Instagram // @hannah_feeney_

It's at that point in your study abroad experience where we're missing your loved ones a little extra than normal. In our defense, we've been flying solo in a different country for 3 months...props to us! Below are 15 texts I (and probably you) are guilty of sending to your family, friends, significant other, etc:

1. "I miss you."

2. "What time is it there?"

3. "I have major FOMO."

4. "Send pictures of insert pet's name NOW."

5. "I wish you were here."

6. "X days until I'm home!"

7. "When I get back I can't wait to go to insert restaurant's name."

8. "I have never been this broke."

9. "I am CLEARLY super cultured now."

10. "Buttttt I do miss having English be the given language."

11. "Give me the scoop/updates on life in America."

12. "Here are pictures from place you just traveled to."

13. "If you were here, you would LOVE this."

14. "The time difference is killing me."

15. "I love you so much."

5 Things To Do That Are Better Than Writing A Paper

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?

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.
