In honor of surviving the first full week of classes this semester, and the heartbreaking death of the beloved Alan Rickman, here is the first week of classes, as told by the "Harry Potter" series.

1. When you finally see your friends for the first time since last semester.

2. When someone doesn't say "thank you" for holding the door open.

3. When you see couples PDAing way too hard on the way to class.

4. When you actually took the time to do your hair and the wind completely messes it up.

5. When you have back-to-back classes on the opposite ends of campus.

6. When going over course objectives on the syllabus.


7. When you prepare to gracefully introduce yourself, but end up messing it up.

8. When your teacher decides to start teaching on the first day of class.

9. And you pretend to laugh at all of your teacher's jokes in the effort to get on their good side.

10. When you can already tell who are going to be the most annoying people in your class.

11. When your professor lets you out 20 minutes early.

12. When you embarrass yourself in front of your crush for the first time in the semester.

13. When your professor assigns six chapters to read for the next class.

14. And when you attempt to do the reading but have no idea what's going on.

15. When you finally get to eat dinner after your 5 p.m. class.

16. And when you finally get to go out after a long week (because let's face it, syllabus week is just a myth).

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.

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.
