91 end of the semester thoughts you know you’ve had.

You know you’ve thought these things.

The struggle is real.

Don’t deny it.

1. Coffee.
2. Now.
3. NOW!
4. I swear we just started classes yesterday.
5. How on earth is it April 2nd?

19. Professor #2 assigns a paper.
20. Wait, you want me to declare my degree?
21. I don’t know what I’m eating for dinner tonight, let alone what I’m supposed to do with my life.
22. Okay so I’m creeping courses, how on earth do I fill out this ‘Request to Declare Program Form’?
23. What? I can specialize?
24. Why are there so many options?
25. This is worse than an all you can eat buffet.
26. WHY ISN’T THERE A SCROLL DOWN OPTION TO CLICK?
27. I can’t possibly type in an option, I have no idea what the answer is… or is there a correct answer?
28. Where is the “none of the above option” when you actually need it? Grrrrrrr!
29. Send off urgent help email to academic advising.
30. Receives the automated response saying the office has a “high demand of requests at the moment” ( they are indeed very helpful 🙂 )
31. Wait, declaring this isn’t set in stone right?
32. I changed my mind now that I’ve sent this in…
33. *Receive response: No, phew, this isn’t set in stone. I can’t specialize…why would you ask me that if I can’t!

43. HELP.
44. It’s silent, I can’t even scream for help.

47. Oh, that only took like 30 minutes…huh
48. Looks at bank account.
49. Ouch…
50. The only reason I need a job is to sustain my coffee drinking.
51. Speaking of which, I haven’t had one today yet, that’s why I’m so tired…
52. Or maybe it was the 3 hours of sleep I got trying to finish that paper.

73. At least I get a free dinner.
74. Or is it really free?
75. Ah yes, campus tours. “Here are all the exhausted, sleep-deprived, stressed out, and hungry students” ( I know I’m doing a great job at selling school, but you will LOVE university!)
76. A long weekend that I can totally be unproductive and attempt to not feel guilty for doing nothing!
