8 Times Ron Swanson Summed Up Summer Classes

Taking summer online classes can be necessary for some students, like those with very difficult or highly structured majors who don't want to take full schedules every semester. These classes can also be for the bored mind who wants to try as many different subjects as possible. Maybe you need to take this range to decide on a major, or maybe it's just for fun. If you are like me, you have been forced into taking additional summer classes just to stay on track and not be constantly stressed out all the time. This is the journey of being forced to take summer classes, as told by Ron Swanson.


1. Your professor trying to start off the class with optimism.

A lot of summer professors have a talent for giving you hope that the class won't ruin your summer plans. Oh how quickly that hope gets dashed.

2. When you realized an hour before that your online homework is due.

You are locking yourself in a room for the next 59 minutes and cranking this sucker out.

3. When the directions for an assignment make no sense.


You've already emailed the professor three times with other questions, so you'll just have to figure this one out on your own. This would sound a lot better if you could talk in person when the questions just string together.

4. Halfway through the summer and this class.


As much as you love the season of summer, the sooner it ends the sooner you can stop this required class that feels pointless.

5. Becoming better at avoiding homework as the summer progresses.

Dishes and laundry are important too.

6. When your computer decides to stop working when you need it most.


If the computer had waited five more seconds to crash, you would have had time to save the assignment.

7. On the weekends, enjoying life in between assignments.


Don't forget that quiz due Sunday night though.

8. When you finally finish the class and submit your last assignment.


It's over. You can breath again. Just a week off then the real classes start back up again, but you will enjoy every second of it.

Summer classes are good for making up credits that wouldn't fit into the semester. However, between working, accomplishing adult tasks, and trying to take advantage of summer activities, I would really take into consideration if the summer classes are worth it. Wouldn't it be nice to just have a couple months where you never have an assignment to turn in before a deadline?

One of the most dreaded places on campus is the library. Nothing awesome ever happens here. Usually, the only reason you're here is because you've procrastinated so long that the library is the only place you'll actually get stuff done. It gives you this feeling of sadness and impending doom. You have no idea how this is going to go or how long you'll be here, but you do know it is about to be the most excruciating experiences yet. But it has to get done, so you drag yourself to the lovely library.

Deciding on a goal can be hard, unsure of what to change for this new year. A new goal for myself is to be happier and take care of myself more. I am a very driven person; so driven that I commit to a million and ten things.

It is that time of year again. Christmastime. It is one of my favorite seasons for a myriad of reasons. Here are just a few reasons why I love Christmas. This list is in no order of importance.

1. The Christmas decorations

I am that person who will decorate directly after Thanksgiving is over. This year, my roommates and I put the tree up in our apartment before we even left for Thanksgiving break. It is a great stress reliever for me to just sit in my living room and work on the huge amount of work I have before the semester is over.
