10 Stages Students Go Through When Summer Is Almost Within Our Reach
Taylor Plate

So, school's just about done with. It's been a long, hard semester, and we all deserve the blessed summer break that is about to be presented unto us. Some of us may be going on vacation, some of us may be working, and some of us may be laying around on the couch for three months straight.

No matter how you are spending your summer break, all that matters is that it's coming. So, in honor of the impending gloriousness that is summer vacation, here are the 10 stages you go through when summer break is almost here.

1. Hopefulness.

'

You know that summer is just a few days away and you can probably make it.

2. Denial.

You start to feel like summer may never actually come; you're stuck in some kind of collegiate twilight zone.

3. Anger.

Although you've only been in school for 3 and a half months, you become infuriated that summer break hasn't arrived yet.

4. Fatigue.

You have three assignments and four tests left, and there is no way you can get any of it done. Where is summer!?

5. Despair.

You've completely given up on summer getting here. You'll just rot in your library chair. It's better for everyone this way.

6. Derangement.

If you hadn't already lost your mind, it's official now. You've gone off the deep end because there's no way you can take one more day of school.

7. Relaxation.

You've used up all your energy freaking out about summer not being here yet, so now all you can do is sit back and try not to think about it.

8. Anxiousness.

Summer is so close that you can practically taste it, and you can't take it for one more minute.

9. Sadness.

Even though you're psyched for summer, you realize that you're going to miss college.

10. Complete joy.

Noone is going to bring you down, because you made it!!!

It's officially December. There is less than a month of 2023, 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."

If you go to or went to Kent State, then more than likely you have done or will do some of these things.

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

The winters at Kent are brutal, and while the heated sidewalks and some great snow boots are always a help, there’s no chance you won’t bust it on the ice at least once in your four plus years at school.

Christmas is literally so close. We can almost taste it. But there is just one thing standing between you and the big day: FINALS. It's not the studying, lack of sleep, last minute cram sessions or crappy food intake that is the worst... but the fact that you cannot focus because, well, CHRISTMAS. How do professors expect you to focus when Christmas is soooo soon. For all my fellow Christmas lovers out there, I feel your pain.

One of the most dreaded places on campus is the library. Nothing awesome ever happens here. Usually, the only reason you're here is because you've procrastinated so long that the library is the only place you'll actually get stuff done. It gives you this feeling of sadness and impending doom. You have no idea how this is going to go or how long you'll be here, but you do know it is about to be the most excruciating experiences yet. But it has to get done, so you drag yourself to the lovely library.

With each new year comes new goals.

Deciding on a goal can be hard, unsure of what to change for this new year. A new goal for myself is to be happier and take care of myself more. I am a very driven person; so driven that I commit to a million and ten things.
