It’s time for the spring semester to begin, already. Wow, winter break flew by! As we approach the first day back on campus, we all are experiencing different emotions.
1. Excitement
Yay! I love my school; I love my friends; I love going out on Thursday, Friday, and Saturday! You can’t help but feel excited about all your favorite things at WVU that you’ve more than missed over break. Timing feels just perfect.
2. Nervous
Should I have registered for 18 credit hours this semester? I’ve never had a class on Evansdale before; I’m never going to find my class. What was I thinking when I registered for statistics? It’s normal to be nervous about a new semester, but when life gives you Calc 2, you get a tutor.
3. Sadness
You’ve had a great winter break at home with your family and old friends, and you aren’t ready to say goodbye just yet. In fact, you wonder if it’s possible to pack them in your suitcase and bring them back to Morgantown with you.
4. Happiness
You are so happy for spring semester. Warm weather coming eventually is enough to make you happy. You are happy to attend basketball games, and you’re happy to begin planning your kick-butt spring break trip with your closest friends. Spring semester is pure bliss.
5. Disgust
Ugh, I don’t even want to think about waking up for 8 a.m. classes, exams, or studying in general. My brain is just not ready for that.
6. Content
After the whirlwind of emotions, you settle with content. It’s time to kick this semester’s butt and have fun doing it. You are ready to take on whatever it throws at you.
Welcome back, Mountaineers!
