In honor of another beloved finals week approaching, a much-needed study break is in order. Last week's De-Stress had its fair share of adorable animals to unwind with, but my personal favorite was left out. Alas, these fine friends may be illegal in California (I vote we all sign a petition to change that), but they sure have a way of being so darn cute you can't help but smile. And this week, laughter really is the best medicine. So sit back, put your notes aside, and grant yourself 5 minutes of pure bliss brought to you by some seriously irrestible hedgehogs.
1. Dead Week brings on a series of mixed emotions.
Determination and motivation, that's the mantra for the week, my friend.
2. Mid-week, you feel the sudden urge to hide from all responsibilities.

3. When you be searching for a distraction 'cause anything is better than crackin' open the books.
Snapchat? Absolutely. Instagram? I can't miss an opportunity for such a easy caption! #finalslife Cleaning my room? Even that's better than finishing a study guide right now.
4. All this procrastinating is starting to get to you.
I really have to get down to business. I think I can. I think I can.
5. That empowering moment when you finally commit to yourself, you got this.
Back off, mere plebs. No one can stop me now.
6. You start on that paper that's due in 7 hours.
This is basically vomit on a page, but here goes nothing.
7. Your intensified coffee addiction gets taken to a new level.
Espresso haze fer dayz.
8. After hours of staring at a laptop screen, you start looking a little like this.

Are my eyes always this wild?
9. Dead Week ends too quickly.
Allow me to just brace myself for the oncoming storm.
10. But you head into your tests with a bit of confidence and flair.
I'm about to teach this test one heck of a lesson.
11. When it's over, you're about to declare mutiny.
THE PROF SWORE IT WOULD ONLY BE LECTURE MATERIAL!!!
12. You decide to forget it, because it's just not worth your energy anymore.
Get this sour taste outta my mouth already.
13. After your last test, you realize you're freeeeeeeeeeeeee!
Oh, sweet, sweet independence!
14. You imagine how hard you're gonna go tonight.
Imma let my freak fly.
15. But really you just end up doing this.
Can't. Keep. My eyes. Open. Any. Longer.
16. You finish off the week on a high note.

The end is in sight. ~Now get back to studying~
