The Day After Pulling An All-Nighter
Pink and Black Magazine

College is already tough enough, and with midterm exams, papers, and final projects already looming over all of our shoulders, we are all bound to pull a few all-nighters. While staying up all night studying is rough, staying awake and focused the next day is just as difficult. In fact, it's more than just a little hard. After the actual studying, writing, or gluing, we all find ourselves tired, angry, and craving nothing but coffee and sleep. With the day in full swing, there are a few thoughts that have crossed all of our minds after staying up all night.

1. Wow, daylight already?

2. I should probably wake up to watch the sunrise more often. *glances at time* Never mind.

3. Maybe I should stop procrastinating so much and actually get my work done.

4. Nope, that’s never going to happen.

5. I should probably get some more coffee.

6. Why do I need to take this class? It has nothing to do with my major.

7. I don’t even know what I’m doing.

8. Alright, that’s it, I’m done.

9. Should I go to my first class today? Yes. Will I? Of course not.

10. If I take a nap now, I'll get one hour of sleep.

11. Should probably check Twitter since I haven't in the past 12 hours.

12. *40 minutes later* There's no way I was on Twitter that long.

13. I should probably dress somewhat decently. Nah… I’m wearing sweatpants.

14. I really need some coffee.

15. Well, better go fail this exam. *Googles "jobs that don't require a degree"*

16. Why does everyone walk as slowly as they possibly can? MOVE.

17. Is it possible to fall asleep while walking? Because I think I just did.

18. Definitely not pulling an all-nighter ever again.

19. Did I just fall asleep on my desk?

20. Yes, yes I did.

21. Please tell me I didn't snore.

22. I know nothing on this exam. Like, seriously, when did we learn this?

23. Am I in the right class? This does not look like anything I've seen before.

24. Last night was definitely not worth it.

25. Well, 'D’s get degrees.

26. Oh thank goodness it’s over.

27. Better stop at Starbucks.

28. Should I take a nap? Yep, it's happening.

29. Wait, I have another class.

30. Four cups of coffee today, and counting.

31. I'm so caffeinated I can see sounds.

32. When was the last time I ate?

33. Please let us out early, please let us out early.

34. Of course you’re not going to let us out early.

35. Did my professor just see me doze off?

36. Will this class ever end?

37. Forget it, I'm leaving.

38. Well, it's too late for a nap, so I might as well just go to sleep early.

39. Oh, wait, I have an essay due tomorrow.

40. Nope, not going to do it. I'm going to sleep.

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

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.
