Remember the fun of reading a new Magic Treehouse book? Author Mary Pope Osborne has created 55 books in the beloved series. A few of my go-to books as a kid were Midnight on the Moon and Tonight on the Tintanic. Well, good news! Your favorite adventurous siblings, Jack and Annie, are back! But by now, they're old enough to be in college. Here are the newest additions to the Magic Treehouse book series:

"Crying in the Cafeteria"

As Annie learns that college is stressful, Jack stumbles upon her as she is in tears at their campus cafeteria.

"Sleeping in the Stacks"

As finals are approaching, Annie and Jack realize it will give them more time to study if they sleep in the library rather than walking back to their respective dorms at 4 in the morning.

"Procrastination as a Pastime"

Loaded with assignments, both Jack and Annie learn the dangerous habit of watching Netflix instead of doing their homework.

"Laundry at Lunchtime"

A busy day for Annie and Jack leaves only lunchtime to do their laundry.

"Taco Bell on Tuesday"

Jack and Annie discover the immense power of a Crunchwrap at 1 AM.

“(Amazon) Prime after Nine”

After Jack and Annie buy an Amazon Prime membership, things get out of hand when they read that two-day shipping is free.

“Broke before Bedtime”

Jack and Annie find out how quickly money can be spent buying things from Taco Bell and Amazon.

“Thankful for Thursday”

Jack and Annie used to think that Friday and Saturday were the best nights to go out with friends and have fun. College has introduced them to the official start of the weekend: Thursday night.

"Tremendous Tons of T-Shirts"

After their first semester of college, Jack and Annie reminisce on the fact that their university has provided them with tons and tons of free t-shirts.

"Sinus Infections in the Springtime"

As their second semester rolls around and they arrive back to campus after Christmas break, Jack and Annie immediately get sinus infections after jumping back into the large pool of college germs.

"Energy Drinks in the Early Morning"

As finals approach, Jack and Annie take to energy drinks to get some extra energy to study.

Things I Am Actually Going To Do This Semester

Or at least try to do.

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.

Or at least try to do.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

2. I will look decent for class.

3. I will go to the gym more.

4. I will go to the library and study more.

5. I will meet new people.

For those long nights that turn into mornings when the struggle is real.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

2. Disappointed you let it get this bad

3. Distracted: When a 10-Minute Break Becomes an Hour

4. When the Yearning for Sleep Sneaks Up

5. In the words of Lorelai Gilmore "Coffee, Coffee, Coffee"

Oh, so done.

You need sleep, but also have 13 things due in the span of 4 days.

1. When it's December 1 and you have seven things due, three exams, and haven't slept in three days.

2. So you stress.

3. And cry.

4. Then call your mom to cry some more.

5. After the pep talk, you feel determined to get everything done.

6. But, now you're tired.

7. And really hungry.

8. Suddenly, it's 2 a.m. and you have only written three sentences and your paper is due in the morning.

9. You've made it to Friday... somehow.

10. Then Sunday hits and you find yourself back at the Lib.

11. So you cry some more.

12. But, you fight through the tears to get everything done because you're determined.

13. In the end, you feel on top of the world because you made it through the last week of class alive.

14. But, now it's finals week so good luck.
