Goodbye Time, I'll See You When The Semesters Over

As the fall semester is coming to an end I find that we all need some "Me Time". Time to decompress and relax without stressing over school, but seeing as theres two weeks of the semester left and finals week is one of those two, there is no time-- like time is running away from all of college students out there and Time is laughing. Hysterically laughing as we try to manage everything. So here's a list of stuff we all wish we had time for at the end of the semester.

1. Naps

WHAT ARE THOOOOSE? Good question because in between studying, classes, running around trying to get everything done, and doing everything all at once, naps become nonexistent. Unless you are some college pro that is, and if you happen to have your college life figured out then congrats because I'm winging it.

2. Socializing

Those friends that you spend all your time with will be preoccupied with everything they have to do. Sure, you guys can do study sessions but how much work are you really gonna get done? When I'm with my friends we end up watching movies and doing literally everything but our homework and stuff we have to get done. Oops.

3. Netflix

No time to even check whats out for December, and don't even try to peek, there's no time for a break. You know if you sit down to watch ONE episode, you'll be there until you've finished the whole series. Or is that just me...

4. Food

Clarification: Good Food, and not On-The-Go food. Sit-down-and-enjoy-the-flavor-food. Instead you shove food or whatever your hands grab, into your mouth while running out the door to your next class.

5. A decent night's sleep

Sometimes your going to be up late finishing an assignment that your wonderful professor wants on their desk on the morning even though it was just assigned. Or you might feel overwhelmed and stressed out so your sleep is affected. But who needs sleep anyways? I'm fine, no, really, I'll sleep in a couple years.

6. Crying

IF ONLY THERE WAS TIME FOR CRYING ABOUT LITERALLY EVERYTHING. Sure, crying while working on homework is one thing but like a crying sesh may not be in your schedule right now. Which makes me want to cry.

7. Extra credit

Does extra credit even exist at the end of the semester? Is it still a thing? It might be and if you are that one student who is not stressed over everything then maybe, MAYBE there is time. But I'm not that person so...

8. Eating your feelings

Now there may be time for this if you procrastinate, but it's the end of the semester and procrastinating should not be happening. Nonetheless, eating your feelings is a great pastime, but one for breaks and holidays not when your trying to finish a semester's worth of work into a weekend.

9. Enjoying your morning coffee

Down that stuff and go. Don't even think about sitting your tired butt down to sip and enjoy, there's a time and a place for that and that is not now.

10. Reading this list

WHAT ARE YOU DOING, YOU HAVE NO TIME FOR THINGS LIKE THIS.

Today I started my third week of college at Minnesota State Moorhead. I have survived welcome week, finding my classes on the first day, and being an awkward loner in the dining hall. Even though I have yet to be here for a month, I have already experienced many thoughts and problems that only a new college student can relate to.

"Make sure to get involved when you're in college!"

We've all heard some variation of this phrase, whether it came from parents, other family members, friends, RAs, or college-related articles. And, like many clichés, it's true for the most part. Getting involved during your college years can help you make friends, build your resume, and feel connected to your campus. However, these commitments can get stressful if you're dealing with personal issues, need to work, or aren't sure how to balance classes and everything else going on during the semester.

In college, one of the essential things to have is friends. Yes, textbooks, a laptop, and other school supplies are important but friends are essential. Friends are that support system everybody needs. The more friends you have the better the support system you have. But you also have someone to share experiences with. And don’t settle for just one or two friends because 8 out of 10 times they are busy and you are studying all alone. Or they have other friend groups that do not include you. Don’t settle for just one or two friends; make as many friends as you can. After the first couple of weeks of college, most friend groups are set and you may be without friends.

For a moment your world is spinning. The phone alarm has just scared you awake and you’re flooded by daunting thoughts of the day ahead. You have three assignments due and little time to work on them because of your job. You’re running late because you’ve hit snooze one to many times after yesterday’s long hours. You dizzily reach for a hoodie, craving its comfort, and rush for a speedy exit, praying you will have time to pick up coffee. Does this sound familiar?

Finals week is upon us. It is a magical time of year during which college students everywhere flock to the library in attempt to learn a semester's worth of knowledge in only a week.
