Ah, summer! Time for soaking up the sun, hitting the beach with friends, achieving that perfect golden tan, and oh yeah homework. Summer classes can definitely put a damper on your summer mood but are a necessity that many of us must endure. It may seem like everyone else is having the best summer ever while you've got your nose stuck in a book. But its worth it! Get ahead on your credits and GET OUT IN FOUR YEARS. And while yes it's a necessity, that doesn't mean it isn't a pain! Here are thoughts all college students have who are enrolled in summer classes.
The class is online, I can totally do this
Easy peasy lemon squeezy! Online classes are such a joke. I don't have to go into a boring lecture and can do it all on my own time! Lets do this
Wait that means I have to manage my time and teach myself
Soooo maybe this is going to be harder than I thought. All these different deadlines and due dates are going to add up quick! PLUS no lecture means I am left to my own devices to understand this material.
Seriously assignments are due twice a week?!
Okay this just seems a bit excessive. I mean don't they realize that it's SUMMER?! Cut me some slack here please. Summer is for sleeping in and sitting poolside not school work.
AND there are multiple assignments due on those days?!
You're kidding! I have three assignments due on Thursday that each have 30 questions oh and then just three days later I have four more assignments due. Is summer over yet?
It's fine. Everything's fine.
I paid hundreds of dollars to take this class, I just gotta . suck it up, do the work and it'll all be over soon.
Google is officially my new BFF
Ah the internet; home to a plethora of information and entertainment has come to my rescue once again.
Okay maybe this isn't Soooooooo bad
Hey- I think I'm finally starting to get the hang of it! Typical me, getting all worked up and worried over nothing.
I am NEVER going to use this
To be fair, I'm pretty sure we have all thought this during some class in our academic career. But come on, I am a business major, why in the world do I need to know the acceleration and momentum of an object?!
I can do this only (#) weeks left
Gotta 'Just Keep Swimming, swimming, swimming' Wow I want to go to the beach
WAIT THE FINAL IS IN PERSON?!
This is quite possibly the worst thing that has ever happened. Not to be dramatic or anything, but I am fully prepared to fail.
I've got this
Worried? Me? Never! I've just spent the last ten weeks of my summer doing this stuff. Time to go knock this final out of the park
Freeeeeeeeeeeeeeedom
CLASSES ARE OVER! SUMMER TIME HERE I COME
And now time to move back to school
Well so much for a "Summer break" But now its time to head back to college and see all my friends again!
All in all, summer classes can be a bit of a bear, but we all suffer through it. Piles of homework and quizzes probably aren't what you pictured for your summer, and yet here we are. But it isn't impossible, you can get through this.
Until next summer!
