As the Summer is quickly coming to an end, college students are trying to get used to the idea that school is starting back very soon. This is where you're stuck in the middle of being so incredibly done with your hometown, but no quite ready to get back into reality. So here are the 10 stages that you feel when you realize that Summer is coming to an end.
1. Denial
Summer isn't really coming to an end is it?
2. Realization
Where did all the time go? You've not done half of the things you had planned to do- and now it's too late to do anything.
3. Organizing
Trying to find everything you've lost over the break and getting things ready to be packed up.
4. Despair
You haven't spoken to anyone from school for weeks now, you remember all the hard classes you signed up for and you suddenly realize how much of a struggle this is actually going to be.
5. Hope
Maybe there will be some freak weather that will postpone school from starting for a few extra weeks?
6. Expectation
You try to think positive about this upcoming semester, and have high expectations. Just keep telling yourself that everything is going to be just fine.
7. Procrastinating
You have many things to do to get ready for school but instead you kick back and relax because you can do that important stuff later.
8. Panic
Okay, you procrastinated too long and now you're screwed.
9. Pulling yourself together
You have no more time and you have to start getting your things together.
10. Acceptance
This is happening and school is starting no matter what. You've just got to accept it and keep going. Actually, if you admit it you've been suffering a bit of cabin fever and it's going to be good to get out again and see everyone.
