First Semester of College

1. This won't be so bad

Always having a good attitude towards class and college. You don't know what to expect but your excited about the new adventure.

2. I can't wait to do things on my own

Life is going to be easy! I can do whatever I want whenever I want!

3. Some professors aren't too bad

Your new to the world of professors and don't know which ones are good or bad.

4. I'll do my homework as soon as I get home!

Your anxious to get your homework done so you can do your absolute best and be prepared for the next class

5. I 'll go ahead and start on my next assignments

Even better you want to be ready for next week assignments so you go ahead and do them because you have free time on your hands.

Last Semester of College

1. I'm done.. I can't take it anymore..

You can see the light at the end of the tunnel and just wish you could get there sooner. Yet, there is so much to get done before that happens. You just want to stop everything and sleep all day hoping it gets here faster.

2. I can't wait to get out of here

You can't wait to leave the college you are at now to either start your career or be at your next school if you are transferring.

3. Uses ratemyprofessor.com like crazy and still gets awful teachers...How?

You use this website as a reference to chose the best professors and you still end up with a crazy wacko professor...

4. The professors have no idea what they are doing. Why are they even here?

you wonder how your professors got their job. Whether it be because they have no idea about what they are teaching on, or social skills, or something else, you think about it every time you have that class.

5. I'll do my homework later... the day before/day of.. oh yea i need to do that assignment still

When you get to class and find out your assignments you say you'll do it within the next couple of days when in reality you know you won't do until the day before or the day of..

11 Things Summer Nannies Can Relate To

As a college student, being a nanny over the summer is both enjoyable and challenging. Underneath the seemingly perfect trips to the pool or countless hours spent playing Monopoly are the obstacles that only nannies will understand. Trading in your valuable summer vacation in return for three months spent with a few children less than half your age may seem unappealing, but so many moments make it rewarding. For my fellow summer nannies out there, I know you can relate.

Love hard, every day, and never be ashamed.

If it hurts now, it'll hurt again. Not because you're gullible or naive, only because you fall fast, hard, and you do it every time.

We fall each and every time with the complete and utter confidence that someone will be there to catch us. Now that person we SWORE we were never going to fall for has our hearts, and every time we see them our palms start sweating. The butterflies in our stomach start to soar and our hearts are entirely too close to bursting out of our chests.

Growing up I have always wanted to own a horse. My grandparents own a well known equestrian facility in Georgia, so I have been riding since I was born. A bond between a person and their horse is a bond so strong that it cannot be broken. Everywhere I went I wanted to be around horses, even forcing my family to go on trail rides during vacations. Horses have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember has taught me great responsibility, as well as 14 things that all equestrians can relate to.

College is super hard. Between working, studying, and having a social life, it feels like a struggle to just keep afloat.

I understand. When you feel like your drowning and there's no way to stay afloat I understand that it feels like everyone else is doing just fine. I understand all the frustration, long nights in the library, and that feeling that you want to just throw in the towel. I understand that sometimes it's too hard to get out of bed because your brain is already filled with too much information to remember. I understand because I am also feeling pretty burnt out.

Some of the best advice I've ever received was from my social studies teacher in sophomore year of high school. He stated, "If you don't know it at midnight, you're not going to know it for the 8 a.m. exam, so get some sleep."

It's such a simple piece of advice, but it holds so much accuracy and it's something that the majority of college students need to hear and listen to. "All-nighters" are a commonality on college campuses in order to cram in studying for an exam that is typically the next day.
