Get your popcorn out, your snuggle buddy, and your persuading skills ready because every movie night transpires a friendly altercation between you and your S.O. about what movie you will watch. If it's been months of action, science fiction, and drama movies, you may be yearning for a good old romantic comedy. However, guys have this unjustifiable notion that these rom-coms are just for girls.

They don't want the effeminate cooties to rub off on them.

Nevertheless, society's gender stereotypes are simply ludicrous–everyone enjoys a break from life and "chick flicks" is your best bet to do so. I've contacted a few men and coaxed them to admit which romantic comedies they actually enjoy because, news flash, one's masculinity doesn't vanish while nestled up with your lover.

If anything, you become more of a man as your girlfriend places you with higher regard and falls deeper in love with the gentleman who just wants to spend time with her.

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!

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.

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.
