The Second Semester Struggle As Told By Lucille Bluth
Campus Riot

It's right around this time of year that things might be getting rough for some of us. We haven't seen the sun anymore, we lost what little patience we had for studying around the beginning of February, and you may feel like your social life has slipped into a rut. You might be feeling like a bit of a grouch, or maybe even worse, like a bit of a Lucille Bluth, a character who is the very epitome of the cynical apathy that the months of January through March bring out in all of us.

1. When your professor asks you about the reading you've long since been blowing off.

2. Remembering that spring break is right around the corner.

3. And then also realizing that your college years (aka the prime of your life) are slipping away and before you know it you're gonna be a real adult in the real world.

4. Dancing at parties and forgetting to care if you look cool or more like an ostrich having a seizure.

5. Then going to class the next morning like an ostrich that got run over by a car because daily showers are for people who care.

6. The look you give your parents when they ask you what you're doing for the summer in a tone that suggests you're not supposed to spend it with your good friends, Netflix and ice cream.

7. Insisting to your friends that you didn't cheat on your business ethics test.

8. Completely losing the motivation to go to the dining hall for food and settling for a subpar meal of PB&J in bed.

9. When your friend makes the absurd suggestion that you should try to get your lives together and maybe go to the library instead of starting a third hour of "The Bachelor."

10. Scoffing at your mom's suggestion that it's time to scale back on going out.

11. Actually realizing that your mom was right and you hate people so it's time to become a hermit.

12. Getting bored enough in a week to forget about being a hermit.

13. Watching people, who aren't smart enough to figure out that nothing really matters anymore, stress about school and work and their social lives.

Summer: a time (usually) free from school work and a time to relax with your friends and family. Maybe you go on a vacation or maybe you work all summer, but the time off really does help. When you're in college you become super close with so many people it's hard to think that you won't see many of them for three months. But, then you get that text saying, "Hey, clear your schedule next weekend, I'm coming up" and you begin to flip out. Here are the emotions you go through as your best friend makes her trip to your house.

Winter break is over, we're all back at our respective colleges, and the first week of classes is underway. This is a little bit how that week tends to go.

The professor starts to go over something more than the syllabus

You get homework assigned on the first day of class

There are multiple group projects on the syllabus

You learn attendance is mandatory and will be taken every class

Professor starts chatting about their personal life and what inspired them to teach this class

Participation is mandatory and you have to play "icebreaker games"

Everybody is going out because its 'syllabus week' but you're laying in bed watching Grey's Anatomy

Looking outside anytime past 8 PM every night of this week

Nobody actually has any idea what's happening this entire week

Syllabus week is over and you realize you actually have to try now...or not

Now it's time to get back into the REAL swing of things. Second semester is really here and we all have to deal with it.

Whether you specialized in ringing people up or preparing the food, if you worked at Panera Bread it holds a special place in your heart. Here are some signs that you worked at Panera in high school.

1. You own so many pairs of khaki pants you don’t even know what to do with them

Definitely the worst part about working at Panera was the uniform and having someone cute come in. Please don’t look at me in my hat.

7 Ways to Make Your Language More Transgender and Nonbinary Inclusive

With more people becoming aware of transgender and non-binary people, there have been a lot of questions circulating online and elsewhere about how to be more inclusive. Language is very important in making a space safer for trans and non-binary individuals. With language, there is an established and built-in measure of whether a place could be safe or unsafe. If the wrong language is used, the place is unsafe and shows a lack of education on trans and non-binary issues. With the right language and education, there can be more safe spaces for trans and non-binary people to exist without feeling the need to hide their identities or feel threatened for merely existing.
