58 Thoughts We Have at Coe Library During Dead Week

This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at U Wyoming chapter.

 

1. Okay, I’m here. That’s basically half the battle, right?

2. Oh my, it is crowded.

3. Like, more people are here than there are pimples on my stress-acnefied face.

4. Free cookies!

5. Yay!

6. Brain food, am I right?

7. Someone is at my usual table…

8. Rude! Oh well, this cookie is hitting the spot right now.

9. Totally should have reserved that study room like I told myself I would…whoops!

10. Ah well, this one will do.

11. Studying…starts…now!

12. Wait, there’s not an outlet here.

13. Nope, this table is not happening.

14. Brr…it’s so chilly. I think they keep the library so cold to tempt you to buy coffee at the Book and Bean.

15. Great strategy in my opinion, but seriously, it’s cold AF.

16. Coffee sounds good, though.

17. How many cups have I had today? 3? Or was it 4…

18. Does it matter at this point?

19. Coffee=productivity

20. Maybe I’m actually thinking of yesterday.

21. Wait, what day is it…?

22. Was my paper actually due today?!

23. Omg omg omg omg omg omg omg

24. Sh*t sh*t sh*t sh*t

25. LOAD WYOCOURSES, LOAD!

26. Okay, it’s totally not due until tomorrow.

27. WHEW!

28. Thank you, Dead Week Gods, for blessing me on this beautiful Monday.

29. Really, I have a page left on this paper… #blessed

30. It’s okay, I got this!

31. But I really should study for my first test next week…

32. …But this paper?!

33. Gonna calculate what I need to get on the final to still have an A in the class.

34. Boom, totally don’t need to start studying until like, Wednesday.

35. Could probably pull it off if I waited until Thursday.

36. Will probably wait until Thursday.

37. Thursday morning though!

38. NOT Friday though, definitely not. No way.

39. Okay…so…back to this paper.

40. If I had started when I said I was going to start, I’d probably be almost finished by now!

41. Why does this always happen?!

42. Oh my gosh…someone ordered a pizza…

43. I am so envious…can I have some?

44. I need it!!!

45. Too bad I literally have two dollars in my checking account right now.

46. But it smells sooooo gooood.

47. Ah well, as my man Charles Dickens once said, “it was the best of times, it was the worst of times…”

48. Okay Dickens, my friend, is it really the best of times right now?

49. Haha NOpe. This is definitely a lose-lose, no money and no pizza? No thanks.

50. The worst is, however, sitting in the library smelling a pizza that isn’t yours!

51. Speaking of Dickens, this paper isn’t gonna write itself.

52. He’d want you to write a good paper, right?

53. I don’t even like Dickens, though…

54. Ooooh…the nerdiness…stahp…must type more words…

55. Almost done now!

56. Crushin’ it.

57. That’s enough for today, I think.

58. Helloooo bed, goodbye pants.
