The End Of the Semester As Told By 'Drake and Josh'

I twisted my liver and I am unable to read, write or bathe

The End Of the Semester As Told By 'Drake and Josh'

So, this is it. The end of fall semester is finally approaching, and there are mixed emotions swirling in the air. I mean, we love our friends at college, our beloved frat parties and clubs...but then there's the real school-y aspect of it *cue sighs and sniffles*. How are we supposed to feel about going back home when it means finally getting a break from schoolwork and studying at the cost of the heartbreak of leaving friends and going out? That's exactly what our old and beloved friends Drake and Josh are here to help us figure out...


First, there's the rush of excitement...you're going home!

There is no longer a need for showering with shoes or questioning the origin of the hair on the wall

But then you realize that you're going back home...to live with your sibling...

Then again, you do sorta miss your partner in crime.

Finally! You don't have to do your own laundry or go to target on your own when you need food!!!

And you really just aren't ready to tell all of your curious relatives how school was

Repeating the same stories over and over again gets exhausting.

As much as you love your own room, not having your roommate there to giggle with at all times is going to be boring.

It will be nice getting a break from studying...unless you actually let your brain turn into mush.

...which is honestly a legitimate possibility.

You already know how sad you're going to be when the song you and your friends scream along with when you go outcomes on in the car.

On the other hand, you're finally able to sit and cuddle with your dog all day and see your old friends!!!

That is until your parents call and ask you to do the errands that they don't want to do after work

And you really just want to say to them:

But instead, you embellish your current situation juuuuuust a little bit.

Of course, we can't forget going back to work!

Then comes the phase you know is bound to be reached once you've been home for long enough and the family fighting begins...

And at first, you won't care all that much

Eventually, someone will apologize and you'll be sassy about it

But then, you'll realize you're leaving soon to go back to school and, well, you'll all make up.


Before we know it, we'll be in a packed car heading back to school, after a fun-filled winter break!

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.
