Ah, mid-semester. A time for tears, zero brain activity, and procrastination galore. We all know the feeling, in fact, most of us are experiencing it right now. College is hard, there's no denying it. But we somehow make it though, semester after semester. As a sophomore in college, I have reached the realization that Mid-Semester Slump is a very real and very dangerous epidemic. It's a soul-sucking monster that always comes back to rear its ugly head. The excitement of being back at college for another year is long gone and all that eagerness has warn off. The weather sucks, we're swimming in assignments, and we have no money. Instead of going out and having care-free fun like we did at the beginning of the semester, we cocoon ourselves into comforter burritos on our twin XL beds and watch "Grey's Anatomy" for five straight hours. 'Cause that solves all our problems, right? The Mid-Semester Slump is a bitch, but of course, no one can explain that better than Michael Scott.
