This gif basically explains my first semester at baruch:

I never used to drink coffee because I always had enough energy to get through the day and then some. However, the stress of trying to get certain work done and then redoing it for a better grade changed that. Instead of simple homeworks here and there, everything seemed like a big project. It became a struggle to stay focused or even awake in class and at home all I was inclined to do was to sleep. So I started drinking coffee and it has helped to keep me awake and to pay attention to what is at hand. College is something we all need to adjust to, but I think I’m starting to get the hang of it and that next semester will be a little better because I now know what to expect.
