It's That Point In The Semester Again...
static.independent.co.uk/

Ahh... Welcome to midway through the midway point of the semester. You're about 65-75% done with the semester, officially. (You might be 1000% done with the semester personally.) And your struggling. Well, don't worry were right there with you. Dealing with the same issues, just different class, times, and majors. But, we're all in this together.

It's that point of the semester, it's really easy to just give up. I've told myself probably 100 times in the last week I was taking a personal week. (Unfortunately, that's not a reality and I still have yet to take that personal week, and it probably won't happen anytime soon.)

It's that point of the semester, where all of your professors decide to give you exams either all on the same day, or in the same couple days.

It's that point of the semester where you're involved in way too much, and you just feel like dropping out of your extracurriculars.

It's that point of the semester where you are running off 3-4 hours of sleep.

It's that point of the semester where you sometimes forget to eat.

It's that point of the semester you show up to class with the blanket you're crawled out of bed with.

It's that point of the semester where all of your professors give you a huge multi-page paper worth 10% of your final grade all due on the same day

It's that point of the semester where professors give way too much "busy work" for homework.

It's that point of the semester when you don't even know what friends are.

It's that point of the semester when you're completely broke.

Unfortunately, It's just that point of the semester again. But we will all get through this. Just don't give up, it'll all pass eventually, and then we won't have to worry about it until next semester but for now, it's just that point of the semester!

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.
