The End Of The Semester, As Told By The 'Gilmore Girls'

Freshman year is over, and like most other college freshman, this realization was heartbreaking to me. All of the memories that I made and experiences that I had this year seem like they've shaped me more than the previous 13 years of school before that all combined. My college town has been my home for the last nine months, so leaving for the next twelve weeks seems like an impossible thing to ask of me. I'll be carting myself home to New Jersey to watch all of my friends come back and forth to Athens for the next few weeks. I, however, will be learning more from Lorelai and Rory than I did all semester in Gen Chem so why not get a glance at the knowledge they have to share?

It's the week before finals. HOW?

Rory Gilmore refuting beauty expectations

There is no way that the entire semester literally already happened. Not possible.

All I can do is study. Someone caffeinate me.

Why didn't I start studying earlier?? I planned on being so prepared!!

Almost done with exams!!!

Sookie cries and laughs

So close yet, so so so far. Maybe one day I'll know what sleep is again.

No, I don't leave until Tuesday. Wait Tuesday is in three days??

You can't make me leave except for the fact that my lease is ending. But you can't make me leave.

When you are strictly running on coffee and adrenaline.

Like any good Gilmore Girls fan, I'm officially powered by that beautiful beverage.

FREEDOM.

Goodbye forever chemistry... until organic in August. But don't remind me.

Friends: please stop going home.

Where is everyone? Why are you gone? What am I supposed to do here without you?

Twelve weeks isn't all that long.

I'm trying to convince myself that this summer is going to go quick.

Twelve weeks is FOREVER.

I failed at that. This is going to be so long.

HI FAMILY I MISSED YOU!!!

WOW, I CAN'T BELIEVE I WASN'T THIS EXCITED ALL WEEK.

My mom just told me what to do...

Under her roof, it's time to play by her rules. Except that I'm used to having my own roof and my own rules.

TIME TO GO BACK!!

ATHENS HERE I COME!!!

The Battle Between College And My Mental Health

College isn't easy, and I'm afraid I'm not going to make it at the rate my mental health is going.

Everyone tells you that college is hard, but they fail to explain why. Sure, classes are hard. Math sucks, and political science can be so boring. But that's not even what's killing me about college. What's killing me about college is my deterioating mental health.

As a college student, I feel as if people don't understand just how exhausted I, and fellow college students are. We have so many things going on, all the time, and sometimes it's hard to explain to people how we feel. Personally...I'm tired. I'm sad. And I'm struggling every single day with my emotions. But the thing is, it hasn't always been this way. I haven't always hated school, so why am I feeling like this now?

For the average 20-something, life moves pretty fast. You’ve got classes, friends, relationships, jobs, family, and whatever else we overcommit ourselves with. I probably should have learned to say no to adding more to my schedule a long time ago, but instead here are 11 things that can be more helpful than coffee.

Resting b***h face. Defined as a person, usually a girl, who naturally looks mean when her face is expressionless, without meaning to. Many of you suffer from this "condition." You are commonly asked what's wrong, when nothing is. What people don't know is that is just your facial expression. Here are some things they wish you knew.
