Picture this: Finals are over, school is out, you are home from college, summer is in full swing, you finally get to get a full eight hours of sleep. Your parents are curious people, they need to make up for the time when you were gone. These questions and statements might be too relatable.

This article was written purely out of humor. I love my 'rents

1. "Why did you go to bed so late last night?"

First of all, I went to be at 11, that's early. Second, at school, I went to bed like never.

2. "Why don't you go outside and get some fresh air?"

OK, yeah, well it's 8 a.m., did you plan on helping me drag my bed outside?

3. "No plans today? Where are all of your friends?"

First of all, once again, it is 8 a.m., they're probably all sleeping.

4. *Has same work schedule every week and goes to work at the same time each day* "You have work today? What time?"

Can't even count how many times I've gotten this one. I might start putting notifications in my mom's cell phone.

5. "It's 10 p.m.! You're just going out now?!"

If I was back at school, I'd probably just be showering and getting ready to go out, this, the time right now, is record time.

6. "When is the last time you ate all 5 food groups? You're going to get sick!"

Honestly, what even are the 5 food groups? Because all I know is


7.*Wakes up at 11 a.m., walks downstairs* "OH! Good afternoon!"

I admire the sarcasm.

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!

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.
