As we all know, getting through some semesters isn't as easy as most people think. Most of us, however, experience these same feelings as we struggle through what seems to be a never-ending semester.

1. This is me when I first moved in.

I was ready to get straight A's, have 8 hours of sleep, eat 3 meals a day, and have a social life. These are unrealistic goals I set every semester, but it doesn't hurt to try, am I right?

2. This was me when the first round of tests came.

Having 3 tests 3 weeks into the semester was like a premature finals week. One second, you think you have your life together and the next, you're having a breakdown and questioning all life choices.

3. This was me when I received my grades back from those tests.

Depression.

4. This is me looking at the driver who almost ran me over on the crosswalk.

At first I'm upset, but then it changes to, "Hit me, I don't care. Pay my tuition."

5. This is me when a professor says "This isn't an assignment you can do last minute and make a good grade on."

Is he trying to challenge me?

6. This is me when my professor cancels class.

Sleeping in when my 8am gets canceled? Best feeling ever.

7. This is me when my professor doesn't cancel class even though the syllabus says we won't have class.

"I AM OUTRAGED!"

8. This is me hanging on to what motivation I have left to finish the semester.

"I just have to get through this week" - Me last week, this week, and every week until break.

9. This is me trying to calm myself once I realize that C's get degrees.

RIP to my GPA, immune system, sleep schedule, bank account, and life.

10. This is me when I realize Thanksgiving Break is right around the corner.

Ah, break at last. The semester isn't done but I sure am.

18 Things I Want To Do Now That I'm 18

I'm technically an adult, so I'm legally required to live a little, right?

Happy Birthday Cake

For the entirety of my high school career, I was always seen as the goody-two-shoes. I never got in trouble with a teacher, I kept stellar grades, and when I wasn't doing extracurricular activities, I was at home studying. Even when I did go out, it was usually with a bunch of fellow band geeks. The night would end before 11:00 PM and the only controversial activity would be a fight based on who unfairly won a round of Apples-to-Apples when someone else clearly had a better card (I promise I'm not still holding a grudge).

Now that I'm officially an adult, I want to pursue some new things. I want to experience life in a way that I never allowed myself to do prior to entering college. These are the years that I'm supposed to embark on a journey of self-discovery, so what better way to do that than to create a bucket list?

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.
