Your Real Thoughts During Halloween

Thoughts that occur while preparing for and encountering the longest weekend of the school year.

Ah, the weekend every student at Michigan State University looks forward to, HALLOWEEN! Five straight days of dressing up, partying, and having no excuse other than it's Halloween, and you earned your right to party the day you got admitted into this school.

Five days of nonstop parting is a lot to handle for a twenty-year-old who is trying to cram for midterms, make money, and stay physically healthy. What is really going through your head the few days leading up to the craziest weekend of the school year?

1. "I have an exam Friday morning, should I REALLY go out on Thursday?"

While we know that this is a common question when midterms and Halloween finally meet each other, the answer is always yes. We all know you said yes.

2. "What kind of costume can I throw together using only things I already own?"

None of us have any money to spend on a real costume. So yes, you should throw on a tie die shirt and be a hippy for the fourth year in a row.

3. "Do I look TOO slutty? Or not slutty enough?"

We all know what Halloween REALLY means to most of you-- a weekend to wear the bare minimum and not one person can judge you for it. No shoes? Nice. No pants? Even better.

4. "I really wasn't the first one to think about being Harley Quinn this year."

Just admit it.

5. "How far can I take this weekend without ending up in jail or the hospital?"

We all strategically plan out our weekend to get as much partying in as we can in a short amount of time. Can our livers really handle what we think they can?

6. "Why is the man from the purge in my Snapchat story?"

7. "Next year I will be more creative with my costumes, I have already started a list."

Do not lie to yourself, you will be a hippy again.

8. "The line at Conrad's is exceptionally long tonight."

It's Halloween, TREAT YO SELF!

9. Wakes up on November 1st "I am never going out again."

THAT IS A LIE. We will see you at Rama this Thursday.

AND lastly....

10. "I am slightly relieved Halloween Weekend is over."

None of us want to admit it but, aren't we all happy it's over and we made it through alive??

Alright Spartans, time to pick up the slack, ace those midterms, and prove to your parents that you do far more at this B1G University than pretend you're a cat for a night, even if you're the sexiest cat in East Lansing.

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.

December... it's full of finals, due dates, Mariah Carey, and the holidays. It's the worst time of the year, but the best because after finals, you get to not think about classes for a month and catch up on all the sleep you lost throughout the semester. But what's worse than finals week is the last week of classes, when all the due dates you've put off can no longer be put off anymore.

Thanksgiving break is over and Christmas is just around the corner and that means, for most college students, one hellish thing — finals week. It's the one time of year in which the library becomes over populated and mental breakdowns are most frequent. There is no way to avoid it or a cure for the pain that it brings. All we can do is hunker down with our books, order some Dominos, and pray that it will all be over soon. Luckily, we are not alone in this suffering. To prove it, here are just a few of the many deranged thoughts that go through a college student's mind during finals week.

I know every college student has daily thoughts throughout their day. Whether you're walking on campus or attending class, we always have thoughts running a mile a minute through our heads. We may be wondering why we even showed up to class because we'd rather be sleeping, or when the professor announces that we have a test and you have an immediate panic attack.
