We all say to ourselves once registration rolls around, "Oh, an 8:30 a.m.? No problem." That is until the first day of classes begin ...
1. Setting at least 6 alarms in order for you to wake up for said class ...
2. ... And hitting snooze for every single one of them.
Until you realize that there is a 10 minute walk ahead of you and jump out of bed.
3. "Five more minutes" turns into 30 minutes and running out the door.
Who needs makeup and hair products when extra sleep is involved?
4. Rolling out of bed with yoga pants, a sweatshirt, baseball cap, and moccasins calling your name.
Quick, comfy, and an extra side of basic.
5. You regret staying up until 1 a.m. watching cat videos.
No matter how cute they were, they get you every time, and you clearly lost out on your beauty z's (see #4).
6. You walk into class and share the expressions of your fellow classmates.
Not a single look of judgement because you all know none of you want to be there.
7. Forget about your morning coffee or breakfast.
"Do I go hungry and be on time? Or grab that PSL and bagel and walk in 20 minutes late?"
8. On second thought, you order the most caffeinated beverage that is available on campus.
Maybe this will help me not pass out in class ...
9. When your professor calls on you and you cannot think of a single thing to say because you're dreaming about your nap later on.
2+2=Fish?
10. You cannot wait until your professor lets you go, just so you can run back to your dorm to take a much needed nap.
That is, unless you're stuck with an awful schedule and don't get a break until 8 p.m.
No matter how many times you say you will never take another class before noon again, you somehow end up registered for them every semester. However, the means justify the end, and regardless, you should be grateful you are getting a higher education, no matter the time!
