12 Stages Of Finals Week As Told By Dogs
Doge

It's about that time again, the moment we have all been hoping would never arrive, the worst week of the entire year — it's finals week my friends. Those two words alone bring tears to my eyes and if you're anything like me, tears will be overflowing from your eyes all week. Here's to a well-deserved study/sanity break.

1. I'm smart, I've made decent grades all semester... I've got this!

2. You evaluate how much studying is to be done and create your to-do lists.

3. After you read what all is on your to-do list, the panic begins.

4. Realizing that it’s a cumulative final and not remembering anything before spring break.

5. Rethinking your major and this whole college thing altogether. Is it too late to pick a questionable alternative? Then you remember you can't dance to save your life.

6. Sleep..I need sleep.

7. Showing up at your professor's office hours to try and have them curve your grade because the studying just isn't happening.

8. Time to turn to coffee

9. Spending more hours in the library than you have the entire year in this week alone.

10. Seeing the light at the end of the tunnel because right after this is summer.

11. Stress eating is at an all-time high.

12. The college is constantly sending e-mails on effective study habits which does not include last minute procrastination and all nighters but running away from my problems is easier.

It contains the snacks and water bottle I need to survive long days on campus. It also contains the "in-case" items that help put my mind at rest if I forgot something from home: extra hair ties, masks, and that backup-backup snack. With so much in my backpack important to me and my life on campus, it is no wonder that I can get apprehensive about it when it is not with me or in my line of sight. And that makes me wonder.

When Sony announced that Venom would be getting a stand-alone movie, outside of the Tom Holland MCU Spider-Man films, and intended to start its own separate shared universe of films, the reactions were generally not that kind. Even if Tom Hardy was going to take on the role, why would you take Venom, so intrinsically connected to Spider-Man's comic book roots, and remove all of that for cheap action spectacle?
