5 Thoughts All College Kids Have During April

No seriously, I have how many assignments?

5 Thoughts All College Kids Have During April
Megan Coltharp

There is something about spring semester that brings out a true laziness and inability to learn in most students (myself, included). Finals may be awful during the fall semester - but everything seems far more impossible mid-April for some reason.

All those assignments that you kept telling yourself weren't due for a few months are all due... tomorrow.

Somehow you have 6 exams, 4 projects, and 12 assignments all due in the next few days and your "wait till the last minute" policy has really backfired this year. At this point, you are calculating what you ACTUALLY need to turn in and how much effort you should really put in.

I mean, I'm writing an article that clearly is me procrastinating from the mountain of assignments I am staring at currently.

To waste another 5 minutes of your time so you can push off that semester-long project you just started, here are 5 thoughts all college students have during April:

1. How many questions can one ask a TA 5 minutes before the test?

At this point, you really better pray that your TA still likes you enough to answer your 552 questions.

2. Oh, I totally got this. No biggie.

My colored pens are out and I'm ready to learn 8 weeks of material in 48 hours.

3. Why did I sign up for this torture?

I think my major has decided that I'm not cut out for it. I think this is it.

5. Does the syllabus say anything about extra credit?

Me talking to my grades with only a few assignments left to turn in and not much hope left.


Well, you've officially wasted a few more minutes of your time instead of actually finishing your work. Now, get off social media and knock it out. Only a few more weeks left until it's all over. One way or another.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
