Believe me, as a senior ready to not only be done with this semester but college in general, I understand your pain.

You're tired, you're frustrated, and if you have to sit quietly at your desk while your professor throws YET ANOTHER last minute assignment at you, you are going to scream. Going home will be it's own kind of torture, depending on the political leanings of you and the fam, but at least you'll be able to sleep for a bit to try to undo the torture you've put your body through getting this semester wrapped up. I know it's daunting, but I promise you'll get through this.

Here are 10 things to keep in mind as you knock this semester out:

1. You Haven't Given Up Yet

It may not be pretty, and you may be half-dead by the time your last final wraps, but you haven't thrown in the towel and that is its own kind of miracle.

2. Your Sparkling Sense Of Humor

Likely, you've reached the point in the semester where you have to laugh so you don't cry. That's a strength! If you can just keep laughing, you'll be able to power through then cry on the way home.

3. And If The Humor Doesn't Work...

At least the soul-crushing rage will help fuel you in a daze towards the end of Hell Week. You'll come out of it not quite sure what happened, but at least you won't remember all the late nights!

4. We're All On This Runaway Train Together

It's not fun, it's not pretty, hell, you're not sure this kind of torture is even legal, but you're not alone. For every person crying in the library, there's at least five more within a three yard radius thinking a resounding "Same."

5. You'll Keep Pushing For That Bliss Of Turning In The Last Assignment

As awful as it is, there's no better nap than the first one after everything is done. You'll wake up feeling slightly more human, and the world starts to look friendly again.

6. Eventually You'll Hit The Apathy Stage

Sure, you're a paragraph shy of page count, but you need to sleep before you start hallucinating. Yeah, that presentation didn't go as well as it could have but you didn't show up looking like Death either.

7. And After Apathy Comes The "Everything Is Hilarious" Phase

Giggling your way through one last all-nighter brings us back to the idea that your humor will be your saving grace during this process. Seriously, don't let yourself get so bogged down you can't laugh at the epic typos that happen at 3 a.m.

8. And Really, There's Always A Back-Up Plan

That crappy Calc final won't matter when you're the new Monarch of the Taco Bell Kingdom!

9. Don't Be Afraid To Be Your Own Best Cheerleader

You've got this, and you know it! There's no shame in fluffing up your ego a little to help get through this final push to freedom.

10. This Too Shall Pass (And So Will You!)

Finals AREN'T forever, and your life won't end when they do. There's a whole world (not to mention a bed) out there waiting for you on the other side. You CAN do this!
