91 Thoughts You Have While Pulling An All-Nighter
  1. Wow, I have so much homework to do, I'll be up all night.
  2. Better chug some energy drinks to keep me awake...
  3. Okay, I'm ready to make this all-nighter my bitch.
  4. This won't be bad at all.
  5. I'll be such a good student after this.
  6. I better play some music that pumps me up so I get the zone.
  7. *slide one* Oh we talked about this in class, I already know this stuff. I'M TOTALLY ACING THIS TEST!
  8. Ugh, I hate this song. Skip.
  9. I wonder what my friends are doing?
  10. Probably sleeping, it's like 11:00 PM.
  11. But what if they're awake and doing something cool and I'm missing out.
  12. I'm having serious FOMO right now.
  13. I'll just check twitter real quick to make sure.
  14. I hate this song. Skip.
  15. *30 minutes later* WHOA, I swear I wasn't on twitter that long.
  16. But since everyone else is asleep, I can get back to studying.
  17. *slide 6* OMG WHAT IS THIS, I SWEAR I'M STUDYING THE WRONG CLASS!
  18. This can't be right, let me check the book.
  19. Oh, it is right...
  20. Maybe I should have read the book.
  21. Wow this class is so dumb, I'll never use this again so I really don't care.
  22. Why did I drink so much Monster (the white ones of course), I've probably went to the bathroom like 7 times already.
  23. Ugh okay, I really need to focus.
  24. I need a good grade in this class so I can graduate on time.
  25. Lol who am I kidding, I don't actually want to graduate on time.
  26. I wonder how mad my parents would be if I failed this class?
  27. That's what freshman forgive is for, right?
  28. So you can fail a class and stay in college longer and it won't mess up your GPA.
  29. Probably not, but whatever.
  30. It's probably because college is hard.
  31. This song sucks. Skip.
  32. I can't wait to graduate and never have to go to class ever again.
  33. *slide 8* This is the most productive I've been all semester.
  34. *gets back on twitter* Why is no one posting anything?
  35. I'm bored here. ENTERTAIN ME, PEASANTS!
  36. Shit how is it already 2 AM?
  37. Time flies when you're learning I guess.
  38. Only 34 more slides left to go
  39. Then I can start my 7 page paper.
  40. And finish up with my homework assignments.
  41. Ew I hate this song too. SKIP.
  42. OMG I have so much work left to do and it's already 2!
  43. I'm not going to get anything done.
  44. I'm going to fail at school.
  45. I'm going to fail all my classes and be a failure.
  46. I can't get a job if I'm a failing.
  47. *googles "jobs you can get if you're a failure"*
  48. FAILURES DON'T HAVE JOBS!
  49. OMG!
  50. Wait, if I drop out now then technically, I'm not a failure. I'm just a quitter.
  51. *googles "jobs you can get without a college degree*"
  52. Okay so I've got some options.
  53. I could be a stripper.
  54. I've heard they make good money.
  55. Oh but wait, I don't want to do that.
  56. Ugh I'm just going to be jobless and homeless for the rest of my life.
  57. *googles "homeless shelters near me"*
  58. STOP! FOCUS. YOU MUST PASS. YOU LIKE NICE THINGS TOO MUCH TO BE A FAILURE!
  59. *gets through all 34 slides in 45 minutes*
  60. Wow I'm so good at this school thing.
  61. I don't even know why I thought I would be a failure in the first place.
  62. Before I start my paper I'll check twitter, ya know just in case anyone is awake.
  63. Oh puppy videos! That will make this all-nighter a little better.
  64. I love puppies.
  65. *another 30 minutes later* How did I go from puppy videos to stupid vines?
  66. I have serious ADD.
  67. Okay I'm starting to get tired now and I'm out of energy drinks SOS!
  68. Ihate this song and it's putting me to sleep. SKIP.
  69. 4 AM is really boring.
  70. I wonder how long I've been awake.
  71. What is this paper on anyways?
  72. Was this even covered in class?
  73. I'm kinda hungry.
  74. I wish I had some snacks.
  75. Too bad I can't have pizza delivered.
  76. I guess I'll just starve.
  77. Why do all these terrible songs keep playing? Skip!
  78. I'm so tired this paper probably doesn't make sense.
  79. Am I even writing in English at this point?
  80. I don't even think my thoughts are English.
  81. I'm totally going to fail.
  82. Why didn't I do my work ahead of time?
  83. I'm sure everyone else in my class didn't procrastinate.
  84. I should really stop doing that.
  85. FINALLY! I'm done with this paper.
  86. I have no idea what I wrote, but, at least it's done.
  87. But I still have math homework.
  88. Screw this, I'll do it tomorrow.
  89. I need to go to sleep.
  90. If I fall asleep right now I'll be able to get three hours of sleep.
  91. Wow, I really hate all-nighters.

11 Things Summer Nannies Can Relate To

As a college student, being a nanny over the summer is both enjoyable and challenging. Underneath the seemingly perfect trips to the pool or countless hours spent playing Monopoly are the obstacles that only nannies will understand. Trading in your valuable summer vacation in return for three months spent with a few children less than half your age may seem unappealing, but so many moments make it rewarding. For my fellow summer nannies out there, I know you can relate.

To The Girl Who Falls Too Fast, Never Be Ashamed Of How Hard You Love

Love hard, every day, and never be ashamed.

If it hurts now, it'll hurt again. Not because you're gullible or naive, only because you fall fast, hard, and you do it every time.

We fall each and every time with the complete and utter confidence that someone will be there to catch us. Now that person we SWORE we were never going to fall for has our hearts, and every time we see them our palms start sweating. The butterflies in our stomach start to soar and our hearts are entirely too close to bursting out of our chests.

Growing up I have always wanted to own a horse. My grandparents own a well known equestrian facility in Georgia, so I have been riding since I was born. A bond between a person and their horse is a bond so strong that it cannot be broken. Everywhere I went I wanted to be around horses, even forcing my family to go on trail rides during vacations. Horses have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember has taught me great responsibility, as well as 14 things that all equestrians can relate to.

College is super hard. Between working, studying, and having a social life, it feels like a struggle to just keep afloat.

I understand. When you feel like your drowning and there's no way to stay afloat I understand that it feels like everyone else is doing just fine. I understand all the frustration, long nights in the library, and that feeling that you want to just throw in the towel. I understand that sometimes it's too hard to get out of bed because your brain is already filled with too much information to remember. I understand because I am also feeling pretty burnt out.

Some of the best advice I've ever received was from my social studies teacher in sophomore year of high school. He stated, "If you don't know it at midnight, you're not going to know it for the 8 a.m. exam, so get some sleep."

It's such a simple piece of advice, but it holds so much accuracy and it's something that the majority of college students need to hear and listen to. "All-nighters" are a commonality on college campuses in order to cram in studying for an exam that is typically the next day.
