PSA: There's currently a solar storm occurring. Symptoms associated with this include disrupted sleep pattern, fatigue, extreme thirst or hunger, irritability, and technology basically shits the bed. The list goes on. So, if you needed a scapegoat for your personality lately, here you have it. You definitely don't have an attitude problem, you're only being a complete bitch because your electromagnetic field is being seriously fucked with. It's like mercury is in retrograde, but like, with more science and shit behind it. While your slumped over your work desk wishing that you had an IV of coffee flowing into your bloodstream, it's like totally fine because you have such a legit excuse. Here's some examples of how it's not your fault, it's the universe's:

Disrupted Sleep Pattern

"No, I'm not still awake because I'm scrolling on my phone. It's the solar storm. Duh."



Extreme Hunger or Thirst

Go ahead. Have that third margarita. It's not your fault you're so damn thirsty. Same goes for the free chips the waiter keeps refilling.




GPS Not Working

"Ugh, I like tried to hard to meet you there but the solar storm is totally screwing with my GPS so, like, I couldn't come :( "



Technology Being a Piece of Shit

"It's not my fault I'm late to work, Karen. My alarm clock didn't go off because, like, the solar storm. The universe is actually out to get me??????"



Irritability

You're not a bitch. It's the solar storm and what not knocking at your electromagnetic field. Go home and take a nap, you deserve it.

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.
