She overthinks. We all do. But her? She overthinks everything; the simplest things, too. She overthinks until she can't think any longer. But, why?

She overthinks every Instagram, picking at every flaw she sees when she looks at the post. She overthinks because she doesn't want her insecurities to be shown to her thousands of followers. She overthinks because she thinks the smallest details will be noticed by those she doesn't want to notice them.

She overthinks every tweet that she sees. Could it possibly be about her? Even if she hasn't spoken to this person in forever, are they referring to her Instagram?

She overthinks when a guy shows interest in her because she's been broken so many times before. She overthinks how they're actually feeling. Are they actually into her? Or do they just want to mentally abuse her like past guys have?

She overthinks because she doesn't want the one person who she wants to judge her. She overthinks what she posts on social media because she knows he'll see it. Will he judge her? Probably not. But, in the past, guys have.

She overthinks flirting because she doesn't want to scare them off. One thing she says could either drive them away or make them want to stay. But does she say it? No, because she overthinks the scenario.

She overthinks what she's wearing because she thinks she looks stupid. She thinks her outfit doesn't flatter her. She pinches her extra skin in the mirror because she thinks they'll notice it under her baggy sweatshirt. She overthinks what she's wearing because she's never comfortable.

She overthinks without intention. She doesn't mean to overthink, it just happens. She overthinks because she isn't sure she's happy with how she is. Is she too fat? Annoying? Is she overthinking to the point where she's pushing people away?

She overthinks situations because in the past, she didn't think at all. She went into situations with an open mind, open heart, just to get things tossed back into her face. She overthinks because she used to not think at all. Now, she's scared of rejection, mental abuse, and judgement. She just overthinks.

She craves the attention from you and tosses away any bits of advice her close friends and family gives her. She doesn't want to overthink, but she does. She has an open mind, an open heart, and open arms, but she overlaps the openness with overthinking. She's worth it, though. Even though she overthinks, she loves to no end. She'd do anything for anyone. Be the person who makes her drop her insecurities and makes her open her eyes to her true beauty. Help her stop overthinking. Save her.

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.
