1. The library is more crowded than a Walmart on Black Friday.
Also, finding somewhere to sit requires the same fighting skills as making it out of Walmart alive.
2. Waiting in line to get coffee takes about as long as waiting in line for rides at Disney (half of your lifetime).
This means you have plenty of time while standing in line to contemplate how many projects, papers, and exams you still have left. Odds are by the time you reach the register you're going to be doubling that caffeine order.
3. Everyone is rocking the grunge/homeless look.
It's not that you haven't already been wearing sweats and Uggs to class, it's that now it's considered socially acceptable.
4. Your floor is deathly quiet at all hours.
Everyone is having a funeral for their GPA simultaneously, and the silence is ominous.
5. Office hours become the number one most demanded commodity on campus.
There is also a 99% chance your professor won't be showing up to office hours. Because that's just how this game is played.
6. People have their noses stuck in their textbooks like they're the last Harry Potter release.
Ahh, the smell of a freshly cracked open book, opened for the very first time.
7. The smell of desperation is in the air.
It's a tangible scent, like Axe--unappealing but recognizable.
8. You're considering changing your major again. Or your career aspirations. Or this whole idea of being in college.
It's never too late to make a career change.
9. Campus looks like the set of The Walking Dead.
It's both horrifying and reassuring. At least you're not the only one suffering.
10. You're counting down the days until this will all be over, and you'll be home for the holidays.
Keep calm and make it to Winter Break y'all.
