When you just don't know what to do anymore.

The End Of The Semester As Told By 'Parks And Recreation'
IndieWire

The end of the semester is coming up and that means reading days and late nights of cramming are on the horizon. Even though everyone wants to go home, we have to tough it out for one more week and then we're free. Luckily, "Parks and Recreation" knows what we are going through during that last week of the semester.

1. Going out before exams begin.

When your friends force you to go out because it's the last weekend, but you have an 8 a.m. class the next morning.

2. Trying to remember all of the information that you learned.

When it's so hard to know everything from one semester, but you try everything you can.

3. When studying becomes too much.

We all need a break at some point.

4. Dealing with the insane amount of work.

When you give up being a responsible adult because the work load grows by 100 percent.

5. Doing work is no longer appealing.

When you want your professor to say "great work" or "amazing job," but you don't want to put in the effort to get there.

6. Thoughts after an exam.

All of a sudden, you've finished most of your exams.

7. Thoughts during an exam.


We've all had an exam that we didn't realize how unprepared we were for it.

8. Keeping strong during finals week.


When you literally just can't study anymore, but you have to remind yourself that you are strong.

9. Planning out alternative options.

Options include: going back to sleep, going to class, studying or take the L.

10. Giving yourself motivation.

Sometimes you just have to give yourself that pep talk.

11. You start becoming jealous of the ones who aren't studying.

You even envy animals too much because they don't have to go through college.

12. You wish you were a kid again.

Finally, this realization will hit you harder than a train.

The Daily Struggles of Being a College Commuter

It's not all morning coffees and singing along to the radio.

The Daily Struggles of Being a College Commuter
morethanwheels

I've been in college for four years now. I spent half my time as a commuter and half as a resident so I've experienced both sides of the housing spectrum. One thing I've learned comparing the two is that my struggles as a commuter far outweigh anything I went through while living on campus. Commuters have to deal with the problems school brings along with a slew of other issues; I've filled up my gas tank in the worst kind of weather conditions and napped in random places in public more times than I'm proud to say of. This is a list of some of the most challenging aspects of being a commuter.
