I don't think there was ever a time when I wasn't tired. Honestly, I can't remember the last time I thought to myself, "wow, I have a lot of energy right now" and would pass up a nap. But let's be honest, I would never EVER pass up the chance to nap. That's just how I have always been--sleepy. But to make matters worse, I'm a sleepy girl with a very busy schedule, making my chronic sleepiness a bit of an issue. I would say it's a curse more than a blessing and I envy people who can wake up at a decent hour each morning, rejuvenated from their sleep the night before, and go through the day full of energy.

If you're anything like me and your life revolves around sleep because of your constant sleepiness, you know the struggle. This is a list of things that you can relate to if you are a perpetually tired person.

1. When you've already skipped your Gen-ed English class 8 times this semester and are considering skipping a 9th time.

In bed like: Do I really need this class?

2. You can't survive without your daily nap.

No ifs, ands, or buts about it.

3. You have two sides:

You without a nap vs. You with a nap.

(Via Giphy)

4. The first thing you think about when you wake up in the morning is when you can go back to sleep.

(Via Giphy)

5. You've fallen asleep in your clothes/work uniform more times than you can count simply because you're so tired.

Every extra minute of sleep counts.

6. Coffee just doesn't work for you.

It doesn't matter if you have multiple cups or extra added shots, no amount of caffeine can save you.

(Via Giphy)

7. You can fall asleep anywhere and at anytime.

(Via Giphy)

8. A good night's sleep is 12+ hours.

(Via Giphy)

9. You're a pro at hitting the snooze button, it's more of a natural reaction at this point.

You can't even begin to count how many alarms you have slept through.

(Via Giphy)

10. You never dress nice/put on makeup for class because that would require you waking up earlier than you need to.

(Via Giphy)

11. You're probably always late to class, work, etc. because you sleep a little longer than expected.

You convince yourself that you can sleep for 5 more minutes, even if that means you have to be on the other side of campus in 15 minutes.

(Via Giphy)

12. You make plans with friends, but later cancel because you would rather sleep.

Sleep>everything

(Via Giphy)

13. People ask you if you're sick or O.K. multiple times a day.

Yes, I'm fine I'm just sleepy.

(Via Giphy)

5 Things To Do That Are Better Than Writing A Paper

Don't waste your time trying to write that paper when there are so many more interesting things you could be doing.

Writing a paper is never fun and is rarely rewarding. The writer's block, the page requirement, be specific, but don’t summarize, make sure you fixed any grammatical errors, did you even use spellcheck? and analyze, analyze, analyze.

Papers can be a major pain. They take up so much time and effort that by the end of the process you hate yourself and you hate the professor for making life so difficult. Questions of your existence start roaming in your mind. Am I even cut out for college if I can’t write a single paper? Am I even capable of taking care of myself if I lack the energy to open my laptop and start typing?

I can barely remember back when I was the only child. Most would say it’s because it is extremely difficult to remember things as a toddler but I would say it's because I was bored until my sister came along. My mother always says how important the "sister bond" is and with every year that passes I realize how right she is. Instead of writing a novel about all of the wonderful things there are about having a sister I decided to list a few of them instead.

It is the time of our lives that we are beginning to enter the adult world and most of us, if not all of us, have no idea what we are doing. It's like starting a video game, but skipping the tutorial. We're all just running around aimlessly hoping we accidentally do something right that moves us along the right path. Now that graduation has just happened, or is right around the corner for some of us, it's time to start thinking about how we are going to take care of ourselves once we are on our own.

If you’re anything like me, you love a good cup of coffee. My coffee always comes from Starbucks; I refuse to drink it from anywhere else. Over the years, it’s become one of my biggest addictions. So, if you are aware that you’re a Starbucks addict as well, or maybe you need to check to see if you’re an addict, here are seven ways to tell.

College involves a whirlwind of emotions, whether it’s from the stress of an assignment (or twenty), or from fighting with your roommate. It can be overwhelming at times and it’s important to take a step a back and calmly think things over. Maybe gain some perspective. The following aren’t foolproof tips and may not apply to you, but I was able to find success with them (hope you do too!)
