This Heat Makes The Cockroaches Able To F***ing FLY
Time Magazine

Flying. F*%$ing. Cockroaches.

Literally.

If you live in the northeastern region of the United States, then I'm so sorry for you. Not only have you been enduring this massive heatwave, which is leaving us all dripping with sweat and anger, but soon enough you might have to walk around in a goddamn hazmat suit. Because yes, you did read the above correctly; the cockroaches may start to fly.

Apparently, we've finally hit the perfect combination of heat and humidity, which turns the air into a nasty soup that "encourages them to fly... when it's warm and steamy, that's what they like." This officially makes them (according to my own analysis) the most disgusting pieces of shit ever.

New York City is expected to be the most affected area, according to Weather Nation TV. While this would be a new apocalyptic phenomenon for the Big Apple, it turns out that it isn't a new sensation in the U.S.A. One Facebook user says, "Cockroaches have always flown back in Missouri... New Yorkers, look out. These things will hit you in the head when you're driving at night or out in the yard."

So, depending on where in the United States you are, you will probably see this news in one of two ways. If you're from New York, you're probably debating setting your house on fire and moving to Colorado. If you're living somewhere where this horrific event is already a daily occurrence, then you're probably glad that some more people are going to be suffering alongside you.

If you want to read more about flying cockroaches, then you can feel free to read all about them right here, because I honestly couldn't be bothered to research this disgusting and disturbing topic anymore.

Basically, it's so hot out that you should absolutely never leave the air conditioning ever unless it's an emergency. And, as if that wasn't bad enough, now you should probably keep an eye out for cockroaches buzzing around your head.

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.
