8 Things Were All Going Through A Month Into School

You don't know if you should just sit and cry, actually do some work, or go take a long nap and avoid responsibility.

8 Things Were All Going Through A Month Into School

Its that time in the semester when everything starts getting all too real. Everything is happening at once and you don't know if you should just sit and cry, actually do some work, or go take a long nap and avoid responsibility. We are all experiencing way too much at the moment.

1.) All the tests

Every professor knows that every other one is having a test the same week and probably the same day but its college so they do not care. One time in high school my teacher found out another teacher was having a test the same day and switched our test to another day; don't ever expect that to happen again. So when you along with half of the student body are living in the study room, just know everyone understands.

2.) Running out of money

Yup. It's that point in the semester where all the money you saved all summer is gone, and you have no idea what you've spent it on. Getting a job is a terrible idea since it'll take up the extra time you have to go out, so it looks like you'll be begging mom and dad for some help.

3.) All your homework is due

For those teachers that give homework in bulk, they also all have it due at the same time. Did you use time management and do it piece by piece? Of course not. Now here you are on a Sunday trying to do it all before the next morning when it's due. Just remember this for the next homework assignment.

4.) Your liver hates you

You haven't had anything major due yet therefore your weekends, and some week nights, have been spent out with your friends with not a care in the world. But now you feel like a grandma/grandpa when thinking of going out, and you know that you will probably pass out if you try to go out and drink like you have been.

5.) Your sleep schedule is off

Spending the last few weeks doing as you please has not helped your sleep schedule. You're going to bed at 2 on a good night and not waking up 'til 12, even though you have those 8 and 10 ams. Let's get it together. New bed time is 11 pm and we're getting up at 8 am. We're all in this together.

6.) Gaining everything back

We all know how hard we've worked out this summer to get ourselves back together. That's all gone now that we have the munchies at 1 am every night, and we consider ice cream an acceptable meal.

7.) The plague

Somehow we have all managed to get sick at the same time. To the kid that sat behind me the other day and coughed all on my freshly washed hair, I'll let it slide this one time since I know we all have the same illness right now.

8.) All the stress

Yes, were all having a mental breakdown this week, but we'll all get through this together. Studying, sleeping, and eating habits are going back to normal now.

6 Unrealistic Expectations Society Has For Young Adults

Don't let the thesaurus-inspired vocabularies in our résumés fool you. We're actually just big kids.

Well over four feet tall and 100 pounds in weight, many of us "young adults" of the world still consider ourselves children. Big, working, college-attending, beer-drinking children. We may live on our own, know how to cook noodles, and occasionally use a planner, but don't be fooled; the youthful tendencies that reside within us still make their way into our daily lives. From choosing to stay up until 3:00 a.m. playing video games on a school night to going out in 30 degree weather without a coat, we still make decisions that our parents and grandparents would shake their heads at in disappointment. So why are we expected to know exactly how to be a wise, professional, sensible adult? It's not that we're irresponsible (for the most part, anyway). It's that we are young, inexperienced, and still have the sought-after, enthusiastic mentality that we can do and be whatever we want, which has not yet been tarnished by the reality of the world. These are just a few of the unrealistic expectations that society has for young adults.

Fandango

There are a lot of foods in this world, but there is only one dish that stands above the rest: Pizza. If you're close to me or at least know who I am, then you know that I'm totally obsessed with pizza. It's one of my favorite things to eat and I will NEVER turn down a slice, even if it doesn't have my favorite toppings. There isn't a day that goes by where I'm not thinking about pizza. I even sleep with a pizza pillow every night! There are many reasons why pizza stands above all other foods, and here are just a couple reasons why.
