12. You go to the library because you think you’ll get more work done, but when you get there you “just can’t”

If all of these signs apply to your life at the moment, then I have some good news: you’re going through a mid-semester crisis and it will be over soon! In six short weeks, this semester will be over and you’ll be getting ready to do absolutely nothing all summer (if you’re lucky). Just like your mom tells you when you call her frantic, it will all be worth it! So take advantage of the free coffee on campus and get studying! Your GPA will thank you later. Just remember the wise words of Hannah Montana, “Nobody said it’d be easy”, but it will be worth it!
