up for forgetting homework/tests/papers means those bags look worse.


3. Even though spring break is over you sill think about going to the gym.

Summer bodies, spring bodies, same thing. Rise 'n grind. All you want is that pizza. Then you think summer is farther away than it is and just eat all the pizza you missed.


4. You're done seeing people.

All you want is to sit alone and watch netflix or again eat pizza or maybe ice cream during a Grey's Anatomy marathon. You don't understand why everyone wants to talk to you. You saw them a week ago.


5. You get a test back you failed

Remember that test you didn't study for because the idea of spring break was only three days away? Well, you have it back now and the letter on it doesn't really come at the beginning of the grading scale. Maybe. There is always those few people who study so they can distract themselves that they aren't on break yet.


6. You get really excited to see your friends.

After the funk is gone. Then you realize you've missed your favorite humans to interact with.


7. Weather is nice enough to be outside!

You aren't confined to the library and can now study on the grass outside the library! Or you know, a table or park. Whatever floats your boat. Apparently hammocks are in, so hammock homework seems cool too. Just get outside and get rid of the pasty pale. It's good for you.


8. You realize summer and finals are right around the corner.

The funk cycle starts again. Here goes to more sleepless nights, starbucks doubleshots, and campus diets.

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!

For those long nights that turn into mornings when the struggle is real.

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.

Thanksgiving break is over and Christmas is just around the corner and that means, for most college students, one hellish thing — finals week. It's the one time of year in which the library becomes over populated and mental breakdowns are most frequent. There is no way to avoid it or a cure for the pain that it brings. All we can do is hunker down with our books, order some Dominos, and pray that it will all be over soon. Luckily, we are not alone in this suffering. To prove it, here are just a few of the many deranged thoughts that go through a college student's mind during finals week.

I know every college student has daily thoughts throughout their day. Whether you're walking on campus or attending class, we always have thoughts running a mile a minute through our heads. We may be wondering why we even showed up to class because we'd rather be sleeping, or when the professor announces that we have a test and you have an immediate panic attack.
