22 Thoughts Everyone Has The First Week Back After Holiday Break As Told By The Kardashians

Christmas break is an interesting time for college students. Going from crazy busy stressful times of finals week to absolute boredom and relaxation is a drastic change. The transition back to school is full of excitement and read. No one knows change better than the Kardashians. We have watched them grow up on television for the last 12 years.

From Khole's dramatic weight loss, Kim's 72-day marriage, to Kylie's unexpected pregnancy these girls know transitions.

1.) When people ask how you feel about going back to school.

Every year at Christmas your family asks you tons of questions about school. So you lie and say you can't wait for it to start again. What they don't know won't hurt them.

2.) I can't wait to see my friends. 

media.giphy.com

The ups and downs of college life has bonded your friendships so strongly that even a few weeks apart feels like an eternity.

3.) Which classes did I sign up for? 

media.giphy.com

What's my major again? What classes am I taking? What exactly does desktop publishing mean? Why isn't Kinesiology classed gym class? There are so many questions that run through your mind as you drive

4.) Why do I have so much stuff? 

media.giphy.com

Packing. Moving. Repacking. Moving. There is a lot of hauling. You know you have too much stuff, but what can you say you like your things.

5.) You know you wouldn't survive without coffee, coffee, coffee. 

media.giphy.com

With a Starbucks and Java City on campus, you are totally set for the much-needed caffeine boost. There is no way I could get used to waking up before 10 am with my cup of joe.

6.) Swearing this semester you are going to get fit. 

media.giphy.com

There is something about ringing in the New Years that sparks new diet and exercise habits. The keto diet, juice cleanses, and intermittent fasting are all crazy diet trends we all fall for. It's better to just start off by eating fruits, veggies, and whole grains, but we all know that never happens.

7.) When your mom asks you why you didn't prepare better for the semester. 

media.giphy.com

Having a mental breakdown the first couple days back is totally acceptable. There are so many things to keep track of. Your student ID wasn't needed all break so how are you supposed to know where it is now?

8.) Why did I sign up for an 8am? 

media.giphy.com

After sleeping in over the winter break it is a rough adjustment going back to waking up early and being productive.

9.) So much stress so little patience. 

media.giphy.com

Buying textbooks, printing out syllabus's, and starting work again is enough to leave you feeling overwhelmed and annoyed at everything and everyone. Don't worry you will get the hang of your new schedule in a couple of weeks.

10.) Why can't it be Christmas break again? 

media.giphy.com

Watching TV all day, drinking hot cocoa, and catching up on sleep sounds really good right about now.

11.) Catching a glimpse of that person who always talked to much in class last semester 

media.giphy.com

There are so many people you know on campus. Sometimes is it super awkward greeting them. You haven't seen them since freshman year, you don't even remember their name. Secretly you are hoping they just keep walking and don't say hi to you.

12.) How do I balance schooling and adulting. 

media.giphy.com

From recently being informed that I need to get a credit card, working three jobs, maintaining a high GPA, and cooking for myself each night there are so many things to balance.

13.) You are curious about who started dating who over the holidays. 

media.giphy.com

You missed a lot while you were away. It's great to catch up and see what's new in everyone's life. You find out two of your friends already dated and broke up while you were gone.

14.) Naps are a must. 

media.giphy.com

Classes all morning calls for a long afternoon nap. Our bodies naturally work best when we go to bed early and wake up early, but that is just not how it works in college. Often times you are running on a lot of caffeine and little.

15.) Looking back at pictures before the Christmas feasting began. 

media.giphy.com

It is not uncommon for you to find a couple extra pounds after indulging in mom's cooking for nearly a month. Now it's back to the grind of getting salads at the dinning hall.

16.) You are already exhausted.  

media.giphy.com

While it has only been two days, it already feels like you have been in school for months.

17.) When your friend who asks, "Have you ordered all your textbooks yet"? 

media.giphy.com

You don't know what classes you are going to keep or drop. Honestly, you are waiting to see whether you like the professor. While your overachiever friends already looked up there professors and know which classes they are going to keep. The first week basically just going over the syllabus anyway.

18.) Seeing people you had beef with last semester. 

media.giphy.com

Out of the thousands of students on this campus, you happen to have classes with that girl who did you wrong last semester. As soon as you walk into class, you see her lean over to her friends whispering and pointing. Let it go. She is not worth your stress.

19.) Listening to the professors read through the syllabus. 

media.giphy.com

You already read the syllabus a week earlier, and now you have to listen to it being read out loud to you.

20.) Having to defend yourself when you need a break. 

media.giphy.com

There are so many expectations from colleagues, parents, siblings, bosses, and friends. At the end of the day, it is okay to take time for yourself in this hectic time trying to figure out what this semester is going to look like.

21.) Most days you feel like...

media.giphy.com

You wake up feeling ready to tackle on the day. Only to find out you have 2 meetings, 3 quizzes, 2 tests, and 4 projects by the end of the week.

22.) At the end of the day you are determined to make 2019 your year! 

media.giphy.com

College is not easy, but once you have that degree in hand it will be worth all the stress and every tear.

Even though transition back to school is never easy, by the end of January you will have forgotten all about laying in bed all day because you will be conquering the world one bubble sheet at a time.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.
