New Semester: Expectations Vs. Reality

Expectation: You are going to be so organized this year!

Reality: You are still the same old unorganized slob when it comes to your room and your school supplies

Expectation: This year you will wake up early and make yourself look presentable for class

Reality: Sleeping > Looking good for class

Expectation: Your daily schedule will include time for the gym…No days off this year, Halloween is coming!

Reality: Naps, lunch and Netflix still take precedence over dragging yourself to the gym

Expectation: You will NOT skip class this semester, you’re here to learn!

Reality: Skipping class is still really fun and skipping class is always better than actually being in class

Expectation: This year is different, you’re going to make new friends and expand your horizons

Reality: Same thing, different year

Expectation: You will start eating only the healthy options in the dining hall

Reality: The salad bar is getting real boring and there is a waffle bar this year…

Expectation: You will take school seriously. You will not get behind on your work. You are going for the 4.0 this semester!

Reality: TNR is more fun than reading and Effins is more fun than staying in to study for a quiz (it’s just a quiz, right?)

Expectation: You will use your self-control to not eat Ronzio’s every time you go out

Reality:  ….

Expectation: This will overall be the best semester YET!

Reality: It probably will be the best time as long as you’re with your best friends!
