I can't be the only one...

12 Reasons I'm Already Ready To Go Back To School
Amira Totah

So don't get me wrong, I love a good break from classes but things do start to get boring by week two. I'm in desperate need of getting my college life back together before I lose my mind... And here's why.

1. I need to get back into a set routine

I'm the kind of person who enjoys having a set schedule for my everyday life so when I get thrown off of my routine... It stresses me out, to say the least.

2. I miss my college friends 

It sucks not seeing people you love to be around! Especially when you're used to being just down the hall from them.

3. Living at home is... a little stressful

I love my family so much but once you move out, going back tends to be stressful.

4. Low-key excited for the classes I'm taking this semester 

I love what I'm studying so classes are actually pretty fun and I get excited knowing I'm learning things that will help me in my career.

5. My relaxation has turned into boredom 

Being lazy and not having anything to do is nice at first until it turns into complete boredom and you're actually tired of sleeping and not having any plans.

6. I can start using my Dining Dollars again 

Broke college kids life saver. That is all.

7. I need to see my roommate

I miss my roommate so much. I always look forward to seeing her and talking about random things/ just feeling at home with her there... In need of a reunion.

8. I miss walking to class everyday 

Walking to class is almost therapeutic. You never know what you will see or overhear from other people around you. Also, I'm very much slacking on my daily step goal so this is something I need to catch up on.

9. I'm so close to graduating 

This is a love/ hate situation. I'm ready to graduate but at the same time I'm not so I want to spend as much time here while I can. (On the other hand, the sooner I get it over with, the sooner I graduate.)

10. I miss eating food at my sorority house 

We have breakfast, lunch and dinner... This one is also a love/ hate relationship.

11. I miss being in the comfort of my bedroom 

I love my room at home but because I can't bring all of my belongings with me, I always feel like I'm missing something. There is just something about my bedroom at college that is so peaceful and homey.

12. Independence 

Although my parents aren't strict on me, there is still a certain level of independence that feels taken away when you are at home. I love my parents but I enjoy doing things on my own so I'm ready to get my groove back.

Call me crazy but college has a lot of missable qualities and I cannot wait to be back.

5 Things To Do That Are Better Than Writing A Paper

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

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.

If you’re anything like me, you love a good cup of coffee. My coffee always comes from Starbucks; I refuse to drink it from anywhere else. Over the years, it’s become one of my biggest addictions. So, if you are aware that you’re a Starbucks addict as well, or maybe you need to check to see if you’re an addict, here are seven ways to tell.

It can be overwhelming at times and it’s important to take a step a back and calmly think things over. Maybe gain some perspective. The following aren’t foolproof tips and may not apply to you, but I was able to find success with them (hope you do too!)
