12 Stages Of Spring Semester, Explained Perfectly By Michael Scott

Spring semester is rough. You come back from a month off with no responsibilities and you are thrown back into the college world. Here are some of the experiences I think we can all relate to, shown by the one and only, Michael Scott.

1. When you get back to college and see all your besties that you haven't seen in a month

Its been too long and I'm just thankful I don't have to deal with my parents thinking I'm crazy for wanting Taco Bell at 2 a.m.

2. That syllabus week feeling

The first day of classes is hell on earth because you need to go to every class to find out the attendance policies and it's just no fun.

3. When your professor goes over the syllabus in five minutes and immediately starts the powerpoint

No. I did not sign up for this. I mean technically I did. Did no one tell this man about syllabus week?

4. It's two weeks into the semester and you realize you sat beside the kid that never stops talking, but it's too late to move because at this point you'll be stealing someone's unassigned assigned seat...

Sometimes I wonder how it is possible for one person to talk so much.

5. When someone sits in your unassigned assigned seat

This means war. No one's seat is safe anymore because you stole my seat now I have to steal someone else's and now 50% of the class is seatless and annoyed.

6. When you have a test on chapters 1-6 but you've only had three class days

I'm not sure if we were supposed to be doing some reading on our own time, but I thought we were in chapter two, so I'll be awake for the next 48 hours straight.

7. When someone shames you for taking too many naps

What is so wrong with being well rested? I just need to relax when I have the time.

8. After studying for 10 hours and feeling more lost than you were before

All-nighters can end one of two ways: feeling like you have mastered an entire semester course in one night, or realizing that you may have read the same three pages of your textbook the whole night.

9. When someone walks out of the test saying they "definitely made an A"

Don't be THAT guy.

10. When you're sucking up to your professor just in case you need those extra bonus points at the end of the semester

Be this guy. You never know when you're going to need extra-credit or a point here and there.

11. When you cook a full meal without burning or ruining some part of it

This is the pinnacle of adulthood. Fall semester you fumbled through eating ramen and microwaved food, but now it's time to be an adult and eat chicken and rice that didn't come pre-packaged.

12. When you realize you're going to make it through the semester

College is rough. It can get you down, but always remember that at the end of this hellish semester you'll be rewarded with summer break.

Keep on pushing through everyone.

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.
