paper

There's no denying it — we’ve all been stressed before. People constantly tell me that being stressed is a mindset, but I’m not so convinced.

These pieces of paper are priceless — not just because I didn’t pay for most of them. They’re the closest thing I have to physically collecting my memories.

Learning is all about the experience, and if you simply study smarter, not harder, you’ll be good to go. Here’s how I survived my first three years at UC Berkeley and how I plan to survive the last year. 

You’re like that last pair of shoes that we realize we forgot to pack after wrestling our luggage shut for 15 minutes. Or that stupid discussion response we remember as we’re about to fall asleep at 2 a.m. Just when we think we’re home free, you pop up to remind us that our happiness really is too good to be true.

As the blood rushes through our highly-caffeinated bodies, we reflect back on the road of grief that got us to this point.

It's a good idea to get a head start on those papers, but sometimes, procrastinating by watching silly videos on YouTube is just too much of a temptation.
