When spring break comes to a close, every college student is hopeful that summer time is right around the corner. A time with relaxation and no school work in sight. However, before we can get there we are bombarded by assignments, exams and papers that seem to overwhelm us... coincidentally all at the same time. The low motivation level does not help with the excessive amounts of work. Here is how college students feel getting through the spring semester told by the characters in 'This Is Us'.

1. All of the assignments that are due in the same week

After spring break, endless amounts of homework and papers are thrown your way. Every time you think you have completed one assignment, another one is due.

2. Feeling stressed out

As each week passes by you think that it will get easier but then somehow you end up more stressed than before.

3. Trying to pretend you're still sane

When people ask how you are and you have act like you have it all together. In reality, you have 3 tests, 2 papers and are running on 3 hours of sleep.

4. Tests

Your professors suddenly want to have a test every other week on the increasingly difficult material, and all of your professors seem to be on the same page.

5. Lack of sleep

There is not enough time in the day to accomplish all of your work, so you have to fight the urge to sleep until infinity and do more work. Yay.

6. Getting anxiety about your GPA

Getting tests back and trying to think of creative ways to raise your GPA.

7. Easter Break

If you go to a Catholic University, Easter Break is the light at the end of the tunnel.

8. Procrastination taking over

You suddenly find yourself organizing files on your computer instead of facing the pounds of work you're put off.

9. Crying becomes your new hobby

Half the time you don't even know why you're crying, it just feels like the correct response.

10. Don't worry! Were almost done!

Keep the faith college students! Before we know it, we will make it to the promise land that is summertime.

I'm serious

There are tons of unisex names that are popular: Taylor, Alex, Bailey, etc. There are also numerous names that are used for both sexes, but they’re not seen as “unisex” yet. People are slowly becoming accustomed to the dual use of these names, but for the most part, in their minds they associate certain names with certain sexes. And that leaves those of us with these names in many awkward situations.

I'm an anthropology major, and I love every minute of it. I couldn't tell you why, but I guess there's just something about studying different lifestyles that absolutely fascinates me. But anthropology majors definitely have our weird sides, especially when you go to a school that is filled with mostly Business and Bio majors. But us weirdos definitely have a lot in common, specifically these 16 things.

Everyone has insecurities, that's just a fact. You didn't ask to be born this way. You didn't ask to inherit the one trait no one else in your family has. And you definitely didn't ask to be this ghostly white. But as soon as you've learned to live with it for a while (less wrinkles later on in life, right? right???) someone has to ruin it for you. They have to flaunt they're perfectly tanned body from Spring Break and hold their sun-kissed skin against yours. But I've had enough... here are the things that perpetually pale individuals are tired of hearing.
