Winter Break, As Told By "New Girl"
Kevin Foyle

Winter break has a lot going for it. Christmas for one is the best holiday's ever. You get tons of presents and eat tons of cookies and nothing is better than that. Hanukkah sounds cool too, 8 days of presents. You really can't go wrong with presents. New Years is about celebrating with friends and all that good stuff. But when you are in college and come home, winter break lasts FOREVER. A whole month of boredom. You aren't going out all the time like you are at school, you don't have anything you need to be doing and I can bet that there isn't anything super interesting to do in your town. It is high school all over again. It can be good though, lets not be debbie downers. Holidays are the shit. Anyway this is how most college kids winter breaks end up going.

When you sleep in your room by yourself the first night back...

When your relatives ask you about how your first semester was...

When you try to wrap your presents...

When you are reunited with your home friends once again...

When you get way to into the christmas spirit...

When you get all of the presents you wanted...

When you can't get away from your relatives...

When you get the squad together for New Years...

When you see the that one boy from high school at the New Years Eve party...

When New Years hits you too hard...

How bored you are once the big holidays are over...

Not having to eat dorm food for a whole month...

When you see the people from high school that you hate...

Saying goodbye to your home friends until the summer on the outside...

Saying goodbye to your home friends on the inside...

When you can't handle being at home any longer...


Have a good winter break everybody!

P.S.Happy Holidays!

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.
