14 Things To Get You Through Finals Week
Buzzfeed

Finals week is coming and it might be natural to want to scream and run away, but have no fear I can help. Don't you worry cupcake, you will survive this unbearable week if you just utilize these fourteen things.

1. Coffee

Finals week is an excuse to get multiple venti iced coffees. It's definitely a must have to make all-nighters or even all day-ers.


2. Netflix

It's almost mandatory to take a break during finals week (or any week) to binge watch shows. I personally recommend "Supernatural", "Gilmore Girls", or "Orange Is The New Black".

3. Actually studying

I know you don't want to do it. No one wants to do it. But, if you don't you are almost definitely going to fail. So suck it up and look at those pages for at least ten minutes.

4. Study groups

Study groups are very beneficial because you realize that none of you know what the hell you're doing.


5. Shia Lebeouf memes

One of my best friends Emily constantly sends inspirational Shia memes to our chat and it makes my life. I suggest you do the same with your friends.

6. Memes in general

Memes are a gift from heaven above. I don't think anyone can look at a meme and not laugh.

7. Lots and lots of food

Food is also a great thing sent from the heaven above. When you are happy, you can eat. When you are sad, you can eat. When you are stressed out, you can eat. You get where I'm going with this.


8. Friends

Your friends will always be there when you need them, and if they aren't then you need some new friends. Friends help each other get through finals. (also a binge-worthy show to watch).


9. Family

Family is the friends you can't choose. However, they will always be there for support.


10. Making up songs to keep yourself sane like Marshall Erickson.

I don't know how many times I've sung "I need to memorize this page and I will get myself a cookie."


11. Music

There's nothing that The Beatles, Kendrick, or Maroon 5 can't help, not even finals.


12. Sleep

I can hear you laughing through the screen, but seriously you will feel better and more relaxed if you get at least six hours of sleep.


13. The promise that summer is soon

It's almost here, you can do it.


14. Sports

No matter if you like to watch baseball, softball, hockey, etc it will help distract you from endless self-doubt.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

Whether you met your new love interest online, through mutual friends, or another way entirely, you'll definitely want to know what you're getting into. I mean, really, what's the point in entering a relationship with someone if you don't know whether or not you're compatible on a very basic level?

Consider these 21 questions to ask in the talking stage when getting to know that new guy or girl you just started talking to:

Challah vs. Easter Bread: A Delicious Dilemma

Is there really such a difference in Challah bread or Easter Bread?

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.
