HOMEWORK IS SO HARD.
Not the content so much as the discipline.
Sitting down and reading texts that are pretty dry and dense is so freakin' hard.
I know what you're thinking, rolling your eyes and judging me.
"Yes, Sarah, welcome to college, where we do homework."
Well listen, sassy reader, once you have a taste of something you love, like film school, it's ten times harder to return to the thing you don't love.
I'd rather be writing my scripts or watching a movie.
Oh how I miss film school.
I keep telling myself that I just need to get back 'into the swing of things'.
Is that true?  Will I ever really get back into a comfortable routine here?  I don't know.
But I've realized that being back with Kesha and Sarah and Laura is enough to make me thankful for returning to Gordon.
So we have my ups and downs of Gordon so far this semester.
I refuse to accept anything other than the fact that great things are to come.
Happy Monday, friends, and welcome to the final semester of my college career.

In six days I will be driving back to Gordon for my final semester of college.  This is the time where I extract all that college has to offer and enjoy it.  So naturally, I've found a list of suggestions for my final semester.  There are several that are irrelevant to my life, but most of these are gems that I hope to follow.

I'm copying this from Total Sorority Move (http://totalfratmove.com/39-things-you-must-do-your-last-semester-of-college/).

After exams you didn’t study for, homework you didn’t do, and bar tabs your parents are still paying off, these college years are coming to a close. A chapter is ending — and it’s a really fucking good one. Enjoy these last few months. Enjoy them with everything you have.

1. Stay out all night. Literally stay out until the sun comes up. Reminisce, shoot the shit, drink too much. You have your whole adult life for sleep.

2. Start applying for internships/jobs now. Between the binge drinking and the class skipping, find time to be proactive. You’ll be glad you did.

3. Learn how to write a good cover letter. This is important. You must stand out.

4. Stop sending nude pictures. These will come back to haunt you. Seriously. Stop it.

5. Make every single form of social media you have private. Your future employers WILL search for you and trust me, they won’t like what they find.

6. Wake up in a freshman dorm. Once you’re out of college, hooking up with an eighteen-year-old is for the morally bankrupt. Roll in the hay – or crib, as it may be – one last time.

7. Be stupid – but not too stupid.

8. Make or break it with the college sweetheart. If it’s not forever, let it die. Being a recent postgrad is hard enough. No one needs a shitty relationship, to boot.

9. Thank your parents. Mean it.

10. Skip class and go to a bar. Your professors will be more forgiving than your future bosses will.

11. Stop cheating. Stop plagiarizing. Stop scanning. Stop skimming.

12. Realize that the right thing will not always be the easy thing. Deal with it.

13. Start becoming the person you really want to be.

14. Stop making excuses.

15. Read something written by Dave Ramsey. Learn how to balance a checkbook. Manage your money.

16. Stop buying stupid shit. You will have to pay your own bills soon enough. Try not to go into debt.

17. Put. Down. Your. Phone.

18. Take mental pictures of everything. Real memories don’t need to be filtered or snapped, the good ones need to be cherished in your mind.

19. Start taking responsibility for your achievements, and more importantly, for your mistakes.

20. Credit cards are only fun until you have to pay the bill. Remember that.

21. Use condoms. And birth control. And maybe even spermicide for good measure. You know what’s fun? Sex. You know what’s not? A baby.

22. Learn to like coffee that isn’t $7 a cup.

23. Drink more water. Your hangovers get exponentially worse as soon as you cross that graduation stage.

24. Pedialyte. This is your new best friend.

25. Stop thinking that the best years of your life are coming to an end. They’re good years, yes. But the best? No.

26. Do not address the fact that you are still on the family cell phone plan. Odds are, if you don’t mention it, neither will your parents. Ride this one out as long as possible.

27. Never “hashtag” in a work email. You think it’s funny. They think it’s obnoxious. #trustme

28. It’s okay to cry and it’s okay to be scared. These are scary times. Anyone who says otherwise is a liar.

29. Get on some sort of fitness routine. You will gain weight after graduation and it will be awful.

30. Appreciate the friendships you have now. Do your best to maintain them, but understand that some people are not meant to stay in your life for forever. It’s okay.

31. Forgive the person who broke your heart, but also unfriend them on Facebook. There’s nothing quite as awful as seeing the engagement announcement of a former flame.

32. It is likely that you will move back home at some point within the two years following graduation. Try not to be unbearable. Your parents won’t like it, either.

33. People get dumped, people get fired, people get sick. Be as carefree as possible for these last few months. Real life is scary. Right now doesn’t have to be.

34. This is not the happiest you will ever be. It feels like it is, but it’s not.

35. Actually attend class for once. Your parents are paying a lot of money for you to dick around.

36. People will start getting engaged, married, and having babies throughout the next year. It really is okay if you’re not one of them.

37. A relationship does not definite your self-worth or happiness. Concentrate on yourself for a while. Now is a good time to be selfish.

38. Stop smoking.

39. You’re never too old to ask for help. Remember that.
