I Am Ready To Go Back To School

It is only the 3rd week of summer, and I am ready to go back to school.

I Am Ready To Go Back To School
Blakeley Addis

I love summer and I love my family.

But my family is driving me crazy.

Do not get me wrong, I love my family. Like seriously love them. And I also know that this is a stressful summer for them because we are moving, but still, I think I am going to go crazy.

It might just be because I have not really had anyone telling me what I can or can not do all school year and now I do, or it could just mean I need space.

Going to school is quite terrifying, but coming back home is scary too. Coming home I was excited for the comforts of home, like my parents, a big shower, and a real kitchen. But I did not prepare myself for how the dynamic of the household has changed since I left for school.

Things around the house are the same in a lot of ways, but also different. Like my little sister gets to do way more than I ever did at her age. (I am not jealous or anything, just does not seem very fair(; ).

Although I love home and the comforts that come with it, I am ready to go back to school.

When I say "go back to school", I really mean just go back to the city I go to school in. I do not really want to go back to having class every day, or anything like that. I would like to go back to the city I fell in love with and be able to spend time with the amazing new friends I made, just exploring the city or laying out on the beach each day.

However, while I am with my family I intend on enjoying every second I get to spend with them, even if they drive me crazy half the time.

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?

10 Reasons Why Sisters Are The Best

sisters

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.

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!)
