I'm procrastinating by writing this article.

How You're Probably Feeling At The End Of The Semester, In GIFs

The time is upon us. We're getting to the end of spring semester. In high school, the end of the year was a time of excitement about the upcoming summer holiday, but once you get to college, the end of the year normally means crying into a bowl of ramen noodles, taking 15 minute power naps on the bus ride to class, and calculating the exact grade you need on a final to hurdle over the C-Wall. For those of you not on a college campus, the end of the semester is not pretty. Let me paint you a picture...


1. At first, you think you can manage homework, class, and a social life, no sweat.


2. But those due dates have a way of creeping up on you.



3. And you realize you have literally a week to turn this shit around.


4. But it's fine, everything is fine. We're all fine.


5. Except no one is fine. The entire campus is slowly but surely losing all hope.


6. You realize people can sleep anywhere, no matter the time of day, who's around, or what they should be doing.


7. You know exactly the grades you need to survive the semester with your GPA remotely intact.


8. You don't really have time to eat, nor do you have any money left, so you eat nothing but instant noodles and fast food for every meal. Plus, stress eating always helps.


9. You realize that any group projects you have are going to be disasters. You slowly lose faith in humanity because of the shortcomings of three people.


10. You'll have to give a presentation in at least one of your classes. Given your lack of sleep, lack of motivation, and lack of the will to live, it's going to be rough, but you'll try your best to make it look like you're not dying on the inside.

11. At some point, you'll come to accept the fact that you may have to drop out of college and become a stripper.



12. But in the end, you'll get through it all and make it to summer vacation, and all will be right with the world.


13. Until you realize you'll have to do it all over again next semester.

But hey, it's college. It's hard and confusing, but also pretty awesome too. Stay strong for the remainder of the semester. May the Finals Gods be with you.

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
