It's that time of year again. The birds are singing, the teachers are trying to squeeze in that last test before finals, and everyone is excited for school to end. It's disgusting.

1. Once the weather starts to clear up and the sun starts shining.

Give my pale, melanin-lacking skin a break.

2. Everyone is annoying because they have nothing better to do.

Something about that April air makes people go coo-coo.

3. You just. can't. deal. anymore. 

media.giphy.com

The days are getting longer and my patience is getting shorter. Day drinking it is.

4. But you still have to apply for big-girl jobs for after graduation.

I'm just trying to make my resume make me sound way more impressive than I actually am.

5. And look at apartments.

These are the important questions we need to be asking.

6. You realize adulting is difficult.

7. And expensive.

media.giphy.com

My future motto is 'the cheaper the better'.

8. Finishing your final papers is impossible.

media.giphy.com

And I can't wake up.

9. Everything hurts and you're tired.

media.giphy.com

I don't have money to buy coffee but I need coffee to function and do the things.

10. But you're trying to be optimistic.

media.giphy.com

Just survive.

11. And there's always a backup plan...

media.giphy.com

Free food. Free bed. Free friends. Just saying.

12. Everyone is sick.

media.giphy.com

Get away from me demons.

13. By the end of the school year, you'll do anything for some extra cash.

media.giphy.com

I may or may not have looked into how much foot pics would pay... don't judge.

14. Everyone is either really mean or really nice.

media.giphy.com

The end of the school year brings up a lot of emotions. I don't like emotions.

15. But at least graduation's in sight.

media.giphy.com

Bye losers. See you never.

I relate to April from 'Parks & Rec' on a personal level. Whether that's despising human contact or having to do actual work, her and I are pretty much the same.

Welcome April. I can't wait to get you over with.

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?

sisters
Taylor Hooper

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.
