My eyebrows are so important to me. They frame the face and are the best tools for silently voicing my thoughts. The problem is, every time I have grown out my eyebrows, so they will be thick and awesome, when i get them done the people made them to thin. When I finally found someone who did them perfectly it cost to much money. I could pluck them myself, but I don't trust myself with such an important task. I've had friends offer to do them and that is a fun adventure that I finally went on. These are the emotional stage of letting your friend pluck your eyebrows.

1. Denial

This is when your friend offers to do your eyebrows and you look in the mirror and pretend that they look perfect and the exact way you want them. If you are super dramatic, you might get angry at your friend for even thinking you need to clean up your brows, even though you are the one who brought it up.

2. Doubt

She is starting to sway you a little. You do really want to clean up your brows, but you don't want them to be messed up. She tells you about other people's brows she's done and how much they loved it and you demand pictures. This phase could last between 10 minutes to a whole week.

3. Acceptance

This is an exciting time when you finally agree to let her touch your face and rip hair out of it. You guys schedule a time because you don't want to be rushing during it.

4. Fear

You are finally sitting down ready to let your friend do her thing. When she goes to get the tools, it hits you that once a hair is plucked you can't unpluck it.

5. Trust

You know your friend and you know she'd never let you go out with busted looking eyebrows. You've seen what she's done to herself and others everything is going to be totally fine.

6. Fear Again

Everything is not going to be totally fine! You are freaking out! She started plucking already so there is no turning back but your super scared of moving forward. She won't let you look till she is done so you are just sitting there in fear of what you'll see when he hands you a mirror.

7. Happiness

She hands you the mirror, you take a steadying breath. You look awesome! She did an amazing job, which you knew she would, and now you guys share this special memory.

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.
