Thoughts We All Have When Pulling An All-Nighter

The struggle is never less than real.

We have all been there. As much as we like to stay ahead, sometimes we all fall a little behind and immediately feel overwhelmed. Some of us curl up in our beds and cry, hoping the deadline will just pass without any backlash. Others of us quickly scramble to get ourselves together, hoping that we make the deadline without failing the assignment. No matter who we are or where we are from, each one of us can relate to how it feels to cram for something we knew was assigned at least a week ago. No matter if it is an essay, a test, or a project, the struggle is always real. Here are some of the thoughts we have when having to pull an all-nighter:

1. Wondering if you will pass the test

2. Figuring out the highest grade you have to make on the test to pass the class

3. Feeling confused about the material and denying that the test is important

4. Hating yourself for waiting so long to study

5. Fighting the urge to fall asleep to avoid your problems

6. Curiosity about how your brain can contain all of this information, or if it even can

7. Weighing the pros and cons of college

8. Wondering if you should simply drop out of college

9. Trying your best to pull yourself together instead of having a full-blown freak out

18 Things I Want To Do Now That I'm 18

I'm technically an adult, so I'm legally required to live a little, right?

For the entirety of my high school career, I was always seen as the goody-two-shoes. I never got in trouble with a teacher, I kept stellar grades, and when I wasn't doing extracurricular activities, I was at home studying. Even when I did go out, it was usually with a bunch of fellow band geeks. The night would end before 11:00 PM and the only controversial activity would be a fight based on who unfairly won a round of Apples-to-Apples when someone else clearly had a better card (I promise I'm not still holding a grudge).

Now that I'm officially an adult, I want to pursue some new things. I want to experience life in a way that I never allowed myself to do prior to entering college. These are the years that I'm supposed to embark on a journey of self-discovery, so what better way to do that than to create a bucket list?

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.
