As a new school year approaches, we anticipate how good or crazy the year might be. Sometimes, we're excited, and other times, we are terrified for what's to come. Regardless, there has to be some pros with the cons of starting another year of college.

Pros:

1. My best friend is back in town!

My rock, my stable voice, my best friend. I miss her so much! I feel lost without her. I cannot wait for wing night dates, sleepovers and laundry parties.

2. The sooner it starts, the sooner it's over.

Let's start another year in the books so I can enjoy all the breaks. Fall break. Thanksgiving break. Winter break. I'm already counting down to the next break and vacation.

3. A new internship is on the horizon.

I am so excited to be working towards a dream. This next internship at the VA hospital is exactly what I want. Gaining some new experience is exactly what I need before graduation.

4. The start of school means the start of the last tour.

As my last year, I'm excited for the last cram sessions, last first day of school, last home games and last homemade costumes for bar hopping.

5. Freedom from you family.

Yes, you love them dearly, but we all need our breaks. Going back to campus means back to your peers. The less rules, the better!

6. Going back to your home away from home.

College can be another family. At least for me, it's a group of friends like no other!

7. Learning something new for the fun of it.

If you happen to be one of the lucky few who actually learns something in college, then you appreciate that your student debt went to some beneficial knowledge.

Cons:

1. Homework, homework and more homework.

Homework is an essential part of school, but who wants to do it? Absolutely no one!

2. The bars are crowded again!

Remember when bars weren't crowded in a college town? No? Yeah you're right haha!

3. Procrastination turns into late night cram sessions.

Don't lie, we have all been there before! You don't want to study. You're just going to wing it. Night before you think, nope I really should study!

4. Paying for books is a horrific thought!

Hundreds of dollars later.

5. Dining hall food for the kill.

Sorry, but it's not mom's home cooking. The dining hall offers boiled hot dogs and pizza that's been sitting out for hours. Yeah, no thanks!

6. New classes. New professors.

How hard is this gen ed going to be? Wait. I have the toughest professor in the major? Grrreat.

7. You wait anxiously for your loan to disperse.

You're a broke a$$ college student who owes rent or needs to buy books. You're waiting around for some money like waiting for rain in a drought.
