It is the last week of October, soon to be November. The semester ends exactly in a month or so, we only have a couple of weeks left. These are some relatable struggles every college student goes through when we reach "that time of the semester".
Sleep deprived
Giphy"You look like a crackhead" a friend replied to me in response of my daily Snapchat streaks. This is the time of the semester where you can no longer hide that you are sleep deprived, instead you embrace it. #Teamnosleep is catching up to you.
Loss of motivation
GiphyDo you find yourself scrolling through Instagram while a show plays out loud from your TV, knowing that you have piles of assignments to conquer? Yup, same. It's that time of the semester where you lose motivation, this loss later becomes procrastination. Watch out... deadliness in the rearview mirror will eventually catch up to you.
Grades aren't adding up
GiphyHave you ever pulled an all nighter and ended up receiving the worst grade on the exam either way? "How did my A- turn into a D in a blink of an eye?
Try to relearn a whole semester
GiphyCurrently taking a fundamentals to physical science class, just discovered I'm actually taking a physics class and can't mentally comprehend math and science combined... trying to relearn a whole semester because I still don't get it.
Skipping class to catch up with other class
GiphyThis is a dangerous game, becomes like a drug then an addiction. You are suddenly skipping classes to catch up with other classes.
Breaking out
GiphyAloe Vera isn't adding up anymore. Pimples begin to randomly appear everywhere, I mean everywhere...
Crying breaks
GiphyMental breakdowns are a common ground. You tell yourself you'll be okay after a crying break. You cry it out and continue the unmotivated grind.
Is Withdrawing an option?
GiphyWithdrawing is in fact a better option than failing, but you got this!
Accidentally skipping class
GiphyMaybe your alarm didn't go off, but you unintentionally end up skipping class...
Balanced diet? Healthy life? Never heard of her
GiphyAlthough you swore this was going to be your time to reach your body goals and achieve a healthy lifestyle... it's okay it's that time of the semester.
Just a reminder that you can get through these "time of the semester" stages, you are a badass and don't stop the grind!
