Finals Are Coming And I'm A Mess

I understand that it's like a month away, but it's coming and we need to be okay with that.

I keep coming up to the weeks where I have an article due and having absolutely nothing to write about. This literally happens to me biweekly, because I am a biweekly writer and not a weekly writer... so I should really be able to come up with something to write about but I quite honestly can never think of something to write about. Are there no things going on in my life? Have I just run out of things that I am able to write about any sort of given up? Or, am I just a little overwhelmed from classwork and now have nothing in my life that inspires me except for my coursework?

Yes. I wrote an article a few weeks ago about how I was stressed about registering for classes and I did that, but now there are other problems. We are coming to the end of the semester, everybody. It is coming way closer than we thought that it was, and I'm sorry to be the one to tell you that, but it's coming. Final projects are being announced. Final exams study guides are being created. The end of the semester is rearing on us everyone, and I feel like it's coming for me sooner than it's coming for anybody else.

This semester seems to have gone by faster than any of the other three semester's of college that I have been in and I can't explain it. It's going by faster, even though it feels like it's just begun and that I've never gotten into the swing of things with this semester and it's coming up to an end. Something about this semester was off, and I can't really explain it, but it wasn't in a bad way. It might be because I know that when this semester ends, I'll be halfway through my college career and that is a really weird thing to think about. Does anyone else feel the same way? Just me? Okay. I'll see you in two weeks.

5 Things To Do That Are Better Than Writing A Paper

Don't waste your time trying to write that paper when there are so many more interesting things you could be doing.

Writing a paper is never fun and is rarely rewarding. The writer's block, the page requirement, be specific, but don’t summarize, make sure you fixed any grammatical errors, did you even use spellcheck? and analyze, analyze, analyze.

Papers can be a major pain. They take up so much time and effort that by the end of the process you hate yourself and you hate the professor for making life so difficult. Questions of your existence start roaming in your mind. Am I even cut out for college if I can’t write a single paper? Am I even capable of taking care of myself if I lack the energy to open my laptop and start typing?

sisters

I can barely remember back when I was the only child. Most would say it’s because it is extremely difficult to remember things as a toddler but I would say it's because I was bored until my sister came along. My mother always says how important the "sister bond" is and with every year that passes I realize how right she is. Instead of writing a novel about all of the wonderful things there are about having a sister I decided to list a few of them instead.

It is the time of our lives that we are beginning to enter the adult world and most of us, if not all of us, have no idea what we are doing. It's like starting a video game, but skipping the tutorial. We're all just running around aimlessly hoping we accidentally do something right that moves us along the right path. Now that graduation has just happened, or is right around the corner for some of us, it's time to start thinking about how we are going to take care of ourselves once we are on our own.

If you’re anything like me, you love a good cup of coffee. My coffee always comes from Starbucks; I refuse to drink it from anywhere else. Over the years, it’s become one of my biggest addictions. So, if you are aware that you’re a Starbucks addict as well, or maybe you need to check to see if you’re an addict, here are seven ways to tell.

College involves a whirlwind of emotions, whether it’s from the stress of an assignment (or twenty), or from fighting with your roommate. It can be overwhelming at times and it’s important to take a step a back and calmly think things over. Maybe gain some perspective. The following aren’t foolproof tips and may not apply to you, but I was able to find success with them (hope you do too!)
