1. "Do I really, really have to go back?"

[rebelmouse-proxy-image https://media.rbl.ms/image?u=%2Ffiles%2F2017%2F01%2F29%2F636213019796607746-664184797_thoughts%25202.gif&ho=https%3A%2F%2Faz616578.vo.msecnd.net&s=160&h=fd80a72cd1a4a69a503d258d7e6463e1738951baa68e46d6f01e798223ba12aa&size=980x&c=1855010794 crop_info="%7B%22image%22%3A%20%22https%3A//media.rbl.ms/image%3Fu%3D%252Ffiles%252F2017%252F01%252F29%252F636213019796607746-664184797_thoughts%2525202.gif%26ho%3Dhttps%253A%252F%252Faz616578.vo.msecnd.net%26s%3D160%26h%3Dfd80a72cd1a4a69a503d258d7e6463e1738951baa68e46d6f01e798223ba12aa%26size%3D980x%26c%3D1855010794%22%7D" expand=1]

Yup, we all do.

2. "Should I just drop out?"

[rebelmouse-proxy-image https://media.rbl.ms/image?u=%2Ffiles%2F2017%2F01%2F29%2F636213020448416677-75207628_thoughts%25203.gif&ho=https%3A%2F%2Faz616578.vo.msecnd.net&s=629&h=c9bfa6129c576f92aec8dd3ce6c7b295790b7cfecddc3de0c1aa173395b898b7&size=980x&c=1569469876 crop_info="%7B%22image%22%3A%20%22https%3A//media.rbl.ms/image%3Fu%3D%252Ffiles%252F2017%252F01%252F29%252F636213020448416677-75207628_thoughts%2525203.gif%26ho%3Dhttps%253A%252F%252Faz616578.vo.msecnd.net%26s%3D629%26h%3Dc9bfa6129c576f92aec8dd3ce6c7b295790b7cfecddc3de0c1aa173395b898b7%26size%3D980x%26c%3D1569469876%22%7D" expand=1]

Honestly, we've all thought it.

3. "Dang, new classes means having to meet new people."

[rebelmouse-proxy-image https://media.rbl.ms/image?u=%2Ffiles%2F2017%2F01%2F29%2F6362130212023090541797403437_thoughts%25204.gif&ho=https%3A%2F%2Faz616578.vo.msecnd.net&s=461&h=6a81cce94c8b6d8ddd4694cb8b6cf8d8426af654de7a255f01488a8f43d8555f&size=980x&c=3323674825 crop_info="%7B%22image%22%3A%20%22https%3A//media.rbl.ms/image%3Fu%3D%252Ffiles%252F2017%252F01%252F29%252F6362130212023090541797403437_thoughts%2525204.gif%26ho%3Dhttps%253A%252F%252Faz616578.vo.msecnd.net%26s%3D461%26h%3D6a81cce94c8b6d8ddd4694cb8b6cf8d8426af654de7a255f01488a8f43d8555f%26size%3D980x%26c%3D3323674825%22%7D" expand=1]

Turns out, in college, you get to repeat those awkward first classes with introductions and silence until you find the right person to become friends with.

4. "I can no longer ignore responsibility."

[rebelmouse-proxy-image https://media.rbl.ms/image?u=%2Ffiles%2F2017%2F01%2F29%2F6362130217352893872040212774_thoughts%25205.gif&ho=https%3A%2F%2Faz616578.vo.msecnd.net&s=743&h=c39a23896c15eab5b722aef607ab9fff8f56b953c32167cf5579cc17ba59ca60&size=980x&c=1199209724 crop_info="%7B%22image%22%3A%20%22https%3A//media.rbl.ms/image%3Fu%3D%252Ffiles%252F2017%252F01%252F29%252F6362130217352893872040212774_thoughts%2525205.gif%26ho%3Dhttps%253A%252F%252Faz616578.vo.msecnd.net%26s%3D743%26h%3Dc39a23896c15eab5b722aef607ab9fff8f56b953c32167cf5579cc17ba59ca60%26size%3D980x%26c%3D1199209724%22%7D" expand=1]

If you're like me, you ignored it all break.

