75 Things I'd Rather Do Than Go Back To School This Fall
IGN

I know I'm not the only one that's not excited to go back to school this semester, unless you're in elementary school and the first day of school is more exciting than it is stressful. Sadly, most of you reading this are far beyond the stage of being excited about school, and with the piles of homework you receive every night, who would be excited to go back to what could basically be defined as torture? Instead of getting prepared for the upcoming semester, I've decided to make a list of things I would rather do than go to school. Without further adieu (and in no particular order), here are some things I would rather do than go back to school this semester.

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.

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.
