It's November, and you don't know how that happened, but you do know that you need to brace for the academic windstorm that's coming the same way you braced for El Nino: by hunkering down and getting through it. Either you come through it pretty much unscathed, or your grades are wrecked. Either way, Jennifer Lawrence, the most relatable actress to date, knows how you feel. Some situations can only be described with her face; see below.

1. When your teacher hurls four papers on you in one week because he/she realized they didn't know how close it was to the end of the year either.

Suddenly you must now map out every minute of the next four days to figure out how you're going to swing finishing all these papers in a decent manner while still sleeping. Life seems like kind of a hot mess right now, because until you figure out your brand new and not really improved sleep schedule, it is.

2. When you learn that half of the information for one class was saved till the very end so that your teacher could put it on the final. "'Page 100 till the end of the book are the final material. Learn it."

This, surely, was not how the syllabus went.

3. By the grace of God, someone gets a clue that they assigned too many projects due at the same time, so they cancel one.

You now have time to go get coffee! Run!

4. When you go to a teacher's office hours and they actually show up/listen to you.

At least you're here during the most essential time of the semester, Professor.

5. You're definitely at the point where you're counting how many classes you have until winter break, but when you check, there's still too many to function.

That probably won't change until you're completely done.

6. There's a miracle that happens, and it is a miracle. Someone in your group project pulled through.

It was worth so much, and you didn't have to do it alone. Hello, new best friend.

7. Your stress has caused stress-eating. You tell yourself it's because you've been running everywhere to get things done, but either way, the majority of the day you look a lot like this:

Desperate times call for desperate measures and a lot of sugar.

8. It's 4 a.m. and you've been at the library for hours. After multiple energy drinks, you're getting weak. You realize it's time to go home and regain some of your sanity through sleep.

You've got a B+ in this class and the paper isn't even worth that much. Take the L.

9. It's after Thanksgiving break and you've got a week till finals. It's do or die. Right now, your procrastination habits are causing a premature death of some sort.

This is the time where you truly find out how great or terrible you are at bullshitting.

10. Just in time for finals, your friends remember you're the journalism major. They come flocking to you.

It's like a ticking time bomb, but unlike your freshmen year, you've learned the magic words.

11. The teacher that's been pushing you all semester reviews your final project and realizes he did underestimate you.

Worship at my feet as you watch my beautiful iMovie transitions, peasant.

12. In the next class, high off of your success, you get a little too cocky. You present your paper/project that you definitely spent not enough time on, and your demise looks like this:

You can't win em all, bud.

13. Finals are over. You can have a real, coordinated social life again.

Time to go home and ring in the holidays with your family, my friends.
