It's that time of the semester again. Finals week. It's probably one of most stressful weeks of the semester for many, depending on how many finals one has to take this week. Well here's a rundown of some possible scenarios that could happen this week.
Having Two Finals In One Day
If you have two finals in one day, I wish you the best! Taking one is already draining enough. How do you make yourself feel confident about both rather than just being confident about one?
Being Late To A Final
Just imagine those looks of disappointment you will get from your professor and classmates if you walked into the classroom late for a final. Don't even risk it! Set as many alarms as you can if you have an early final. Make sure you give yourself enough time to get ready and to eat before. You need all the time allotted to finish that exam! Don't play yourself.
Seeing Everyone Turn In Their Final and You're Not Even Halfway Done Yet
I get scared when this happens during regular exams so when it happens during finals I freak out even more. You suddenly lose focus and wonder what is taking you so long because you didn't finish early like they all did. But pause for a second. Maybe they rushed through the final. You're taking your time with it, so you're probably doing well!
Walking Out of a Final Feeling Like You Aced It
You're feeling like a million bucks! Time to celebrate! Oops you can't because you have another final to worry about the next day :(. Well unless that was your last final. Hoping you all will feel like this with at least one or two of your finals but if you felt like this for all of them then that would be even better.
Feeling Like You Failed a Final
You might feel like this with a final in your least favorite class. When we feel like we didn't do our best, we automatically prepare for the worst. If you're hard on yourself like me, you may think right away that you failed. It's pretty hard to get out of that mindset. Then, we end up doing much better than we thought. Stay positive! It's not the end. Of course you final factors into your grade but it doesn't reflect your entire grade. Think about all of the hard work you put in this semester!
A Bunch of Unhealthy Eating
Finals week is the definition of "treat yo self." Enduring all this stress will probably make you prone to unhealthy eating habits because you don't have to time to eat well-balanced meals and then you may want to treat yourself with desserts after exams.
Thinking About Reuniting With Your Friends During Break Like
Okay maybe you won't say exactly that but wouldn't be funny if you did? Think about it. Lol. During finals week, think about the light at the end of the tunnel, which is being able to go home and possibly relax for a month, depending on your plans. Make sure you plan something fun!
Happy Finals Week Everyone!
