Welcome Back, Motherfuckers

Okay, someone’s got to ask what everyone is thinking: what the hell are we all doing here? It’s January 3rd! Why are we back in school already?

I still feel slightly nauseous from an excessive New Years. I am overfed and underslept. I still have holiday guests crashing on my couch and wouldn’t mind basking in the holiday lifestyle (read: in sweatpants and eating Christmas cookies) for at least another week. Wouldn’t you?

Whose bright idea upstairs was it to start classes again so soon? Give your head a shake, whoever you are. Students would wayyy rather have an extra week of class tacked onto the end of April than show up to another semester before the hangovers are even gone. It’s just cruel.
