To Every College Student Stressing Over Finals

Don't stress so much over finals you overwork yourself.

To Every College Student Stressing Over Finals

In This Article:

It's the time of the semester that every college student hates, finals week. Where you have to memorize every little detail that you learned over the past couple of months and you start to stress yourself over this. Remember these things;

1. Grades don't define you

Everyone is shooting for the best grades possible, but just get the grades you need to get your degree. Do the best you can even if your best is a C

2. Take Care of yourself

Make sure you get the sleep you need, there aren't as many hours in the day as we wish and we all want to study for as long as possible but make sure you take care of your body.

3. Your Parents will still love you

You're pursuing something for yourself and your parents will be proud of you no matter what. Take a break, everyone loves you no matter what

4. Stay healthy

I know, we all want to just go out to eat because it's the easiest and quickest thing to do. But the late night Mcdonalds or Taco Bell run won't be good for your body

5. Getting help isn't a bad thing

Getting help isn't a bad thing, it shows your professor that you care. Even if you get help with a professor or a private tutor, there's nothing wrong with any of it.

6. Get out of the library or bedroom

Don't just sit in the library the whole time. You need to get out of the library and do something for yourself. Don' let finals ruin your time being young.

7. Break is coming

You'll have that break soon so don't overdo yourself during this week. There will always be more semesters and making sure you're okay is worth more than overwhelming your body.

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.
