No seriously, I have how many assignments?

5 Thoughts All College Kids Have During April
Megan Coltharp

There is something about spring semester that brings out a true laziness and inability to learn in most students (myself, included). Finals may be awful during the fall semester - but everything seems far more impossible mid-April for some reason.

All those assignments that you kept telling yourself weren't due for a few months are all due... tomorrow.

Somehow you have 6 exams, 4 projects, and 12 assignments all due in the next few days and your "wait till the last minute" policy has really backfired this year. At this point, you are calculating what you ACTUALLY need to turn in and how much effort you should really put in.

I mean, I'm writing an article that clearly is me procrastinating from the mountain of assignments I am staring at currently.

To waste another 5 minutes of your time so you can push off that semester-long project you just started, here are 5 thoughts all college students have during April:

1. How many questions can one ask a TA 5 minutes before the test?

At this point, you really better pray that your TA still likes you enough to answer your 552 questions.

2. Oh, I totally got this. No biggie.

My colored pens are out and I'm ready to learn 8 weeks of material in 48 hours.

3. Why did I sign up for this torture?

I think my major has decided that I'm not cut out for it. I think this is it.

5. Does the syllabus say anything about extra credit?

Me talking to my grades with only a few assignments left to turn in and not much hope left.


Well, you've officially wasted a few more minutes of your time instead of actually finishing your work. Now, get off social media and knock it out. Only a few more weeks left until it's all over. One way or another.

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
