Ten Thoughts You Have When It's Above 60 Degrees in February.

This Friday, something magical happened. I woke up and rolled over to open my window and what did I see? Sunshine, and lots of it. This isn't abnormal for a typical Saint Louis late winter day. I shrugged and reacher over to check my phone, as I usually do, and to check the weather. Imagine my shock and surprise when I discover that at 9:00 in the morning on February 19th, 2016, in Saint Louis Missouri, it was 63 degrees outside. 63 degrees. I couldn't believe it. So I threw on a T-shirt and shorts, for the first time in ages, and headed out to class. As I spend my day in shock and awe of this beautiful weather, these are the ten thoughts that went through my head.

1. Wow. Is that really what it feels like to not be wearing pants outside? I don't remember.

2. I CAN ACTUALLY FEEL THE SUN'S WARMTH.

3. *sitting in class* Literally no one cares it's 70 degrees out.

4. Everyone looks so happy!

5. Snapchat says it's 78 this is a miracle.

6. Wow I forgot how short Chubbies actually are.

7. People are wearing open toed shoes?

8. I think literally every student that attends this institution is outside right now.

9. *posts eight Snapchat stories with the temperature filter*

10. I think I'm sunburnt.

So happy spring fever to the Midwest. Too bad it's supposed to snow on Wednesday.

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.

December... it's full of finals, due dates, Mariah Carey, and the holidays.

But what's worse than finals week is the last week of classes, when all the due dates you've put off can no longer be put off anymore.
