25 Thoughts All College Students Have At The Beginning Of A Semester
Tachina Lee

School is in session. Some students may be sad or even happy but what is known is that it's a new dawn for a new you. It's still the beginning of the new year so those resolutions may still be running strong. We may have made a resolution about staying on top of homework or actually paying attention in class. If you are strong, you may keep those resolutions, if you're weak it's good luck to you!

The start of the new semester means many things including new classes, new friends, and new adventures. We may be running around like chickens who heads just was chopped off but I believe that most of our thoughts at the beginning of the semester are basically the same.

1. Why am I up right now?

We probably will cry in bed for at least 10 minutes.

2. Why did I think that it would be a good idea to take an early class?

We always think that we can wake up super early and be productive with our day. We're always wrong.

3. Was I assigned any work over break?

LOL.

4. Nah, I'm not in high school anymore.

We're the cool cats cruising down the streets with stress-filled thoughts and probably some anxiety.

5. Do I want to look cute today?

Sweatpants are always an option.

6. Oh crap! I'm running late.

No matter how early we wake up, we are always somehow running late.

7. Where is this classroom?

Why are there so many doors and hallways?!

8. I swear, if I end up in the wrong class.

That would be the most embarrassing moment of my entire existence.

9. Hopefully, no one sits next to me.

I'm a loner. Leave me alone.

10. Am I in the right class?

These people don't seem like they belong in this class. Or am I the one who doesn't belong?

11. Oh no, that girl looked in my direction. Is she going to sit next to me? I better hide!

Probably the worst moment ever!

12. Annnnnd she did. Great.

Abort mission!

13. Why am I so anti-social?

Again, I am a loner. A lone wolf. Hear me howl!

14. This class is already boring.

Soooo boring!

15. I wonder what's happening on Twitter.

Just going to tweet my life away.

16. LOL. That's a funny picture of a cat.

Enough said.

17. Ok back to class.

It's either now or never homie.

18. Wait?! Is this class already over?

I just time traveled or something because that can't be possible.

19. I just spent this whole class looking at funny cat pictures.

I wouldn't want to spend it any other way.

20. Do we already have homework?

Nooooooo!!

21. I'm hungry.

I would probably be able to eat a horse.

22. I'm ready to go home and go back to sleep.

Nap time was never a joke.

23. Nevermind. Just kidding. I have to work.

I'm broke and want food.

24. The grind never stops!

Work hard, play hard. What can I say?

25. Can I drop out and become a stripper?

This is a very serious and legit career option.

Now, these are just a few of the thousands of thoughts that run through our minds. Syllabus week can either be super stressful or super easy. Either way, the school grind is slowly creeping up. Soon we will all be in the library running on little to no sleep and drinking only Red Bull. It's only a matter of time. So enjoy this freedom will you still can!

Dear High School Friend Group,

My sweet angels, where would I be without you guys. We all grew up together because we either met in middle school or high school and watched each other grow up and get "old." We got to go to prom together and then graduate together. Then watched each other as we continued our lives in college, joining sororities and meeting people who will impact our lives forever. It all has happened so fast.

Oh college, we can’t live with you, but we can’t live without you. It’s a love/hate relationship, really. College is an experience that no one can ever prepare you for, and maybe that’s a good thing. You never really expect any of the things that college encompasses until you are there. College is fun, but don’t have too much fun. C’s get degrees, but they don’t get you into graduate school.

Blair Waldorf

The "Gossip Girl" series may be over, but Blair Waldorf's iconic character lives in our hearts forever. Blair was the queen of the Upper East Side, and a character you either loved or hated. She taught us everything we needed to know about life, love and of course, how to score a Chuck Bass. So the next time you feel a bit lost and are in need of guidance, look no further than to the Queen B herself.

As I spend my Sunday avoiding my homework and other adult responsibilities, I realized that I've watched this series over and over about a million times. Sadly, there isn't a Blair quote I don't know, so I came up with a list of a few favorites. You know you love her...xoxo

College is an endless cycle of crappy, sleepless nights, tedious, boring lectures, and hours of never-ending piles of homework.

Summer: a time (usually) free from school work and a time to relax with your friends and family. Maybe you go on a vacation or maybe you work all summer, but the time off really does help. When you're in college you become super close with so many people it's hard to think that you won't see many of them for three months. But, then you get that text saying, "Hey, clear your schedule next weekend, I'm coming up" and you begin to flip out. Here are the emotions you go through as your best friend makes her trip to your house.
