25 Thoughts Everyone Has Traveling Alone In The Boonies

In This Article:

I gave up my spring break to travel to Arkansas and see my sister rather than going to the beach with college friends. Driving through the mountains alone, I had many thoughts about going through the "boonies," aka the middle of nowhere. With no cell phone service to count on the GPS, sometimes you just have to follow the roads. I will admit I was speeding at times just until I spotted a state trooper.

Next time you travel through the boonies, I hope you can relate to my thoughts too.

1. What should I pack?

2. Do I need these shoes? 

3. What's the weather?

4. Should I bring my blow dryer?

5. Time to get this show on the road.

6. What song should I play next?

7. *Gas light comes on* *Eyes roll*

8. I don't want to stop again.

9. Stops again for food

10. I'm so bored.

11. Can this car go any slower?

12. USE YOUR BLINKER

13. I really need caffeine.

14. Where the hell am I?

15. *No phone service* *Eyes roll again*

16. Does this road ever end?

17. Where's the next exit?

18. How do people even live here?

19. Oh, the trees are pretty.

20. This place is creepy.

21. I've got to pee.

22. Is there even a gas station nearby?

23. These people must be hillbillies

24. I hope there's not a cop.

25. Can I be there already?

The Battle Between College And My Mental Health

College isn't easy, and I'm afraid I'm not going to make it at the rate my mental health is going.

Everyone tells you that college is hard, but they fail to explain why. Sure, classes are hard. Math sucks, and political science can be so boring. But that's not even what's killing me about college. What's killing me about college is my deterioating mental health.

As a college student, I feel as if people don't understand just how exhausted I, and fellow college students are. We have so many things going on, all the time, and sometimes it's hard to explain to people how we feel. Personally...I'm tired. I'm sad. And I'm struggling every single day with my emotions. But the thing is, it hasn't always been this way. I haven't always hated school, so why am I feeling like this now?
