I bet if I read the syllabus, I would never have to go to class during syllabus week.

1. Do I have to print out every syllabus?

Emily Blunt

This place asks too much of me.

2. How important is the first day?

Wise words, Ellen, wise words.

3. I guess I'll go to class, I need to find out how many days I can skip and if there is a final in this class.

Pink

Only one unexcused absent? Excuse me??

4. Google Maps TOLD me that it takes 15 minutes to get from class A to class B. I only have 10 minutes to do it in.

I'm fine. Really. If you see a student running past you looking like she is dying, it's fine. She is me.

5. Am I in the right class??

Guess I'll find out, hopefully soon.

6. Whoops, forgot to buy the "required texts"

Will I ever read them? No. Will I end up spending $500 because of my professor pressuring me to buy books? Yes.

7. "We have to go over this because I know that none of y'all will read the syllabus," — every professor on syllabus week.

I mean... they're right.

8. Two words that can kill me: group. projects.

9. This 8 a.m. class is the biggest mistake I've made.

Curse this professor who only teaches this class I need to graduate, and only teaches it at this time.

10. Let's try that whole 'sleeping with eyes open' thing

I feel like I'm sooo close to mastering it.

11. WAIT. WHY ARE YOU TEACHING?!?!?

It's called syllabus week for a reason.

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.
