10 End Of Semester Struggles Every College Student Experiences

The end of the semester just plain sucks. Your whole life consists of riding the struggle bus. It's okay though, you're not alone.

1. As soon as you come home from class...

You're done. Professors talk too much and your brain is tired of trying to take in new information, leaving you only to fall to the floor as soon as you make it home.

2. Balancing your social life with studying is getting harder to do...

You've gone out Thursday, Friday, and Saturday instead of studying for your exams and doing homework. It's okay, you'll get it all done on Sunday right?

3. Sunday is for day drinking though...

It's that time of the year again. It's finally warm and all your friends are having people over to some burgers and beer. So naturally, you go too.

4. Monday hits and you're back to reality...

Anybody that comes near you stresses you out. Getting out of bed stresses you out. There's literally nothing that doesn't stress you out but you know this is mainly because of your poor weekend choices.

5. The lack of motivation is unreal...

When you finally get to actually doing some school work, you're doing a lot of it and all the while trying not to have a nervous breakdown. You read those books. (Try to at least).

6. What is sleep?

Coffee. It's the only thing keeping you going. It's your new best friend.

7. Sleeping in the library is fine...

It's become completely okay to sleep in public places. That ten minute nap may be the only sleep you get and you can sacrafice ten minutes of studying.

8. The food in your fridge is nonexistent...

You haven't even had time to buy food in a month or two. Now you're permanently hangry.

9. You don't have money for food...

Your bank account is most likely under $100, for some of us it's under $20, so you're settling with starving. Now more than ever you wish you were a freshman with a dining pass even though back then you hated the food.

10. When you finish your last final exam...

You're just glad it's all over with. You took the exam, which basically counts as passing right? It's summer now, who cares?!

11. First week of summer...

Finally you get to do as you please... relaxin'... eatin'... having a real good time... That is, until your summer classes start, your internship, or your summer job. For the lucky ones... you get to do all three of those.

Tiana would no doubt be disappointed in the food our cafeteria has to offer.

And hopefully she would cook for everyone in her dorm.

She definitley would not take any 8:00 am classes because she would be up late baking and cleaning up the communal kitchen that are available in every dorm.

The dynamics of any friend group are usually determined by the personalities which make it up. Chances are, while personalities may overlap, each person in your friend group holds his or her own place. It is the differences which bring the groups together and keep them functioning.
