You’re at your peak of stress.
Nothing seems to be going right for you: You keep telling yourself “I’ll do it later,” and later comes…But you never do it.
I always hate that period where you’re trying to get back into schoolwork after being on a long break. I struggle enough just trying to get back into the mindset of class after a weekend. Getting back into the swing of things this year was so hard. It must be Senioritis getting to me. Everyone else was on the swing.
I fell off.
It didn’t help that I literally only had three classes coming back from Fall Break. I guess it was supposed to smooth us back into classes. It didn’t help, all it did was smooth me into a mold that is devastatingly hard to get out of and that was the pure mold of “I don’t want to”.
November is a tough month: it’s basically our crunch time until we come back from Thanksgiving Break and then prepare ourselves for final exams.
Where did this semester go?
It’s pretty scary, I’m a semester away from graduating college.
And I tried so hard to keep up with my articles, I had the best ideas!
Halloween just passed and I knew I wanted to write about makeup looks that friends and family did for their costumes. Of course, it slipped my mind because, you know. College.
Forgive Me.
You can’t hire a student assistant in college because then you’d have to share your degree and that doesn’t sound to promising to an employer. Or you.

It doesn’t help if you’re a procrastinator either.
Procrastination ruins lives. I haven’t had a full six hours of sleep for the past week. I’m starting to regret those nights where I slept in and took those nine hour nights of sleep for granted.
Because “I’ll do it later.” And sometimes, later didn’t come for me until hours before my class started. Have you ever pulled a four-page paper out of your ass an hour and a half before class started? I pulled off this magic trick after staying up until 2:00 am typing a paper for a class I had at 9:30 along with another writing assignment given because someone was upset the class wasn’t prepared enough for the previous meeting.
Fun.
Not to mention an abstract I should turn in soon.
I’m just a hot mess ranting to everyone. But I think some of the best articles are the ones of content creators who just want to write and rant about the strife they’re experiencing in their life, it’s entertaining; it’s not as black and white as repeating content on a story that’s been repeated over and over in the media. It’s relatable.
So, for those of you that managed to bounced back from fall break; managed to do all of your work on time and be on your shit like you never left:
I applaud you.
I wanna you when I grow up.
