Happy Thursday! We’re almost at the weekend (#blessed), but it’s still not Friday yet so there’s obviously nothing better to do than complain! Here are some things we’d love to complain about this week:
1) The weather: So like, is there conveniently going to be a downpour only whenever we decide to step outside? Not cool for when you have people to *impress* in section except you walk in looking like you’re sweating/sobbing/having water coming out of every pore of your skin.
2) Midterms: Okay, why is there a midterm at every point of the semester? Isn’t that just not the definition of a midterm?!!
3) Halloween costumes: @world, please stop asking what my Halloween costume is because I don’t know and I won’t know until 20 minutes before going out.
4) Thanksgiving Break: Why are you so far away because all we want to do is eat, sleep and repeat.
