Thoughts During The First Week of School
www.Greatist.com

When it is time to return back to college for yet another year of higher education, you feel like you have it all figured out. For, you are not new to this. This is not your first rodeo. You have done the grind before, you didn't die in the past. You are ready to do it again, better than ever.

When all of a sudden...


The night before school starts:

(9:00 a.m.)

"I can't do this again."

"I'm not doing this again."

"This is not real."

"I'm not going to school tomorrow."

"I'm not doing this again."

"Oh God, i have to."

(Midnight)

"This is real. "

"I guess i'm actually going through with this."

"I probably should organize my backpack for tomorrow."

"I'll pick an outfit too."

"I'm scared."

The first day of class:

(8:00 a.m.)

"Is that you karma? Here to punish me for my many wrong doings."

"What exactly have I done to deserve this torment?"

"I'm hitting the snooze button, i love the snooze button."

(8:15 a.m.)

"The snooze button was a horribly drastic mistake."

"I'm going to be late."

"Oh well, i'm fine with this."

(Drinks a strong black coffee)

"I'm excited about this."

"I love being a student, it's all i've ever known and I will finally be able to master it."

"This is going to be a good year."

(Arrives to Campus)

"Campus seems very full of life."

"This teacher seems great."

"All of these people seem great, i'm about to have so many new friends."

"Why wasn't i looking forward to this?"

"I love how smart i feel."

"Seeing all my friends again is amazing, this is what life is all about."

"This will be the best year ever."

"I cant wait for tomorrow."

"There is so much to look forward to."

(Leaves campus)

"I'm not too excited to read this text book chapter."

(Reads Chapter)

"Glad i'm done with that."

"Tomorrow will be even better."

Tuesday:

(9:00 a.m.)

"Waking up before noon is a feeling i'll be use to in no time."

"I'm excited to be back to the school routine."

"I'm super tired."

(Arrives to campus)

"There's that energy again, gotta love it."

"Alright, this teacher gave me an essay."

"I don't like this teacher."

"This teacher is way out of line."

"Whatever, I'm excited to do this essay, i'll feel so accomplished when i'm done."

"Soon this will be my accustomed lifestyle."

"Everyone seems friendlier this year, in no time someone will talk to me."

"Why won't people talk to me?"

"School is kinda fun."

"It's so stimulating."

(Leaves campus)

"I should probably relax tonight."

"I'm not use to this."

"I don't want to burn myself out."

Wendesday:

(10:00 a.m.)

"Crap, i'm late."

"Did I forget to do any homework?"

"Much has happened this week, i can't keep track."

"It won't be like this for long."

"How did I already forget to do some homework?"

"Good thing it is early in the semester, nothing this early matters."

"I'll be able to catch up."

(Lunch break)

"I love having a break in between my classes, college is sweet."

"When school 'actually' starts, I'll use this break to be productive."

"I will never have to do school work at night again."

(Returns to class)

"That disgusting food is making my stomach hurt, i need a nap."

"One more class and i'll deserve a nap."

(Leaves campus)

(3:15 p.m.)

"Finally home, I should nap."

"Actually, I got some stuff to do and i don't want to fall behind."

"I'll start on some work."

(3:30 p.m.)

"My old friend wants to hangout."

"It would be kinda rude to say no."

"College is about the social experiences as well, this is not a bad choice."

(11:00 p.m.)

"How did I let that happen."

"I have so much stuff to do."

"I did have a little bit of fun though."

"After tomorrow, only one more day of classes till the beloved weekend."

"I can do this."

(2:00 a.m.)

"Sweet, i'm done with everything."

"Ready for tomorrow."

"I'm excited, but OH GOD, i have my first 8:00 a.m. tomorrow."

Thursday:

(7:00 a.m.)

"..."

(10:00 a.m.)

"I need some discipline."

"Everyone seems as dead as I am."

"I'm sad."

"Everyone is sad."

"Already? People are wearing sweats and Pj's to class."

"Oh god, I hate school."

"This sucks so much."

"Feels like i've been in classes for a month now."

"Lesson learned though, i'll never be so foolish again."

(Leaves Campus)

"Please, for the love of God, don't let my phone ring with temptations."

Phone rings.

"I should answer this."

Friday:

(8:00 a.m.)

"I'm hungover."

"Too Hungover for this."

"..."

(3:00 p.m.)

"Finally, i'm done with this first week of school."

"Tonight i should go celebrate with my friends."

"Good thing I got all weekend to be productive."

"I learned valuable lessons about productivity this week."

"I'll be productive this weekend."

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.
