10 Things I'd Rather Do Than Take Finals

Finals. Just the word gives me a tingle down the spine. Literally, I'd rather do anything than take these dang exams.There's truly nothing that I hate more than having to study, focus, and get way too stressed out when all I want to do is get into the holiday spirit. But seriously, can't a girl drink some hot chocolate and watch 25 Days of Christmas without having to worry about an English exam that's worth like half of my grade?!

I've never been a test taker, and I never will be, so clearly taking finals is just not my cup of tea. Here are 10 things that I would rather do than take finals, as told by everyone's favorite holiday movies, to help us get into the spirit amidst all of this stress.

1. Stick my tongue on a frozen telephone pole.

2. Eat cotton balls.

3. Dress up in a pink bunny onesie.

4. Get hit by a taxi.

5. Uncomfortably squeeze into a very small chimney.

6. Annoy my dad at work.

7. Be forced into layers of clothes (by my mother) before going outside.

8. Get attacked by a raccoon.

9. Get stuck on an escalator.

10. Get kicked down a slide by Santa.


My dislike of finals may be a little on the extreme side, but this pretty much sums it all up. Happy test-taking, folks.

Mistakes are something we all make, no matter how old we get. Most of the time, the mistakes we made are little and sometimes due to something out of our control. Yet, there are mistakes that are bigger than others. Personally, I have mistakes that I wish I could go back and undo. Here they are:

5 Things To Do That Are Better Than Writing A Paper

Don't waste your time trying to write that paper when there are so many more interesting things you could be doing.

Writing a paper is never fun and is rarely rewarding. The writer's block, the page requirement, be specific, but don’t summarize, make sure you fixed any grammatical errors, did you even use spellcheck? and analyze, analyze, analyze.

Papers can be a major pain. They take up so much time and effort that by the end of the process you hate yourself and you hate the professor for making life so difficult. Questions of your existence start roaming in your mind. Am I even cut out for college if I can’t write a single paper? Am I even capable of taking care of myself if I lack the energy to open my laptop and start typing?

sisters

I can barely remember back when I was the only child. Most would say it’s because it is extremely difficult to remember things as a toddler but I would say it's because I was bored until my sister came along. My mother always says how important the "sister bond" is and with every year that passes I realize how right she is. Instead of writing a novel about all of the wonderful things there are about having a sister I decided to list a few of them instead.

It is the time of our lives that we are beginning to enter the adult world and most of us, if not all of us, have no idea what we are doing. It's like starting a video game, but skipping the tutorial. We're all just running around aimlessly hoping we accidentally do something right that moves us along the right path. Now that graduation has just happened, or is right around the corner for some of us, it's time to start thinking about how we are going to take care of ourselves once we are on our own.
