May. May is the start of summer. May is a beautiful sunny month. May is the month that most college students jump for joy for, but first we have to pass our finals. We have to study and not get distracted by the Netflix show we are watching or the low amount of food we have left in our dorm room. We have to start thinking rationally and clearly when finals week comes up. How do we, college students, find a solution to finals week? Well we survive off of caffeine, four hours of sleep and the joy of realizing that summer vacation is right around the corner.
1. Coffee is our number one friend without it how do we keep our eyes open?
We need all the sugar we can get for finals week. We need to be alert when we are taking the final.
2. We study, we study in advance, sleep is for the weak, who needs sleep when we can study 24/7.
We turn into Sheldon Cooper Type A during finals week.
But this is really our solution:
When you're a professional all-nighter, you can absorb the study material through you're sleep professionally.
3. We email our professors numerous times to be productive and this is their response.
Yes, but professor I have already gone through the power points ten thousand and three hundred times.
4. We make room for socialization, but we always come back to studying for finals.
Studying can be fun if you read in a really humorous voice or if you have some nice Mozart or Beethoven classics on in the background.
5. We motivate ourselves before every final.
The motivation becomes real and to be truthful, motivation is one key to success.
6. We block out the loud noises outside our window, so we can concentrate on our studies.
For the people outside of my dorm, this one is specifically for you.
7. We pray for a passing grade.
All we want is to pass our classes with flying colors. Please, Lord, help make our dreams come true.
8. We are so positive that we passed our first final!
I think this gif sums up a normal college student quite well after our first final or after finals week.
9. After we passed one final, we take a break.
Then its back to that all-nighter!
That gif is me through thick and thin. Always working, always worried about school. Sometimes I really envy Type B people.
10. When we are finished with all of our finals and can officially start summer vacation!
We get as excited as Taylor Swift at an awards show!
