18 Life After Syllabus Week Moments As Told By The Real Housewives

Syllabus week, for those of you who can't put two and two together, is a week where teachers go over the syllabus and their expectations for their perspective classes. Shocking, I know. Therefore there isn't any intense work (unless your teacher is Satin) except for getting your school supplies together, ordering over-priced and over complicated textbooks, and more importantly finding where your classes actually are. Throwback to when I walked actually 5 miles trying to find one of my classes and called my mom (as if she knew where it was) like 30 times. Good times.

This is the time for everyone to get back into the swing of things, re-connect with friends, stay out late and contemplate if we really need to go to class for the rest of the semester. Unfortunately just like everything else, it must come to an end and real life starts (boo). So here are 18 instances we'll all go through for life after sylly week as told by the most dramatic girl group there is, the Real Housewives:

1. Waking up for your 8 a.m. and actually having to learn something.

2. Trying to read a textbook because all you did this summer was read memes.

3. Sitting in classes that require you to remember concepts and equations from last semester.

4. Contemplating why you're in school in the first place.

5. Dragging yourself to classes where attendance is mandatory.

6. Looking at your handwriting and wondering if you ever actually went to first grade.

7. Doing homework for 5 minutes and then taking a 4 hour nap because your mental endurance is low. Very low.

8. Having one tear fall as you spend your life savings on required reading material that you know you're not going to read anyway.

9. Looking around the class to see if everyone is just as confused as you.

10. When the teacher says that he/she doesn't believe in extra credit.

11. Gathering in the common room with your friends to complain about how much work you have instead of actually doing it.

12. Counting down the days till the weekend so you can finally relax even though you told yourself you were going to be really productive.

13. Switching out of classes that seem slightly hard even though you have to take them before you graduate.

14. Getting a weird high of organizing all of your binders and folders and planner, but then panicking every time you open them to take notes.

15. Trying to remember what it's like to study, but all you can remember from last semester was how much you would eat to avoid studying.

16. When the teacher says you have to participate in class.

17. Realizing how close the first exam is, but then get confused as to what it could even be on.

18. Finally coming to terms with the fact that this is how it's going to be for the rest of the semester and that you should probably get your life together.

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.