5. "I'm going to be sleepy all the time."

[rebelmouse-proxy-image https://media.rbl.ms/image?u=%2Ffiles%2F2017%2F01%2F29%2F636213023209923166-1672071961_thoughts%25206.gif&ho=https%3A%2F%2Faz616578.vo.msecnd.net&s=342&h=fde3837a91db6c3fe9dc8c01c024cc2639aa5fd2e14c69d798f029cfa052a71e&size=980x&c=2647948769 crop_info="%7B%22image%22%3A%20%22https%3A//media.rbl.ms/image%3Fu%3D%252Ffiles%252F2017%252F01%252F29%252F636213023209923166-1672071961_thoughts%2525206.gif%26ho%3Dhttps%253A%252F%252Faz616578.vo.msecnd.net%26s%3D342%26h%3Dfde3837a91db6c3fe9dc8c01c024cc2639aa5fd2e14c69d798f029cfa052a71e%26size%3D980x%26c%3D2647948769%22%7D" expand=1]

Maintaining a sleep schedule in college can be almost impossible.

6. "I'm going to miss that short period of time when I actually had privacy."

[rebelmouse-proxy-image https://media.rbl.ms/image?u=%2Ffiles%2F2017%2F01%2F29%2F6362130272802247661942744529_thoughts%25207.gif&ho=https%3A%2F%2Faz616578.vo.msecnd.net&s=851&h=2365b82560f76eaa6d6414ba4b6b19636f7a9f06d6cd78750c9da8e479db445c&size=980x&c=3516596660 crop_info="%7B%22image%22%3A%20%22https%3A//media.rbl.ms/image%3Fu%3D%252Ffiles%252F2017%252F01%252F29%252F6362130272802247661942744529_thoughts%2525207.gif%26ho%3Dhttps%253A%252F%252Faz616578.vo.msecnd.net%26s%3D851%26h%3D2365b82560f76eaa6d6414ba4b6b19636f7a9f06d6cd78750c9da8e479db445c%26size%3D980x%26c%3D3516596660%22%7D" expand=1]

Whether your roommate is awesome, or not-so awesome, there's not much privacy in dorm rooms.

7. "Bye-Bye money."

[rebelmouse-proxy-image https://media.rbl.ms/image?u=%2Ffiles%2F2017%2F01%2F29%2F636213018814709019-805971414_thoughts%25201.gif&ho=https%3A%2F%2Faz616578.vo.msecnd.net&s=599&h=1832babc2fc236a5e40acb7851c5ff0ad8f7248757bf3ed74adaed21022a03eb&size=980x&c=2352944992 crop_info="%7B%22image%22%3A%20%22https%3A//media.rbl.ms/image%3Fu%3D%252Ffiles%252F2017%252F01%252F29%252F636213018814709019-805971414_thoughts%2525201.gif%26ho%3Dhttps%253A%252F%252Faz616578.vo.msecnd.net%26s%3D599%26h%3D1832babc2fc236a5e40acb7851c5ff0ad8f7248757bf3ed74adaed21022a03eb%26size%3D980x%26c%3D2352944992%22%7D" expand=1]

This is something all of us as college students go through unless you're magically making bank. Textbooks are expensive and, of course, there are those times that you can no longer get yourself to eat cafeteria food.

8. "Can I go home?"

[rebelmouse-proxy-image https://media.rbl.ms/image?u=%2Ffiles%2F2017%2F01%2F29%2F636213028074448338-201373174_thoughts%25208.gif&ho=https%3A%2F%2Faz616578.vo.msecnd.net&s=302&h=1614436639b93935e9471058386748e5e0c32eaf3a755352b51822f631a72295&size=980x&c=1273655443 crop_info="%7B%22image%22%3A%20%22https%3A//media.rbl.ms/image%3Fu%3D%252Ffiles%252F2017%252F01%252F29%252F636213028074448338-201373174_thoughts%2525208.gif%26ho%3Dhttps%253A%252F%252Faz616578.vo.msecnd.net%26s%3D302%26h%3D1614436639b93935e9471058386748e5e0c32eaf3a755352b51822f631a72295%26size%3D980x%26c%3D1273655443%22%7D" expand=1]

Unless you're banking or live close to home, chances are slim. But, hey, you're not alone. I miss home too.

