The Best 'Yaks On Finals Week

As finals quickly approach, college students are scrambling to finish projects, study for exams, and if you’re lucky, get a few hours of sleep. Instead of doing the logical thing and tackling these problems, many of us turn to Netflix, binge-eating, and my personal favorite – Yik Yak. Here’s a few yaks to let you know you are not alone in this impending finals struggle:


“On the second week of Xmas my teachers gave to me: 5 all-nighters, 4 hours of crying, 3 mental breakdowns, 2 thoughts of dropout, & a month of anxiety.”

“Study tip: Laminate your notes so your tears roll off.”

“Finals week got me grinding like freshman year homecoming.”

“Moment of silence for all the guys who thought they’d get laid finals week – she wants the A way more than she wants the D.”

“At this point, I wish I went to Hogwarts.”

“My grades are telling me to be a trophy wife, but my looks are telling me to work harder.”

“Mom: ‘Did you get enough sleep?’ Me: ‘Sometimes my eyes close when I sneeze.’”

“That moment in an exam when everyone is using a ruler to draw something, and you don’t know why.”

“The number 69 stopped being funny when it became my exam average.”

“Cumulative finals are like fighting the exes. What’s done is done. Why bring up the past? Let it f***ing go.”

“My biggest problem finals week is deciding to put Kahlua in my coffee or vodka in my Redbull.”

“When your classmates are worried that they’ll get a B+ instead of an A-, and you’re just like ‘yoooooo I’m just tryna pass.’”

“Curves on women are nice, but curves on final exams are better.”

“’Twas the night before finals, and all through the town, not a f**k could be given, not a f**k could be found.”

(P.S. Good luck on all your finals – y’all will do great!)

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.
