Its that time of year again....finals are this week and if you're like me, you've waited until 48 hours before to start studying. In a perfect world, we'd all be making flash cards, highlighting the shit out of our books, and staying up till the wee hours of the morning to cram more information into our already overstuffed brains. But, thats not always the case. Most of us are looking for excuses not to study.

Here are some ways to procrastinate studying for those finals.

1. Clean your bedroom
2. Rearrange your bedroom
3. Watch a Christmas movie
4. Rearrange it again, because you don’t like it
5. Do some laundry
6. Go for a walk
7. Go for a run (if you’re like, athletic)
8. Shop online
9. Watch YouTube videos of puppies
10. Cook a meal
11. Or in my case, learn to cook
12. Clean out your closet
13. Cry about how unprepared you are
14. Take a nap
15. Wake up, fall asleep again

36. Research unemployment rate for college dropouts
37. Plan your imaginary wedding

42. Stalk everyone you know, their cousins, and their cousin’s girlfriends on social media
43. Write an Odyssey article (wink wink)
44. Calculate the lowest possible grade you can get on your final, and still pass
45. Take a new selfie
46. Take 58 photos until its just right
47. Delete them all and cry
