You have A LOT of thoughts running through your head while you're taking a test. It's like your brain won't shut up and let you concentrate to allow you to pass. And now that winter break is approaching, tons of us are in the middle of finals week where we stay up, cry, drink a gallon coffee, think of the meaning of life and try to feel like we have our lives together. If you've ever thought about what you think while you're taking a final, it's actually crazy how far your mind will wonder. One second you're defining a principle or theory of some sort and then you're wondering what song was stuck in your head last week that you HAVE to remember that exact moment. But this is just the joys of being a student. Here are just 85 of the many thoughts that may go through your mind while taking your next final!

1. Alright, about to enter the room where it happens-

2. I'VE GOT TO BE IN THE ROOM WHERE IT HAPPENS.

3. Yeah, this is not the right time to start singing hamilton songs

4. What am I talking about, there's always time.

5. Okay, gotta sit in my usual seat, cause I'm superstitious like that

6. Wait, hold up who is that in my seat

7. Is this girl serious? It's the last day of class and she decides to sit in the seat I've been sitting in all year

8. What if because I'm not sitting there I don't get a good grade?

9. Jesus, I need to calm down

10. Just gonna pop a squat in this random seat, It's fine. I'm not salty at all.

11. Let's take out a pen

12. Crap, did I forget a pen.

13. Should I ask the person next to me?

14. I'm pretty sure this person hates me

15. Even though I've never talked to them before so idk why I think that

16. OVERTHINKING EVERYTHING IS FUN

17. Okay there's 5 minutes left until the teacher comes, let's try and learn 3 months of subject matter into that time slot

18. Maybe this won't be on the test, so I'll skip that notecard

19. I'll remember this, no need to worry

20. Dear god the teacher just came in

21. this is it

22 Yeah, yeah yeah, we understand how test's work. Let's get ready to rumble.

23. Bro, we need to get this show on the road or I will forget everything I just tried to teach myself in the last 24 hours

24. Just hand out the test please

25. I'M FORGETTING FACTS BY THE SECOND.

26. The test is coming down my row

27. This is actually happening

28. YOU GOT THIS HONEY

29. Oh my god what is my name?

30. It could literally be the year 3000, I have no idea what the date is.

31. Jk it's the year of the 2016 election. I couldn't forget the year if I tried.

32. Alright let's just peruse the whole test, flip some pages to get a feel on how long this will take

33. There's like 6 pages here

34. AN ESSAY? LORD SAVE ME.

35. Multiple choice is my savior

36. But hold up, number 6, 7 and 8 were B, and now number 9 is considerably B. That can't be right.

37. I'll choose c

38. C stands for correct

39. I wonder if anyone else is concerned about not knowing what's on this test

40. I mean I know most of it which is good I guess

41. Should probably know it all though...

42. I studied 8 hours and still feels like I know nothing

43. I luv learning <3

44. okay focus lex, you have only an hour left.

45. Okay things are moving smoothly, I think I'll do pretty good.

46. What if I just think I'm doing really well? I could actually be bombing this entire final

47. MOM SAYS BE POSITIVE.

48. Will I really ever use this in real life though?

49. Probably not

50. Why is this girl looking at my paper? Girl trust me, I don't know what I'm talking about so we're both about to be on a sinking ship

51. WOAHHHH, WE'RE HALFWAY THEREEEE. WOAHHH LIVIN' ON A PRAYER...that I get an A.

52. Jesus take the wheel, I now have to write the essay

53. Maybe if I write bigger it will fill up the page faster and make it look like i had a lot more to say.

54. Am I a horrible person?

55. What is the meaning of life?

56. What should I eat when I get home?

57. OH damn! I'm gonna order some chicken fingers to celebrate.

58. The celebration of completing the final, not so much if I got an A or not.

59. Yeah, I am a horrible person.

60. My hand is actually about to fall off. What a sad way to lose it; by writing an essay that sounds like gibberish.

61. Why am I tilting my head? Does my brain think I'll come up with something more thoughtful if I hold my head at 45 degrees?

62. Wait, why is that guy handing in his test already?

63. We've only been here for 40 minutes.

64. I wish I studied that hard

65. Or maybe he didn't know anything either and just decided to hand it in.

66. Now I feel like I have to rush

67. That reminds me of watching whiplash last week, ARE YOU RUSHING OR DRAGGING?

68. This test is fletcher and I am crying like Andrew

69. I bet if I said that joke out loud no one would laugh because it's true.

70. Such a good movie, maybe I'll watch that while I eat my chicken fingers

71. At least 4 people have handed in their test already so I feel like it's okay that I hand mine in now.

72. Let's just flip through the pages, make it look like I'm really interested in re-checking my answers

73. Half of them are probably wrong

74. The loudness of this paper shuffling is unreal. It sounds like I'm flipping parchment paper in a noise canceling room.

75. Don't want anyone to think of me as "the annoying paper shuffler"

76. It's time to just hand it in already cause nothing is coming to this lil ole' noggin no more

77. Awe, the teacher has such a hopeful smile on his face but what he doesn't know is that it will melt right off of his face while he grades that paper

78. I'm gonna death glare the girl who took my sacred seat

79. Just kidding, I don't want to be mean

80. I'll brew in anger on the inside.

81. Literally gonna run out the door when I get my stuff, can't be in this room where I made bad decisions any longer.

82. Why are these girls both saying they got B for number 9.

83. It was definitely C.

84. Or was it?

85. I should have studied that notecard.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
