'I've been awake for 38 seconds and this is already the worst day of my life': 30 Back to School Memes for Teachers Already Dreading Summer's End

Help. School's back in session and your teacher friends are not well. 

Somehow over the last few months, teachers settled into a lovely lifestyle of reading the books they never had time for, enjoying the outdoors, peacefully enjoying their adult lives, and poignantly avoiding children of all ages in order to preserve their peace. But it's the end of all of that now–sorry. 

Summer is coming to its fateful end. 

Like every year, educators forget how to retake the reigns of the classroom, getting force-fed a new, seemingly randomized curriculum before stepping foot into a bungalow outfitted for a classroom 3x smaller than the one you're assigned. So once again, teachers are dreading the beginning of the new school year. How do we do this again? Don't worry, teachers! What got you through last year's class was your one favorite teacher's pet (they let you sign their yearbook), inspiring cat posters, and a very large tumbler of coffee every day. Cling to the things that keep the wind in your sails and tackle this school year like a pro. 

To pass the time before your principal arrives for your mandatory classroom walk-throughs, here are 30 relatable memes that will help you shake off the back-to-school blues.
