Remember the days when we actually watched television and didn't spend most of our days on our phones or social media? There was a different focus years ago and I know I'm not the only one that reminisces about those days. When everyone wasn't obsessed with watching other peoples lives but their own. Everyone was in their own lane and these oldies just made everything much better.

1. "Waterboy"

I kind you not, I watched this movie 24/7. Laughing at the same scenes each time, as if I didn't see that same scene when I watched it for the 10th time.

2. "Romeo Must Die"

I wasn't that old when Aaliyah was alive but I remember her so vividly in this movie. Her beauty goes unnoticed and hearing her songs throughout the movie was always a bonus.

3. "Save The Last Dance"

My favorite movie of all time. This made me want to be a ballerina so bad when dance was life.

4. "Bring It On"

All the series, the characters, and the attitudes made cheerleading a force to be reckoned with.

5. "Love Jones"

Falling in love like Nina and Darius did has always been ideal for me. Despite, some of the mishaps they had during their relationship.

6. "The Wood"

Classic. Makes me think if things were the same when my parents went to school.

7. "Napoleon Dynamite"

One of the funniest movies to date. There's no debate on this one.

8. "Martin"

I watch the same episodes of Martin whenever I'm home and actually have time to watch tv. Bruh man is pure jokes.

9. "Brown Sugar"

Being in love with your childhood best friend who also shares the same passions you do. What more could one ask for?

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.

December... it's full of finals, due dates, Mariah Carey, and the holidays. It's the worst time of the year, but the best because after finals, you get to not think about classes for a month and catch up on all the sleep you lost throughout the semester. 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.

Thanksgiving break is over and Christmas is just around the corner and that means, for most college students, one hellish thing — finals week. It's the one time of year in which the library becomes over populated and mental breakdowns are most frequent. There is no way to avoid it or a cure for the pain that it brings. All we can do is hunker down with our books, order some Dominos, and pray that it will all be over soon. Luckily, we are not alone in this suffering. To prove it, here are just a few of the many deranged thoughts that go through a college student's mind during finals week.

I know every college student has daily thoughts throughout their day. Whether you're walking on campus or attending class, we always have thoughts running a mile a minute through our heads. We may be wondering why we even showed up to class because we'd rather be sleeping, or when the professor announces that we have a test and you have an immediate panic attack.
