10 Struggles College Students Face Every Day

With the semester reaching the half way mark, it is hard to escape the feeling of exhaustion, and anger towards our professors who just don't understand that a 7 page essay is not what we need right now. Below I will map out the 10 feels you feel throughout a typical day when you're in the depths of a college semester.

1. WAKING UP TIRED:

There is nothing worse than waking up to feeling like you already need a nap. Wether you are running on no sleep, or the rare lucky student that gets the full 8 hours, you are most likely still very exhausted.

2.HOPING THAT CLASS WAS CANCELLED:


It probably wasn't but theres no harm in checking your email every ten minutes until class time, right?

3. REGRETTING SIGNING UP FOR AN 8:30 AM CLASS


What were you thinking?! You hardly feel comfortable waking up for a 10am class! Can we go back in time and change this?!

4. MAKING ENDLESS AMOUNTS OF TRIPS TO STARBUCKS


Then walking into class late, shamelessly, with the coffee that made you late.

5. SAYING "I'LL JUST DROP OUT" AT LEAST TWICE A DAY


It just isn't worth all of this stress! I officially don't care anymore.

6. WONDERING IF ANYONE CAUGHT YOU DOZING OFF IN CLASS


Answer, yes they did....and they're super jealous of the tiny amount of sleep you're getting right now.

7. WONDERING WHICH CLASSMATE WILL SHARE THEIR NOTES WITH YOU


You were too busy sleeping and missed the whole lecture. Which smart kid will actually be nice enough to lend you their notes?!

8. TELLING YOURSELF YOU'LL GET WORK DONE WHEN YOU GET HOME


Your second wave of energy can carry you through! You are unstoppable!

9. GETTING HOME AND MAKING YOUR TO DO LIST


YOU ARE DOING SO WELL! TIME TO GET TO IT!

10. LAYING IN BED AND TAKING A NAP INSTEAD


Wake up, and repeat.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

Whether you met your new love interest online, through mutual friends, or another way entirely, you'll definitely want to know what you're getting into.

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.
