The start of a new semester is pretty overwhelming. New classes, new professors, and too many new things to stress about. Amongst all of this is also excitement and a new-found sense of productivity that was lacking from the summer months. These are some of the emotions that I went through during the first week back on campus.
Seeing a friend in one of your classes
Not expecting to know anyone in class and then seeing a familiar face walk through the door is the best feeling.
When your professor continues to assign endless readings
There's always that one professor who seems to want their class to take up all of your free time.
Everything is stressing me out
Was I this busy last semester?
I probably was this busy, but this feels a million times more overwhelming coming back from doing relatively nothing all summer.
I'm fine, everything's fine
Even though it all may seem like too much, feeling overwhelmed is natural. You just have to know that everything will work out in the end. What is meant to be will be.