9. "I am counting down for when I get to go back home."

[rebelmouse-proxy-image https://media.rbl.ms/image?u=%2Ffiles%2F2017%2F01%2F29%2F6362130325219292861861423604_thoughts%25209.gif&ho=https%3A%2F%2Faz616578.vo.msecnd.net&s=972&h=095dc8df0d528e8b3432f2500810cd285a224ce4753b7c84faeee01122f0b8bf&size=980x&c=45348848 crop_info="%7B%22image%22%3A%20%22https%3A//media.rbl.ms/image%3Fu%3D%252Ffiles%252F2017%252F01%252F29%252F6362130325219292861861423604_thoughts%2525209.gif%26ho%3Dhttps%253A%252F%252Faz616578.vo.msecnd.net%26s%3D972%26h%3D095dc8df0d528e8b3432f2500810cd285a224ce4753b7c84faeee01122f0b8bf%26size%3D980x%26c%3D45348848%22%7D" expand=1]

The majority of us are, you're not alone.

10. "Do I really, really have to go back?"

[rebelmouse-proxy-image https://media.rbl.ms/image?u=%2Ffiles%2F2017%2F01%2F29%2F636213033166089274-43648392_thoughts%252010.gif&ho=https%3A%2F%2Faz616578.vo.msecnd.net&s=367&h=b2b109215b398132bc1f5fb326608b08a49097bccc28a8b6c936a4ddc5a7e0aa&size=980x&c=2758873645 crop_info="%7B%22image%22%3A%20%22https%3A//media.rbl.ms/image%3Fu%3D%252Ffiles%252F2017%252F01%252F29%252F636213033166089274-43648392_thoughts%25252010.gif%26ho%3Dhttps%253A%252F%252Faz616578.vo.msecnd.net%26s%3D367%26h%3Db2b109215b398132bc1f5fb326608b08a49097bccc28a8b6c936a4ddc5a7e0aa%26size%3D980x%26c%3D2758873645%22%7D" expand=1]

No Sex And Upstate New York

A modern-day reincarnation of Carrie Bradshaw's classic column

3359
Pinterest

Around the age of 12, when I was deciding whether or not to be gay, Satan appeared on my left shoulder. “Ramsssey,” he said with that telltale lisp. “Come over to our side. We have crazy partiessss.” He made a strong case, bouncing up and down on my shoulder with six-pack abs and form-fitting Calvin Kleins. An angel popped up on the other shoulder and was going to warn me about something, but Satan interrupted- “Shut up, you crusty-ass bitch!’ The angel was pretty crusty. She disappeared, and from that moment forward I was gay.

To The Classes That Follow
Senior Year Is Here And I Am So Not Ready For It

I was you not that long ago. I was once an eager freshman, a searching sophomore, and a know-it-all junior. Now? Now I am a risk taker. Not the type that gets you in trouble with your parents, but the type that changes your future. Senior year is exciting. A lot of awesome things come along with being the top-dog of the school, but you, right now, are building the foundation for the next 4 years that you will spend in high school. I know you've heard it all. "Get involved", "You'll regret not going to prom", "You're going to miss this". As redundant as these seem, they're true. Although I am just at the beginning of my senior year, I am realizing how many lasts I am encountering.

Why Driving Drives Me Crazy

the highways are home

3529

With Halloween quickly approaching, I have been talking to coworkers about what scares us. There are always the obvious things like clowns, spiders, heights, etc. But me? There are a number things I don't like: trusting strangers, being yelled at, being in life or death situations, parallel parking. All of these are included when you get behind the wheel of a car.
