Movember and Studying Madness

It is the month of November. So far, it's been like a long and turbulent road that doesn't want to quit. Similar to the road trips you take with your friends in the summer months. The car is hot and sweaty, you are running on little to no sleep, you are hung over as fuck, you've listened to the same music for six hours, and you still have about 100 km's to go. I spend my time typing away at these University assignments like it's nobody's business. I am the kid you see in the corner of Denny's-lined sheets of paper covered with mad scribbles overcrowd my table, my eyes are turning red from hours on the computer, and my heart is in panic mode because there is too much caffeine pumping through my veins. Two of my professors so graciously gave me two assignments- each of them with a whopping 20 page requirement, double-spaced of course, but that's besides the point! My Movember beard is quite repulsive, and still looks like that scruff you see on a sixteen year old teenager. I am ready to throw in the towel. But it's all about eye of the tiger and never giving up. I will succeed.
