September brings colder weather, new Fall styles and most importantly the start of the school year. Depending on how you feel about school, you may feel happy or sad about the early days of September. For many of us the only excitement lies in being able to socialize with friends and attending on-campus events. The rest of the school year our time is spent on studying, staying up all night preparing for presentations and spending mornings squished between sweaty people after their morning workout on the TTC. Despite all of this, we can find comfort in knowing that we all have the same thoughts throughout the school year. Here are just a few of those thoughts:

2. That sinking feeling when you’re late for class and can’t get on the overcrowded TTC

3. When your monotone professor starts reading word for word off his PowerPoint lecture

4. That moment you forget about the test until the night before

5. And when you get the results back for above mentioned test

6. When you realize your GPA is falling faster than this slinky

7. And finally, when you get your grades back and you thankfully did better than you initially thought (hopefully)

If we keep in mind that we all face the same struggles, it may help us get through the school year with a little more confidence. Help a friend in need this semester and find someone to help you get through your struggles!
