Get Rid Of Your Mid-Semester Blues With These Classic DCOM Lyrics

Finals are coming, the fun is done and it seems like our lives are over-- these next two months are going to drag on. I'm sure that's what we are all thinking right now. But, I'm here to help. Listen, early 2000s Disney Channel Original Movies (DCOMS) had the best soundtracks and I will defend that until my last breath. The music slapped. I'll be giving you advice a way we all understand. Disney Channel.

"We can't back down, not right now"

Like our girl, Mitchie, sang in "Camp Rock 2," "we can't back down." Think about it! You're halfway through, you just have to look on the bright side. Refresh your minds, use your planners and get your work done. The world isn't going to stop just for you, so keep it moving!

"You gotta get'cha, get'cha head in the game"

Our favorite heartthrob Troy Bolton has spoken. You gotta keep ya head in the game. Keep studying, keep practicing and keep getting better at whatever it is you do. Stay focused, time passes faster when your busy!

"Push until you can't and then demand more. Determinate, determinate"

Lemonade Mouth deserved better. But anyways, determinate means you need to go out, set a goal and reach it! Make a goal for this last half of the semester and turn your priorities to it. Whether it's raising your GPA or acing that really important final, you have got to push yourself to complete! Do your absolute best until it's done, then set an even higher goal.

"We're one and the same. I think we're almost legendary"

Rosie and Carter from the Princess Protection Program can speak for all of us. BONUS LYRIC: We're all in this together. Don't forget to lean on your friends and classmates. We can all help one another, we might be different but one thing we all have in common is we are all going through the struggle. Your weakness might just be someone's strength and vice versa. Try to meet new people, have a study group with people you aren't already friends with and just expand your horizons. (Also, you can do some networking and make some new friends!)

"Amigas cheetahs, friends for life"

The Cheetah Girls always knew what was up. Undoubtedly, the second half of the semester is going to wear some of us out and we'll need a little pick-me-up. That's when you turn to your friends, the people who have always been there for you. Hang out with them, do homework together, explore with your friends and just make some memories. They say you meet your lifelong friends in college, don't get trapped in stress and forget about the fun.

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.

winter

Thanksgiving break is over and Christmas is just around the corner and that means, for most college students, one hellish thing — finals week. It's the one time of year in which the library becomes over populated and mental breakdowns are most frequent. There is no way to avoid it or a cure for the pain that it brings. All we can do is hunker down with our books, order some Dominos, and pray that it will all be over soon. Luckily, we are not alone in this suffering. To prove it, here are just a few of the many deranged thoughts that go through a college student's mind during finals week.

"I want to thank Google, Wikipedia, and whoever else invented copy and paste. Thank you."

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.
