The struggle is absolutely real this finals week, and what better way to distract yourself from the impending grade-plummeters, or grade-savers (??? maybe ???), than to do a bunch of things to keep your mind going, distracted, and otherwise just blatantly happy. We can admit that we all single-handedly do things we shouldn't ever be doing during finals, yet we do them anyway. And, so, here I decided what better way to distract yourself even more than to write an article about it. Right?

So, after about a week or so of observing the dynamics of people on campus, I came up with a very comprehensive list of things you definitely shouldn't be doing to distract yourself from studying, but we all do anyway. At least some, or in whole, in which case you're really screwed. Here's a top ten list of what you shouldn't do, but probably do, but definitely super shouldn't until you're done with finals.

1. Going to the Clairmont pool

Seriously, why did I just spend my entire Thursday afternoon tanning outside instead of studying for my two exams and writing two finals papers? Because I can.

2. Going out to dinner

Weekend trips to visit friends? Absolutely, let me just take a solid two hours booking train tickets!

3. Staying up really late (like 4 am late)

Again, why am I like this. Why do I do these things. I think I'm becoming nocturnal.

4. Scrolling through Facebook for hours

I think it's gotten to the point that I regularly poke people on a daily basis. This is really so much.

5. Scrolling through the meme page on facebook for hours (guilty)

Relaxation at its dang finest.
