What, like it's Hard

Midterms As Told By A College Senior
Cassidy H Cunnyngham

If you're found yourself in weeks 7 or 8 of college, you know exactly what time it is; MIDTERMS. Bless your heart, we all feel you.

It's the time of the year that we all can agree that all of our teachers have ganged up to make sure we have 3 exams that are all worth like 300 points and clearly make up like 100% of your grade and if you don't pass, you'll surely fail.

It doesn't really matter what year you are in college, midterms SUCKKK. Its the time that coffee flies off the shelves of Hyvee, WalMart, and Starbuck. All the orders are like crazy such as a Venti Double Shot iced hazelnut drink with an extra shot of espresso (bringing it to six shots) and two shots of sweeter. SAY WHAT?

People get rundown and sick, people are coughing, noses are running, and everyone has permanent bags that are NOT designer under their eyes, #GROSS.

Trust me, I've got *ALL* the experience by my senior year of college.

1. Coffee consists of espresso and espresso


2. People are like scary Halloween zombies lacking sleep and crazy hair.


3. People haven't showered in weeks


4. Nor have they had a warm meal because #AintnobodyGotTimeForThat


5. Free food is like a gift from God himself


6. We have deleted our social media accounts because #BeingProductive


7. We might need some shots to match our shots of espresso


8. We haven't changed clothes all week, but who cares


9. Our gym memberships are getting cobwebs from all our "study time"


10. We might survive yet we might not survive but thank goodness for #PostMidtermCelebrations

5 Things To Do That Are Better Than Writing A Paper

Don't waste your time trying to write that paper when there are so many more interesting things you could be doing.

Writing a paper is never fun and is rarely rewarding. The writer's block, the page requirement, be specific, but don’t summarize, make sure you fixed any grammatical errors, did you even use spellcheck? and analyze, analyze, analyze.

Papers can be a major pain. They take up so much time and effort that by the end of the process you hate yourself and you hate the professor for making life so difficult. Questions of your existence start roaming in your mind. Am I even cut out for college if I can’t write a single paper? Am I even capable of taking care of myself if I lack the energy to open my laptop and start typing?

Who could be a better friend than your own sister?

sisters
Taylor Hooper

I can barely remember back when I was the only child. Most would say it’s because it is extremely difficult to remember things as a toddler but I would say it's because I was bored until my sister came along. My mother always says how important the "sister bond" is and with every year that passes I realize how right she is. Instead of writing a novel about all of the wonderful things there are about having a sister I decided to list a few of them instead.

It is the time of our lives that we are beginning to enter the adult world and most of us, if not all of us, have no idea what we are doing. It's like starting a video game, but skipping the tutorial. We're all just running around aimlessly hoping we accidentally do something right that moves us along the right path. Now that graduation has just happened, or is right around the corner for some of us, it's time to start thinking about how we are going to take care of ourselves once we are on our own.

If you’re anything like me, you love a good cup of coffee. My coffee always comes from Starbucks; I refuse to drink it from anywhere else. Over the years, it’s become one of my biggest addictions. So, if you are aware that you’re a Starbucks addict as well, or maybe you need to check to see if you’re an addict, here are seven ways to tell.

College involves a whirlwind of emotions, whether it’s from the stress of an assignment (or twenty), or from fighting with your roommate. It can be overwhelming at times and it’s important to take a step a back and calmly think things over. Maybe gain some perspective. The following aren’t foolproof tips and may not apply to you, but I was able to find success with them (hope you do too!)
