Thoughts On Syllabus Week As Told By TV Characters

When it's the first week of class and all you really wanna do is build a pillow fort and call it a day..

Ugh... It's only the first week and you're already done. "It'll be fine," they said. "You'll see all your friends again," they said. After six classes, 3 quizzes and a million introductions, yeah I choose the pillow fort too.

When you've had the same language program for 3 semesters yet you still have to go through their computer software training...

We get it. We've done this forever now. Yes, I know how to access the online calendar. Yes, I know when everything is due...I think we're good here.

When the professor wants you to call them by their first name

I appreciate you trusting me and all to call you by your first name, but I was taught that the whole Dr./Mrs. thing was respectful so I'm gonna go with a no...

When you're trying this whole "being independent thing

Well let's face it... I'm in college... which pretty much means I am broke. Yes, I need your money, Please help me. I love you...

When you find someone to text about assignments

I love those people. Having those people to text when you miss a day or a second of class makes life so much easier.

When you finally get to go out after a stressful week

Okay so maybe drinking isn't always a solution, but sometimes it makes things a little better...

When you realize you have to do it all over again next week

So it's been a long week. But with a little help from your friends, you survived. And you can do it again... and again... and again... At least until spring break! Just remember you survived the first week and that is the hardest one.

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.

But what's worse than finals week is the last week of classes, when all the due dates you've put off can no longer be put off anymore.
