I love fall, but October sucks! This is one of the most stressful academic months, in my opinion. Your first exams are most likely over, but your second ones are right around the corner. Also, the threat of midterms is breathing down your neck. You somehow become behind on everything because your motivation and drive have evaporated. Your only will remaining comes from coffee and your boyfriend. That being said, here’s a list of stuff my friends and I were stressed about this week:
- Spilled caramel in my backpack
- World Religions exam and presentation
- Upcoming Anatomy Exam
- Anatomy Lab Report
- Cheerleading pep rally
- Roommates
- Dishes
- Laundry
- Health
- Class
- Being Annoying
- Parents
- Friendships in college
- Multiple exams in one week
- Having a cold
- Constantly jumping from one thing to the next
- 67 on O-Chem test
- Midterms are next week
- Money
- Not having enough time for myself
- Maintaining social relationships
- Future career satisfaction
Know that your list, whether it is longer or shorter, is valid and understood.
