After 3 and 2/3rds of my collegiate career there is one thing that I have figured out. No matter how much work I seem to encounter I always make it through. I think that as college students we can always have a negative perspective on what lies ahead for us.
But in reality if school work is the worst thing that we can have to deal with in our lives we are ok. Just today I caught myself complain in class about the overwhelming workload. I just needed to step back and see that this whole college thing will all be over soon and once it’s gone it will never be back. So in this time of stress embrace it, battle it, enjoy it and just deal with it. Because we should all be so lucky to be college students in today’s economy.
Below I put a link on some helpful tips to relax for college students..

I completely agree! I often find myself stressing out about a test, or a paper, or a project. Even though at the time it seems to be the MOST important thing in the world, I always get through it without a problem. I have caught myself complaining about my classes many times to my older sisters, who are working 40 hour weeks, and hating their jobs (for the most part), and they always tell me the same thing, "Hayley, I wish I could go to class for 15 hours a week, do a few hours of homework, and live the college life." I always forget how good the college life is, and in a few short months, it will be over, and then its out to the real world where they are no "skips," and extensions. And tests? Everyday will be a test! But theres no way to prepare yourself for the kind of tests you'll get in the real world. So in my last few months as a college student, I'm going to take full advantage of my current lifestyle, and fully appreciate how great it really is!
Im not saying that stress shouldn't be apart of a college student's life, but its hard as a senior to ignore the regular course load in addition to the signs of graduation. Although it seems I have been more stressed out this year than any other year, it seems that I am able to conquer it and have fun at the same time. I know that when it's all over I will miss college life; including the stress.
