For many, the Academy Awards is an extremely momentous and emotional time of the year; one in which the whole family gathers around the TV for four hours, and gawks over glamorous dresses, and heartfelt acceptance speeches. It's not difficult to feel envious of these celebrities, until you realize that your daily struggles as a college student may not be so different from their Oscar experience after all.

1. When you're trying to prove to your TA that you deserved an A on the essay you got a C- on.


2. When you show up to lecture 30 minutes late and everyone's staring.

3. When someone asks you if you've started studying for the midterm yet.

4. How you think your first date party is going to look like.

5. What it actually looks like.

6. When you've been reading Buzzfeed articles all class, and the Professor asks you to answer the question.

7. When you run into that girl who sent you her notes last quarter...but you can't remember her name.


8. When your roommate comes home from the party, and she's sober.

9. When you accidentally walk into the wrong class.

10. When the Professor announces that the final isn't cumulative.

11. When the guy your friend's been talking about walks into the party.

12. When you're unprepared for your partner presentation and neither of you knows what to say next.

13. When your math TA tells you that your answer is not possible.

14. When the squad rolls up.

15. When the Professor tries to be cool in lecture and makes an uncomfortable sex joke.

16. When your roommate comes home from grocery shopping.

17. When you can't handle college anymore, so you drop out to follow your dreams.

18. When the University hands out free swag.

19. When your roommate forgets to warn you to knock before entering the room.

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.

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.
