Fellow college students,
To those of you also feeling the end-of-semester blues, I have also hit that point: those last two weeks in the semester where I can barely bring myself to care about my assignments — or anything for that matter. While my mind is yelling “YOU HAVE THINGS TO DO! ” my heart is saying, “Just one more episode…”
While I pretty much rely entirely on coffee to stay awake through the day and all I want to do is eat Whataburger and sleep, I know that I will get through this.
Yes, my English professor still hasn’t put up the prompt for the final paper that’s due in a week. Yes, I have a presentation I haven’t put together yet. Yes, I still have to write two more papers, read four journals, and complete my final art project. But, somehow, I know that everything will be OK.
This happens every semester. We hit a wall and can barely motivate ourselves to get out of bed. But we will rise. We will toss back a few coffee thermoses and throw ourselves to our computers (not to watch Netflix, but to write our papers, thank-you-very-much). We will take a study break to get some Whataburger — but we will come back to finish studying for those exams.
Unmotivated college student, I believe in you. Keep fighting for your GPA. Keep fighting to graduate. We will make it through this, just like we always have. And remember: summer is right around the corner.
