A College Semester As Told by How I Met Your Mother

A College Semester As Told by How I Met Your Mother

When you suddenly realize break is over, and it is finally the time to start back with classes...

The semester begins when the teacher hands out your first assignment...

You get your first assignment back, which you have dreaded to get graded... 

And you realize you didn’t do as well as you wanted, so you decide to go out.

You prepare to hit on a couple of people you see at the bar, hoping to ease the stress.

And you get upset because the crowd was not what you expected it to be. 

So you go home to the one thing that will make your night better: FOOD. 

The next day you chose to study harder for the next tests, but realize college is much harder than you want. 

So you continue the semester, scared now to open every grade that appears online. 

You begin to blame to teacher for not teaching you what you needed to know.

And you feel like you should probably just give up on life. 

But you realize you have already put this much work into it, that you should stick it out. 

And that sudden wake-up call allows you to push through the last bit of work for the semester. 

So you can prove to your parents that making college your new home was something that they can be proud of 

Because once it is all over, you can forget everything you have learned.

The semester will come to an end, and it is time to start saying some goodbyes 

But after all the stress of the semester you all will be happy, because you all made it one to remember and one you won’t regret

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.

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.
