At the beginning of your relationship, you probably ate less on dates because you were nervous they'd think you're a pig..... but not anymore! When you're comfortable with each other, you large amounts of food, all the time!

4. They know your bad habits.

A bad habit of mine is eating a snack at night after I brush my teeth. At first, I would never let him know I did this... but after a while he knows and he doesn't care!

5. Going out to eat with family is completely normal.

Every time I see my family, the first thing they ask me is where my boyfriend is and if he's coming with us to dinner. They probably like him more than me anyways ;)

6. You are NOT texting each other 24/7.

At the beginning of our relationship, we were constantly texting each other, but now that we've been dating a while, we don't feel the need to text all of the time. We prefer to catch up in person and it's just as exciting! Not texting each other for a couples hours is no longer worrisome. I know we're both busy and I'm confident enough in our relationship to not need to know what he's doing 24/7!

7. Texting my S.O's family isn't awkward.

I'll send his parents a picture of us because I know he won't... and they love it! Texting his family is no longer weird because we are so comfortable with each other.

8. Time apart is refreshing.

When you go to school together, you want to be with your S.O. all of the time, because you live under the same roof, so why wouldn't you? But, when you become comfortable in your relationship, you no longer need to spend every waking second with them. It's refreshing to do things on my own!

9. You sleep like babies.

When we sleep next to each other, we sleep like babies. It's so comforting knowing he's there when I wake up in the middle of the night.

10. You don't give AF that you guys are so comfortable.

You actually kind of love 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.

University of Vermont

Thanksgiving break is over and Christmas is just around the corner and that means, for most college students, one hellish thing — finals week. It's the one time of year in which the library becomes over populated and mental breakdowns are most frequent. There is no way to avoid it or a cure for the pain that it brings. All we can do is hunker down with our books, order some Dominos, and pray that it will all be over soon. Luckily, we are not alone in this suffering. To prove it, here are just a few of the many deranged thoughts that go through a college student's mind during finals week.

I know every college student has daily thoughts throughout their day. Whether you're walking on campus or attending class, we always have thoughts running a mile a minute through our heads. We may be wondering why we even showed up to class because we'd rather be sleeping, or when the professor announces that we have a test and you have an immediate panic attack.
