8 Summer School Feels We Can Relate To, All Summer Long

Amanda Brennan

Between having full, maxed out semester schedules during the school year, the last thing us college students want to do is sign up to take more classes during the warm summer months that were made for fun, sun, and relaxation. But, if it means graduating in four years, I guess it's what has to happen. At least we can all struggle together and bond over the fact that we are all in this together.

"Why. Did. I. Sign. Up. For. This?"

Giphy

I guess it could be worse?

"It's better than taking it during the school year."

Giphy

Optimism...right?

"Well, at least I can use Google on the tests."

Giphy

Helping us get that A...right!?

"Ugh, I wish I had friends in this class."

Giphy

Thoughts such as, "I wonder what others thought of the test", or "how much did my peers write for number four?" could be easily answered if I could just text someone for help and advice!

"I wonder how much I can get done in one night..."

Giphy

It's fine, I'm fine, I can do homework, two quizzes, and a test before 11:59.

"Okay, if I do an hour now, some at work, I can come home and be done by midnight."

Giphy

Time management right...work, class, sleep, work, class, sleep...in no particular order…

"How many new coffee shops can I find?"

Giphy

Wait, when did that corner get a Starbucks? Don't we already have like 20 in this town?

"Can I watch Netflix and do homework at the same time?"

Giphy

Multi-tasking to the extreme!

You got this! Don't let anything get in your way...Google is there to help you get that A! Keep on top of deadlines and balance some fun into your crazy schedule too!

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.

Thanksgiving break is over and Christmas is just around the corner and that means, for most college students, one hellish thing — finals week. It's the one time of year in which the library becomes over populated and mental breakdowns are most frequent. There is no way to avoid it or a cure for the pain that it brings. All we can do is hunker down with our books, order some Dominos, and pray that it will all be over soon. Luckily, we are not alone in this suffering. To prove it, here are just a few of the many deranged thoughts that go through a college student's mind during finals week.
