Struggles of a College Student

Second Semester As Told By Family Guy

College is really tough. First semester is hard enough because you've been off for three months for the summer, but second semester is definitely harder. We had only one month off of school, which is basically a tease. Right when you get used to waking up late and the freedom of having no classes or homework, it's time to go back to school. Waking up at 8 AM after a month off for Christmas break really isn't my cup of tea. It was hard enough leaving my family and friends back home, and now I have to actually wake up before noon to attend classes and do homework. Here is my perspective of second semester as told by Family Guy.

1. Although you missed all of your friends, you really aren't ready to wake up at 8 AM for a full day of classes.

So instead, you sit in bed contemplating if school is really worth it.


2. You go to your first day of class, which is "Syllabus Day."

When you find out that your professor doesn't take attendance.


3. But then your professor says there will be a group project and you don't get to pick your partner.


4. But (luckily) you get partnered with your best friend to complete the project anyways.


5. Coffee

Before you begin talking about any project, homework, or anything else for that matter, you must have your (second) daily dose of coffee.

6. Not even coffee can get you through lecture classes

Those are the absolute worst.

7. You know what sucks more than lecture classes? Mondays.


8. And if there's an exam on a Monday morning, you can forget studying.

But by some miracle you got an A.


9. If someone reminds the teacher about collecting homework, you immediately hate them


10. Being in college also means being in debt

So, checking your credit card statement is always disappointing.

11. Food

But let's be honest, half your money went to buying food. So, forget the freshman 15. It's more like the junior 30.


12. Since you've gained some weight in college, you try and get your daily exercise in before bed



13. When your professor tells you there is no study guide for the cumulative final


14. Then you reminisce about when you were a kid who so desperately wanted to grow up

And now you're like, "What was I thinking?"

Although college is tough and requires hard work, I've definitely met some amazing people and wouldn't change it for anything. Despite all of the studying, college is fun. I mean, college is supposed to be the best times of your life! So, enjoy it. And maybe you should try studying for those exams next time. Or not. Either one.

It's officially December. There is less than a month of 2024, 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."

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…

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