You honestly don't mean it though, right?

9 Things That Are Too True For Someone That's Always Late

Everyone has that one friend that is always late or you are that friend.

1. You honestly don't mean to be late.

It just kind of happens.

2. Setting 10+ alarms just to annoy yourself into getting up.

It seems like a great idea the night before, but in the morning it will feel like your biggest regret. You'll do it again though, because it works.

3. Saying you're leaving, when in fact you're just getting out of bed.

There really is no excuse for this, but it still happens.

4. Even if you get up/start getting ready early, you still might (probably will) be late.

You psych yourself out with all this free time and then you leave late.

5. You've mastered the five minute morning routine.

Brew coffee first, then fix hair, take off leftover make-up, brush teeth, change clothes, put make-up on (or save it for the car), grab stuff for the day, grab your coffee, and then out the door.

6. Putting make-up on in the car isn't even hard anymore.

Still don't recommend this.

7. Navigating traffic and slow drivers under time pressure has become so regular that it become a breeze.

Or you found the short cuts.

8. Your friends and family always bet on if you're going to be late or how late you will be.

Or they'll just get shirts that say "waiting for *insert name*" and you will get the shirt that says "I'm *insert name*"

9. There are certain things you are never or rarely late for.

Those people who witness this are missing a whole different side of you.

Here's to the chronically late, may you all make it to your next event right on time.

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!

The 5 Painfully True Stages Of Camping Out At The Library

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.

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.
