35 Thoughts You Have during Your 9 AM

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

1. Wake up to alarm at 8:00.

2. Snooze until 8:45.

3. Roll out of bed into your finest pair of yoga pants and fave UCD sweatshirt.

4. Ignore any need for breakfast because it’s just too damn early for anything important.

5. Slowly bike to class, telling yourself that you don’t have to rush because going to class in the first place is an accomplishment.

6. Back row, for sure.

7. Wow! Do all these people normally come to class?

8. This topic seemed more exciting before I actually started studying it.

9. Okay, okay pay attention you missed the last four lectures so you have to pay attention in this one.

10. Time to take notes…what’s the date?

11. It is too early for this.

12. No, look alive. The midterm is next week. Or was it last week?

13. Seriously, what is this professor even talking about?

14. I wish I had a friend in this class.

15. I’ll text all my friends to see if they are awake.

16. Nope. Trivia Crack instead.

17. C’mon girl focus.

18. Okay I think I kind of get this!

19. I should have been coming this whole quarter!

20. Wait what does that abbreviation mean?

21. Everyone is writing it down… Should I know what that means?

22. Why did I sign up for this class I don’t understand anything.

23. What time is it? 9:13???? WHEN WILL THIS END??

24. Maybe if I just write down everything he says then I can try and figure it out at home with my textbook.

25. I never bought the textbook…

26. Someone once told me that doodling helps them concentrate. Maybe I’ll try that.

27. I never knew I was such a good artist! I should change majors.

28. Okay he’s switching topics so maybe if I pay attention from the beginning then I’ll be able to understand it.

29. I was right. I’ve got this. Girl power.

30. *humming*….who run the world? Girls. Who run this motha? Girls.

31. How long have I been singing? Did anyone hear me?

32. Everyone has so many notes. That girl has nice handwriting. I think I can just copy her notes if I sneakily look at her paper.

33. She saw me.

34. Wait, it’s ending. I still don’t understand anything. He said “see you next time.” I’ll be there, prof!

35. Who am I kidding? I’ll just go to office hours.
