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

In This Article:

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.

In case you're unaware, "resting bitch face" is the term used to describe when a person's natural, expressionless face makes it look like they are mad at the world. Whether they are walking down the street or simply spacing out thinking about what to eat for dinner, it's very easy for others to assume that this person is either upset or mad at them. Because of this, those of us with Resting Bitch Face (RBF), and especially us women, have all experienced many of the same situations and conversations, including:

We've all had a crush before. Whether it leads to something or nothing, the process has all been the same. The awkward feelings, the stalking, and the stress of trying to keep this huge secret. The feeling of becoming a total spazz is something that cannot be avoided, and the most spazzy family that can relate to this feeling is the Belcher's.

Everybody hurts sometimes.

At the tender age of 18, we are bestowed with the title of “adult.” For 17 years, we live under the rules and guidelines of our parents, school, and government, and to stray from any of those rules or guidelines marks us as a rebel. At 18, though, we must choose which college we want to go to or what career we want. We are allowed and encouraged to vote. We can buy lottery tickets and cigarettes. We can drop out of school, leave our household, and do other "adult" things. At 18, we start down a path of thinking for ourselves, when for the entirety of our lives other institutions have been mandated to think and do for us.

Creating your schedule for the upcoming semester can be an exciting process. You have the control to decide if you want to have class two-days a week or five-days a week. You get to check things off of your requirement checklist. It's an opportunity for a fresh start with new classes (which you tell yourself you'll never skip.) This process, which always starts out so optimistic, can get frustrating really quickly. Here are 25 thoughts you have when registering for classes.

10 Thoughts Of A 5th Year Senior

What about those of us who don't do it all in four years?

"College will be the best four years of your life" is a phrase that we have all heard growing up. College is painted as a magical place to us while we are in high school. A place you go to learn, meet your best friends and probably have the time of your life while all of this is going down. Four whirlwind years, where everything that you've known changes and you start to learn what it means to live on your own, have a job, etc. But what about those of us who don't do this all in four years? Major changes, hard courses, switching schools, career paths changing, these are just a handful of factors that could extend your four years to five, six or seven. There is nothing wrong with taking extra time to graduate, but returning as a fifth-year is a little different. Most of your best friends have most likely graduated and moved and while you may be one of the oldest undergraduates on campus, you might feel as awkward as a freshmen. A world that became home and comfortable to you is still there but it's slightly different than you've known it to be and you have to find a groove to fall into. These are thoughts you'll have as you look ahead to returning to your college campus, with a victory lap planned.
