18 Signs You're Done With This Semester

I am no longer ashamed to cry in public.

18 Signs You're Done With This Semester

It's the time for late night studying, questioning what you're doing with your life and an excessive amount of crying. That's right; it's the end of spring semester. You may feel like you're falling into a bottomless pit of despair, because you are, but at least you're not going through this hell alone.

Virtually everyone on campus (minus a few people who you currently hate with your entire being) are going through the exact same thing you are. The natural response to "how are you?" has disintegrated from "good" to "fine" to "alright" to "help me, I'm dying."

If you find yourself dreaming of the days when you can sit like a vegetable on your couch with your dog nearby, you might be done with your semester. If you're not at that point quite yet, here are some other signs it's time for you to go home:

1. You haven't done laundry in weeks, so your outfits are starting to become weirder as you search through your remaining clothes to find something to wear.

2. You get irrationally angry at everyone over the smallest things.

Sometimes you get angry at inanimate objects, too. It depends on who gets in your way.

3. Your professor assigned a final paper and a final exam.

4. Ordering has gone from once a week to once a night.

5. You are no longer ashamed to cry in public.

People are more likely to offer words of encouragement than to judge you.

6. You're considering taking up alcoholism.

7. You no longer have the will to get up for morning classes/early studying.

Maybe it's because you've been going to bed at 2 a.m. every night doing work.

8. Showering/personal hygiene is optional.

Once again, people probably aren't going to judge you.

9. You call your family more for absolutely no reason.

10. You go on large adventures you really don't have the time for.

Sure, you have two exams and a paper due tomorrow, but Chipotle sounds awesome.

11. You have no money, but you spend more money than you have all semester.

12. The best part of your day is lying in your bed for the 20-minutes before you fall asleep.

13. You've never watched more videos of cute animals in your life; nor have you taken this many Buzzfeed quizzes.

No one else is being productive either.

14. People keep telling you to cheer up, but that just makes it worse.

15. Everything makes you laugh. And then you start crying.

16. You think you're being philosophical when you write your final papers, but you're really just spitting out garbage.

17. You've considered running away more than once today.

18. You keep telling everyone how done you are with the semester.

I don't think I say it enough...

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.

Tamatoa created a liar filled with shiny things simply for the purpose of tricking fish to enter and become his food. He too experiences a lesson in how easy it is to be tricked by shiny things when Moana distracts him by covering herself in glowing algae so Maui can grab his hook.
