12 Thoughts Of Every College Student This Point In The Semester
Jerk Magazine

Fall semester is almost done, and let's be real, we're all pretty much ready to die. The stress has been building up for weeks and the end is so close yet so far away.


1. Why did Thanksgiving break have to be so short?

It was nice to have a break, but it basically ended the moment it started. One weekend off just wasn't enough. Now that everyone's had a taste of what it's like to be away from all the stress, they only want more.



2. I'm so stressed out, someone help.

It's not enough that we all just finished our midterms and papers, but now we have the dreaded finals coming up. On top of that, our social lives are falling apart, mom and dad are up our asses, and we never get enough sleep. It's enough to drive anyone insane.



3. I want to watch Netflix...but I have homework so...Netflix.


4. College is too hard, maybe I should drop out.

We all consider this at some point another in our college careers, especially in the beginning. And although we're usually joking, we can't help but wonder--would I be happier right now if I wasn't in college?



5. How is winter break not here yet?

We feel like we've been stuck here forever, and can't wait for the semester to finally be over with. With winter break comes no stress, no homework, and nice clean getaway from everything ruining our lives.



6. I need sleep.



7. Do I really need to go to class?

They probably won't teach anything important and all the PowerPoint slides are online anyways. And they don't even take attendance! But I really should go...



8. I want summer back.


9. I'm hungry, but if I eat any more dining hall food, I'm going to gag.

Always caught between buying food and going to dining hall for free. By this point, we're all broke and don't have a choice anymore. But no one likes dining hall food, so is the food really worth it?



10. I should go to the gym...but this semester's almost over so I'll start after break.

Working out is one of the biggest things we all say were going to do but don't. Now that the end of the semester is so near, we keep telling ourselves, "what's the point?" We may as well start second semester right?



11. I wonder if mom and dad will send me more money?



12. I hope my GPA didn't drop too much.

Since we've been slacking off, we're also worrying about our grades. Maybe that one class we're failing will be an easy brush off the shoulders. Or maybe, just maybe, it'll destroy our GPA and ruin our chances of happiness and success.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
