The end of the school year sucks. Typically, I feel burnt out, I went to spend every sunshiney day outside and (paradoxically) I don't want the semester to end. While there's some great things about the end of the spring semester (ahem, no school work), I honestly think it sucks.
1. Warm weather
UGH. This has got to be the WORST THING!!! Boston sees the sunshine and has warm temperatures typically starting after I leave the city. I love it here but spending 9/12 months where it's mainly jeans and sweater weather?? Kind of annoying. I want to kayak on the Charles!! I want to take a boat cruise!! LET ME ENJOY IT2. All my friends are graduating
This is stupid and you all should stay.
3. Panic about what to do over the summer
The panic typically starts over winter break and doesn't end until mid-April. Currently, I'm still panicking but things are fine.
4. Registering for classes and housing
Watching the choices for housing slowly disappear every second as well as watching the classes that you chose for the most perfect class schedule disappear is the saddest thing. Everything is wrong and then you're stressed for eternity.
5. Time goes faster
Literally wasn't spring break last week and not two months ago?? How is it mid-April? How are there only 3 weekends left? Did this past week even happen? What have I been doing? I don't think I've had fun in 3 months.
6. Being apart from friends for 4 months
This is mad lame and I think there should be a law that college is forever so my friends don't leave me.
7. Trying to pull an A for a class you're failing out of nowhere
I realized the other week that an exam I bombed was worth 25% of my grade so that's great and I guess I'll just have to laugh through the pain hahahah. Keep me in your thoughts and prayers.8. Missing out on events
All the clubs on campus start having their "The Event Of The Year!" and they all coincide on the same dates at the same times and it's also beautiful weather so I'm really just trying to enjoy some Vitamin D, sorry I can't come to your tambourine concert. The summer in Boston is also chock full of crazy cool things to do outside and it's such a bummer to miss out.
9. Moving out
OK, how did I get all these things into my room in one car?? How am I accumulating even more stuff?? Is that possible??
10. Missing all your favorite food places
If you aren't staying at school for the summer, you'll definitely miss all your favorite places (I know I do).
11. Figuring out where your textbooks came from... or where they're located
Did I rent this from Barnes & Noble? Or was that Chegg? Did my Amazon account expire? Did I purchase this book?? I didn't even read this it. I don't even know where it is. How do I return these things??
12. Telling people "let's hang out this summer!" knowing full well you won't
Ah, yes. Hollow promises of "let's go to the beach!" and "let me know if you'll be in the city!!" all are just kind of sad, aren't they?
