It's bound to happen. Whether you're in high school, in college, or at work. Whether you think you have your shit together or not. Many people go through a mental breakdown at some point. But do you want a positive way to look at it? Through Spongebob. Everything is relatable through Spongebob. So without further ado, here are the stages of a college breakdown as told by Spongebob Squarepants:

1. Starting off your day with good intentions.

Most days, I try to start with a positive attitude. Even if I have a 9am, I'm not going to ruin my day with negative thoughts so early in the morning.

2. Going to class, also with good intentions.

I sit down in the front of the classroom and prepare for the lecture that's about to begin. This is usually about the time when things start going south.

3. Your mind starts to wander.

Biology at 9am? I'm going to think about how my life will look in ten years while simultaneously trying to remember what I ate for dinner on October 27th, 2007.

4. Class is over!


Class is done for the day, and you think it's finally time to live life! But instead, it's actually time to do homework...

5. You try to do work, but make no progress.

This happens to me everyday. I decide to work while I'm already in the groove after class, but I end up accomplishing absolutely nothing.

6. You take a break to do something else that is semi-productive.

This is usually the time when I try to do something other than homework that still feels productive. Maybe I'll do my makeup or clean my room. HA...never mind. I never clean my room!

7. Now...the actual procrastination starts. You think about everything except homework.

The mind wanders again...

Maybe I'll learn ten new ways to tie my shoe.

8. Okay. It's 6pm. Time to crack down.

And I realize that I have much more work than I thought I did.

9. Time to rush to get it done.

IT'S NINE O'CLOCK AND I AM NOT EVEN HALFWAY DONE!

10. Your stress levels are so high that you become delusional.

Actual footage of me after six hours of homework, realizing that it is midnight and I still have more to do.

11. Aaaaannnnnnnnnddddd the panic attack happens.

After the stress has been building inside of you for hours, it finally comes out at once.

12. You pick yourself back up and act like nothing happened.

Friends make everything better, especially roommates. So I usually apologize to my friends for forcing them to witness my insanity, and then we order a pizza.

There you have it. In all of its glory. A standard college freakout, as told by Spongebob Squarepants. They can happen in many different ways, and at any given time.

However, the important thing to realize is that you can always bounce back. Sometimes, you just need to let it all out.

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
