The First Week of Spring Semester, As Told By House

Let's be honest; we're all feeling a little bit like Greg House right now.

The First Week of Spring Semester, As Told By House
The House MD Late Blog

We all know that feeling; coming back after winter break, dragging along, full of candy and cookies, used to staying up until early hours and sleeping until noon. It's rough, getting back into the swing of the semester. Around this time, I think we can all relate to Dr. House - grumpy, in pain, and sarcastic AF. Here's how you know precious winter break been's banished and you're having serious side effects.

1. Getting up on the first day of class:

Seriously, the struggle is real. Especially when you hit the snooze button too many times and can't go for coffee before class. Sometimes the balance lies between putting on nice pants or sleeping nine more minutes and going to class in last night's leggings.


2. When your professor gives you an assignment on syllabus day:

There's a special sect of hell for professors who give assignments on syllabus day. SYLLABUS DAY IS RESERVED FOR ICEBREAKERS AND 15 MINUTES OF CLASS, DAMNIT.


3. When none of your friends are in any of your classes:

The first week is the hardest. But then we realize we'll make it through.


4. When ALL of your professors give assignments on syllabus day:

Sometimes there's just too much bad in the world to focus on the good.


5. When your professors feel the need to share their entire life story on the first day of class:

Lady, I get it. You've been married twice and you're really proud of your houseboat. Now teach me something or let me go.


6. When that girl comes to class dressed to the nines:

You say it's for you, but we all know you're looking to impress the blonde guy three rows back, two seats over, with the orange Patagonia jacket and the pretentious Yeti cup with a Sigma Chi sticker on it.


7. When the professor says, "this class will be one of the hardest you ever take."

They say it, but rarely ever do they actually mean it. I'm pretty sure they're obligated by contract to say this so you'll actually put some effort into it.

8. When the teacher asks everyone to introduce themselves for the thirtieth time today:

I'm pretty sure I dislocated my neck from rolling my eyes too hard.

9. When your professor tries to relate some lame story about their life to the content:

If we're being honest, does anyone care?

10. When you're done for the day and realize this semester is going to be just like the last:

Let's hope that this doesn't set a precedent for the rest of the class.

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.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. 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.
