13 Struggles For Girls Who NEED Our Sleep and snooze the alarm 7 times

Class at 9am? No biggie. *sets alarm for 8:50am*

Where are my girls at? I'm talking about the ones who shamelessly need their seven hours of sleep at night to even think about getting out of bed on time the next morning. I am no doubt one of them, and over the years, I noticed patterns that seem to repeat themselves time and time again, despite my best efforts.

1. Anything before 10am is just too early.

"Hey, want to meet for breakfast?"

"Sure, what time?"

"8:30 in the caf?"

"Sorry, I can't..."

2. And when you get stuck with an early class, you make every effort to avoid it.

It's on these days that your roommate probably reminds you that you can't miss EVERY class before 10.

3. So you plan it out to the VERY last minute you can sleep in the morning.

Class at 9am? *sets alarm for 8:53*

4. But you still make sure you have enough time to run to Starbucks before you book it to class.

You know just how much time it takes the barista to pour your grande caramel iced coffee with room, with enough time to spare for you to add the cream and sugar (3 minutes 42 seconds to be exact).

5. When you come home you realize you have to get up earlier for your plans.

Everything is a farther trip than a 10 minute walk across campus.

6. On weekends its not unusual to sleep in WAY later than normal.

Sometimes to the point that your roommate wakes you up simply because it's almost noon.

7. But anyone who takes this risk may be asking for trouble.

I'm truly sorry for anything I said to you before noon.

8. You are known for moving plans back if they are made too early in the morning.

"Hey, can we push that start time back to 11?"

9. You're one of the first ones to leave an event because you want to shower and get to bed.

"Hey, I'll see y'all tomorrow!"

10. Sometimes you'd drop *not so subtle* hints to your roommate to ask her guests to leave.

*Crawls under the covers and turns your back to the room*

11. You'll wake up and check your phone to see all the conversations you missed from the night before.

32 texts and 24 snapchats later...

12. Your'e a self-proclaimed power napper

Never underestimate the power of a midday nap

13. You're known as the "not a morning person" person in your friend group

And that's PERFECTLY OKAY.

5 Things To Do That Are Better Than Writing A Paper

Don't waste your time trying to write that paper when there are so many more interesting things you could be doing.

Writing a paper is never fun and is rarely rewarding. The writer's block, the page requirement, be specific, but don’t summarize, make sure you fixed any grammatical errors, did you even use spellcheck? and analyze, analyze, analyze.

Papers can be a major pain. They take up so much time and effort that by the end of the process you hate yourself and you hate the professor for making life so difficult. Questions of your existence start roaming in your mind. Am I even cut out for college if I can’t write a single paper? Am I even capable of taking care of myself if I lack the energy to open my laptop and start typing?

sisters

I can barely remember back when I was the only child. Most would say it’s because it is extremely difficult to remember things as a toddler but I would say it's because I was bored until my sister came along. My mother always says how important the "sister bond" is and with every year that passes I realize how right she is. Instead of writing a novel about all of the wonderful things there are about having a sister I decided to list a few of them instead.

It is the time of our lives that we are beginning to enter the adult world and most of us, if not all of us, have no idea what we are doing. It's like starting a video game, but skipping the tutorial. We're all just running around aimlessly hoping we accidentally do something right that moves us along the right path. Now that graduation has just happened, or is right around the corner for some of us, it's time to start thinking about how we are going to take care of ourselves once we are on our own.
