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

As you get older, you start to realize how fast life really does go by. One minute you’re waiting in line to purchase your textbooks and the next, there’s a month left of school. A month.

The end-of-the-year madness always starts the same. You nonchalantly go about your business as usual, going to classes, going to work, working out, hanging out with friends, etc. Then…

Someone asks you why you’re not freaking out, and you start to freak out a little.

You start to notice your caffeine habits.

And Netflix. Always Netflix.

While completely neglecting to clean your room (and continue doing nothing about it)…

And your laundry.

You realize you feel a weird attachment to the room that you’re so used to coming home to every day.

(Side note, can you imagine him saying that to you? Can you?)

You absolutely cannot think about moving out right now.

Then, suddenly, it’s 6 p.m. and you realize you literally have done nothing all day. At least nothing productive. Not really.

You can’t tell if you’re lazy or just plain tired.

But, it’s all good because you go to that one place (or friend) on campus that knows your face (and/or your order) every time you go there.

Then, promptly wonder whether it was such a good idea to go there when you have so much to do…

And wonder if your friends are more productive than you and how they do it.

Because something always comes up and you procrastinate.

So much just keeps coming up and there’s so much to do that you can’t even think about finals right now.

…Because one thought leads to another and you might freak out. All you can do is take it one day after another, one assignment after another, trying your best, and maybe, just maybe it won’t be so bad. Maybe.

But, for now, it’s time to be productive. Good luck, collegiettes!
