My Name Is Rage

I am rage. I bring out the true monster within you.

I am rage.

I am violent, and typically uncontrollable.

I bring out the evil in you, the inner disgust you hide within the secure persona of others you may be capable to uphold.

I force you say things you will regret within hours. But you cannot seem to figure out where I exactly come from. How can you possibly control me?

I only appear when you do not get your way, or something was not in your favor. However, I can settle in your throat, and threaten to appear once more within your stressful day by snapping at anyone who burdens you.

And most importantly, I lack sympathy. I do not care to hurt anyone, or ruin relationships. I can control you, easily. And the best part is many consider rage to be a normal emotion, because it is easier to avoid such enraging emotions rather than discovering an inner peace.

My craving for violence upon others and myself varies. It can submerge from wanting to be the one empowered, or as a punishment inflicted towards others using verbal or physical actions. But you are numb of course. You cannot feel the pain of your fingers punching a wall or the biting of your tongue. So how can you possibly know you are hurting others?

I am a monster in the purest form, and I hide within everyone.

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.

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.
