Student Motivation

If you or your loved ones are in college, then you know this is the time of year when students either call home crying over the slightest instance or go into hermit-mode, eating, sleeping, and speaking with their laptops. Or worse, both.

I just finished one of the longer assignments of my life and I had no words to describe it. I kind of can't believe that I might actually have time to do things this evening. I feel like I might be stepping out into the world for the first time in weeks. I imagine it'll go something like this:

It wasn't really that life altering though. I honestly just sat back down, feeling a bit less stressed, and ate a bowl of dry Kix with frozen blueberries. Don't knock it until you've tried it. Or have run out of milk and discover a bag of blueberries in your freezer and you think, "yeah, I really probably do need to eat more fruit..."

Plus, it was kind of tasty. I think I might be on to something, Kellogg's. Watch out, next I'll be reintroducing the shapes to Trix cereal (The loss of which was the greatest breakfast tragedy since the Oatmeal scandal of 67'). "Dry Kix with Frozen Blueberries: The breakfast of haggled Champions". I think it might add to your visual if I let you know now that I am wearing a very worn-in Pearl Jam t-shirt under a fancy cardigan (because I am classy) wrapped in a blanket.

To all you students out there, Keep going!  The end is in sight and it could be worse; we could have real jobs.
