The finals are not what they seem.

11 Times "Twin Peaks" Understood Finals Week

Finals are rough, we all know it. The last week of the semester is just torture—so close, yet so far. How do you cope? Binge watch any show you haven't already watched on Netflix, obviously. The strange and wonderful world of David Lynch’s “Twin Peaks” provides an excellent distraction from the stress of everything on your to-do list.


1. Like when you stay up late studying and working on final presentations.

You just keep inhaling caffeine and sugar until everything is finished.


2. When you sleep through your alarm and realize you're way behind schedule.

What's the point of making a to-do list if you oversleep?

3. When nothing on the review sheet makes sense.

You're like, "Did we even learn this?"

4. When you didn't have time to eat because you had a million things to do.

When you finally get to eat and you're like, FINALLY.


5. When you've been sitting in the library for hours and haven't moved.

Your legs are asleep, too.


6. When you want to wing it because you're just so tired, but then you remember you need to keep your GPA up.

Although a quick nap probably wouldn't hurt.


7. When your professor is super vague about the instructions and exam content.

I just want to be prepared!


8. When you have your first coffee of the day.

Now you can function like a normal person.

9. When you ask your friends to help you study.

You offer to help them too; after all, what are friends for?


10. When you're still confused after studying.

Time to make use of your professor's office hours.


11. When you realize how close you are to being able to go home and being totally, 100% done with the semester, and the only thing standing in your way is a mountain of work:

Finals week is rough. I know it's hard to keep your stress levels low, but anxiety can make it harder to study and focus. So try to keep calm,remember to drink something other than coffee once in a while to stay hydrated, and if you're in need of a distraction, hit up Netflix and binge watch Twin Peaks.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
