They're all on the road.

Coming from an island where laws exist but they do not apply in the minds of the natives, has got me thinking about all the reckless/nerve racking drivers we encounter each day. Keeping in mind this, not only applies where I live, but everywhere. For example we have:

1. The NASCAR drivers

This are the ones that think they are on a NASCAR race and go over the speed limit. Personally, I don't get bothered by them unless they honk at me to hurry up or almost get involved in an accident with me.

2. The snails on the road.

This are the ones that go to slow, to be precise, below the speed limit by too much. It increases the chances of traffic jam. It makes me want to scream and cry. Honestly, it makes me want to crash into them and make them speed up. For those who like to drive slowly, there are times where people are in a little hurry, which means they don't have time to be part of a procession.

3. The ones that have a signal light but do not use it.

Dear drivers on the road, your car has a signal light for a reason. If you want to change lanes, put em’ to use. This right here, is the reason why most of the dumbest accidents occur.

4. The ones that leave on the signal light.

I kind of feel like people do this to troll other drivers. We know you may forget to turn off the signal light but come on, you've been driving with the signal light on for 10 min, change lanes already or turn it off. It bothers many people that you leave it on.

5. The ones that don't respect the red light.

Yep, there is a red light. I know sometimes we can be on a hurry but, that's no reason to cause an accident that you didn't meant. Let's take it back to pre school, green means go, yellow means caution, start slowing down because the red light is coming and red light means stop. So STOP if there is a red light. Simple.

6. The distracted ones.

The ones that text while driving, or put makeup on while driving or they just pay attention to the GPS instead of hearing it talk or maybe they are just eating. who knows?

7. The ones that don't maintain a distance.

Why do some people need to be so close to the other car? Being that close doesn't make you, at all, go faster. Almost bumping into the car in front won't get you any further either.

8. The ones that sing while driving.

This one is self explained.

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. It's the worst time of the year, but the best because after finals, you get to not think about classes for a month and catch up on all the sleep you lost throughout the semester. 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.

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.

I know every college student has daily thoughts throughout their day. Whether you're walking on campus or attending class, we always have thoughts running a mile a minute through our heads. We may be wondering why we even showed up to class because we'd rather be sleeping, or when the professor announces that we have a test and you have an immediate panic attack.
