College is all fun and games until April rolls around. I am still convinced professors congregate in a conference room and gather around a circle table to plan all of their assignments to co-exist in the same week. April is the month where students who work ahead of time start feeling the pressure and the procrastinators truly push their limits. April is the final month(disregarding finals week in May) standing between college students and summer vacation; making it that much more antagonistic. During April, we as college students all have a number of thoughts in common, starting with ...
One month left in this semester!
Only four weeks left of having to wake up at 8 a.m. to go learn physiology! Only four weeks left until I get to forget about homework for the summer!
Oh god ... There's one month left in the semester!
I still have four papers, three presentations, and two tests to finish before finals week ...
If I prioritize and start now I can finish everything on time and not be too stressed out ...
Time to log on to my computer. Ooh Netflix just added that TV show I wanted to watch. Just one episode ...
*One entire series and countless hours later* What have I done? Not my assignments, that's for sure ...
It's okay I'll start tomorrow.
I'm only a day behind, no big deal.
There's a lot of fun stuff happening on campus this week...
You only go to college once and I am supposed to enjoy myself right? I can go out once or twice if I want to. College isn't just about academics, it's about enjoying my youth... Fine it's decided I'll go. I'll still have three weeks left to do work. I've done it before. I can do it again.
*Last Week of Classes* Wow where did the time go ...
I have two papers due at midnight and a presentation to give at 8 a.m. tomorrow morning. Then I have another essay due on Wednesday and my last paper due Thursday. I see a couple of all nighters in my near future.
It's Thursday, 11 p.m. and I have officially finished all of my work for this semester.
Ah I can't believe I did it!! I'm done with it ALL!
Wait ... Now I have to study for my finals ...
Screw it, I need sleep. Oh bed, how I have missed you. The library chairs got nothing on you!
*After hours of studying and test-taking finals are over and April is coming to a close*
It's done. I am so proud of myself, this semester is FINALLY over.
