12 Reasons I'm Already Ready To Go Back To School
Amira Totah

So don't get me wrong, I love a good break from classes but things do start to get boring by week two. I'm in desperate need of getting my college life back together before I lose my mind... And here's why.

1. I need to get back into a set routine

I'm the kind of person who enjoys having a set schedule for my everyday life so when I get thrown off of my routine... It stresses me out, to say the least.

2. I miss my college friends 

It sucks not seeing people you love to be around! Especially when you're used to being just down the hall from them.

3. Living at home is... a little stressful

I love my family so much but once you move out, going back tends to be stressful.

4. Low-key excited for the classes I'm taking this semester 

I love what I'm studying so classes are actually pretty fun and I get excited knowing I'm learning things that will help me in my career.

5. My relaxation has turned into boredom 

Being lazy and not having anything to do is nice at first until it turns into complete boredom and you're actually tired of sleeping and not having any plans.

6. I can start using my Dining Dollars again 

Broke college kids life saver. That is all.

7. I need to see my roommate

I miss my roommate so much. I always look forward to seeing her and talking about random things/ just feeling at home with her there... In need of a reunion.

8. I miss walking to class everyday 

Walking to class is almost therapeutic. You never know what you will see or overhear from other people around you. Also, I'm very much slacking on my daily step goal so this is something I need to catch up on.

9. I'm so close to graduating 

This is a love/ hate situation. I'm ready to graduate but at the same time I'm not so I want to spend as much time here while I can. (On the other hand, the sooner I get it over with, the sooner I graduate.)

10. I miss eating food at my sorority house 

We have breakfast, lunch and dinner... This one is also a love/ hate relationship.

11. I miss being in the comfort of my bedroom 

I love my room at home but because I can't bring all of my belongings with me, I always feel like I'm missing something. There is just something about my bedroom at college that is so peaceful and homey.

12. Independence 

Although my parents aren't strict on me, there is still a certain level of independence that feels taken away when you are at home. I love my parents but I enjoy doing things on my own so I'm ready to get my groove back.

Call me crazy but college has a lot of missable qualities and I cannot wait to be back.

Bucket List To Live In The Now

Find excitement in your life and start exploring wherever you are right here, right now.

mu bucket list

I was sitting at my cubicle, now that I am an adult, looking at the rain pouring down on the windowsill, bumming on life, wishing for the rain to just stop for a full day.

There are moments where we count down the hours until work is over and how many more days till the weekend, and this many weeks until something exciting. Or something like that? Well, I was bumming because my next day off from work is not until Memorial Day weekend, which is not until the end of May. And since this is my first year out of college being a “real person,” I am totally missing the winter, spring and summer breaks. I am sure all of us have felt this way even if just for a hot minute…

It's officially December. There is less than a month of 2023, and I still feel like yesterday was summer. Now comes the merriest time of the year, the Christmas season.

Everyone has been waiting for this time of year since mid-October (which is way too early, in my opinion) or before. It's a time of love, family, memory-making, and gift-giving. A lot of times when I ask friends and family what they want, I get a lot of "I don't know" or "I don't care."

If you go to or went to Kent State, then more than likely you have done or will do some of these things.

1. You’ve slipped and fallen on the ice at least once.

The winters at Kent are brutal, and while the heated sidewalks and some great snow boots are always a help, there’s no chance you won’t bust it on the ice at least once in your four plus years at school.

Christmas is literally so close. We can almost taste it. But there is just one thing standing between you and the big day: FINALS. It's not the studying, lack of sleep, last minute cram sessions or crappy food intake that is the worst... but the fact that you cannot focus because, well, CHRISTMAS. How do professors expect you to focus when Christmas is soooo soon. For all my fellow Christmas lovers out there, I feel your pain.
