If You Give A College Kid Some Homework

You will have to bring them more coffee.

If You Give A College Kid Some Homework
Kayla Short

If you give a college kid some homework, they will want to get some coffee.

So, you take them to Starbucks.

While at Starbucks, they will see and be reminded of a book they want to read.

You will have to take them to the library to find that book.

While searching for that book, they see a sign that says "Free Puppy Hugs!"

And you know what that means.

Exactly 45 minutes and 50 hugs later, you walk out of the library.

Right outside, you meet a friend of theirs that they haven't seen "in, like, five-ever!!"

So, you patiently wait for them to catch up on the latest gossip.

They finally part ways, and you remind them of their homework.

They check their backpack to make sure they got everything, and realize they totally left it behind in the classroom.

So, you go back to get it.

Going back to the classroom, they pass a vending machine, reminding them of how hungry they are.

The candy bar you get them will not be enough, so you will have to take them grocery shopping.

As you walk around the grocery store, you will pass the cleaning supplies aisle. This will remind them how dirty their room/apartment is, so you will have to take them back and wait as they tidy up a bit.

Two hours later, they will feel exhausted, and want to sit down to relax for a while.

They will want to watch Netflix.

Three and a half shows later, you remind them of their homework that they have yet to complete all day.

This stresses them out, so they will take a nap.

They are VERY grumpy when you try to wake them up after 15 minutes, so you wait another hour.

They finally stir, and claim they had a dream about finishing the homework. You sadly tell them it is still not done yet.

They cry.

You tell them to wait until tomorrow to finish it since it's not due immediately.

But if you tell them to procrastinate, tomorrow they will simply be given more homework and be reminded of how much work they have to do.

You will have to bring them more coffee.

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.

December... it's full of finals, due dates, Mariah Carey, and the holidays. It's the worst time of the year, but the best because after finals, you get to not think about classes for a month and catch up on all the sleep you lost throughout the semester. But what's worse than finals week is the last week of classes, when all the due dates you've put off can no longer be put off anymore.
