A Day In The Life Of A College Student

giphy.comEveryone knows that college kids have it rough. I decided to provide a brief outline of a typical day of a college student.

7:30...Alarm one goes off, groan, roll over, and turn it off

7:45...Alarm two goes off and you question if you really need a degree. Answer is yes you do but you hit snooze anyway

8:00...Alarm three goes off...throw some outfit on with a hat and go for the sporty look...still wondering if it's too late to drop out and be a flight attendant

9:00...Breakfast! Oh eggs! And toast! And that extra large coffee that tastes terrible but you need caffeine so you drink it anyway.

9:30...History class...This does not pertain to my major so why am I here? I wonder if flight attendants get good benefits?

10:30...Yay! Freedom and another coffee is needed!

11:30...Lunch time! As usual there is nothing good so settle for a salad and maybe a slice of pizza...and coffee.

11:45...freak out because you forgot to type that reflection that is due at 12:30

12:20...finish reflection and email to professor and thank the heavens that someone reminded you.

12:30...Psychology class. Now this class isn't too bad but if I was a flight attendant do I get stay in a location for a little bit?

1:45...NAP TIME! ...wait...there's a paper due at 5 and you have one paragraph typed...kick back another coffee...

3:00...boring class that is filled with common sense and the sound of snoring...could I be a flight attendant or should I try a travel agent?

4:15...Dinner! And, surprise, there is nothing good...again...suffer with a burger and fries.

5:00...Philosophy class...Blah blah blah Aristotle Blah blah blah...I wonder if a travel agent gets paid well?

6:15...FREEDOM!!!

6:30...Yes I want Chipotle what kind of question is that?

7:30..."No I did not study for my exam that is tomorrow"...*internal cry of anguish* Start studying...

8:30...Youtube Break!! Let's watch cats!!

9:30...Oh shoot! It's been an hour...okay focus back to studying...

10:30...Well that is as good as it is going to get if I don't know it now I never will.

10:45...okay shower time....and the showers are full...I'll wait till you and your off-key singing are done.

11:30...What is taking you so long?!

11:45...Finally I can shower.

11:50...Time for brief existential crisis of what I am doing with my life.

12:00...End crisis...and shower.

12:30...Type paper on "Why Philosophy is Important" or something like that. Still considering being a travel agent...

1:30...Oh man it's 1:30 I need sleep....but wait there's more! There's a psychology paper you need to type!

2:15...Well I guess I can do this tomorrow....

2:30...So a travel agent? Let's look up what is included in that...

7:30...Start all over again...Travel agent, eh?

College is filled with so much stress, it's no wonder we sleep all the time.

It's a time of love, family, memory-making, and gift-giving. But also a time of stressing over the perfect gift.

It's officially December. There is less than a month of 2024, and I still feel like yesterday was summer. Now comes the merriest time of the year, the Christmas season.

Everyone has been waiting for this time of year since mid-October (which is way too early, in my opinion) or before. It's a time of love, family, memory-making, and gift-giving. A lot of times when I ask friends and family what they want, I get a lot of "I don't know" or "I don't care."

Bucket List To Live In The Now

Find excitement in your life and start exploring wherever you are right here, right now.

mu bucket list

I was sitting at my cubicle, now that I am an adult, looking at the rain pouring down on the windowsill, bumming on life, wishing for the rain to just stop for a full day.

There are moments where we count down the hours until work is over and how many more days till the weekend, and this many weeks until something exciting. Or something like that? Well, I was bumming because my next day off from work is not until Memorial Day weekend, which is not until the end of May. And since this is my first year out of college being a “real person,” I am totally missing the winter, spring and summer breaks. I am sure all of us have felt this way even if just for a hot minute…

Great Value Colleges

If you go to or went to Kent State, then more than likely you have done or will do some of these things.

1. You’ve slipped and fallen on the ice at least once.
