11 Thoughts College Students Have About Going Back to School, As Told by Parks & Rec.

School is starting...again. No matter how much it might feel like summer will never end when it's May, August always comes (sorry). Regardless of if you love your school or can't wait to come home again, the end of summer always tastes a bit bittersweet. Yes, you have Fall and football and cozy sweaters to look forward to, but there also tends to be a tiny bit of homework and an enormous level of stress hidden in there as well. So here are a few thoughts you're more than definitely thinking as school creeps up around the corner.

1. How is it Fall already?

Weren't we just moving back home?

2. Wait, I get to see my best friends again?!

3 months is a long time, and nothing beats the excitement of seeing the people you love again.

3. You're wondering how you'll find time to pack when you're still working 24/7.

You need a vacation.

4. You check the cost of your textbooks and wonder if you really need them.

Make money get...broke?

5. You realize you're going to be broke again in a matter of months.


Between food, coffee and books, its RIP to your bank account.

6. Better eat all you can before you move out and eat like a peasant.

Can you bring your mom's cooking to college?

7. You're going to miss your mom...a lot.

How will you survive without her?

8. Scratch that, you'll miss your dog.

I wonder if they'd allow dogs in my dorm.

9. You laugh at the naive freshmen on move in day.

They won't know what hit em.

10. You realize all you're be doing is studying...all the time.

What's free time?

11. You've never been more thankful for syllabus week.

It's a gift.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.
