Emotional Stages Of Finals In Gifs

Finals are coming, and they bring out the worst in all of us. I can’t say that I know anyone who enjoys studying, emphasis on the "dying," or taking finals. Honestly, they are horrible. Describing your feelings about finals is hard. Well, not really. You kind of just want to die a little inside, but what exactly do you feel? There is more than just that little bit of dying inside. Perhaps maybe there are GIFs that can explain your emotional stages before, during, and after finals? Here they are in order, of course.

1. When you find out that you actually have a final and have to start studying. Like, now. Oh, and may I add that the final is tomorrow!


2. When you attempt to study, but literally can't because there are no study guides in college, so you have no idea what to even look at.


3. Then you think you should start to focus and actually study.


4. But you just can't, and you are also getting really hungry. Eating is definitely one way to procrastinate successfully.


5. You then begin to cry a little and drink your pain away (grape juice if you aren't 21, of course).


6. You sleep it off and pray that the final will be easy.


7. You spot the professor when you walk into class and have some violent thoughts.


8. You try to be confident before he/she passes out the exam because that is your best bet at this point.


9. You get the exam and immediately know you did not study enough.


10. How you feel about the exam. Hint: It is the opposite of love.


11. You come to the realization that finals are horrible and don't make sense and you don't know why anyone would do this to you.


12. The multiple choice section comes, and you think, "This will be easy!"


13. Time is ticking and you realize there is only five minutes left to finish the exam!


14. You somehow remember everything on the exam!


15. And then you sort of feel OK. You feel like you may have possibly maybe done something right.


16. Finally, you get the final grade back and see that you actually did somewhat decent for a final exam.


That final was not as bad as you thought it would be. As I have learned, we tend to freak out and stress about things too much. We know what is on the final. We have been learning about the material all semester. We freak out, we stress, and we study until our brains are fried. But it is all okay in the end. So, it is okay to freak out. It is part of finals. However, keep in mind that it is almost over! You are going home soon for an entire month. Just get through these next couple of weeks, and you will be absolutely fine!

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

Whether you met your new love interest online, through mutual friends, or another way entirely, you'll definitely want to know what you're getting into. I mean, really, what's the point in entering a relationship with someone if you don't know whether or not you're compatible on a very basic level?

Consider these 21 questions to ask in the talking stage when getting to know that new guy or girl you just started talking to:

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.

Top 10 Reasons My School Rocks!

Why I Chose a Small School Over a Big University.

I was asked so many times why I wanted to go to a small school when a big university is so much better. Don't get me wrong, I'm sure a big university is great but I absolutely love going to a small school. I know that I miss out on big sporting events and having people actually know where it is. I can't even count how many times I've been asked where it is and I know they won't know so I just say "somewhere in the middle of Wisconsin." But, I get to know most people at my school and I know my professors very well. Not to mention, being able to walk to the other side of campus in 5 minutes at a casual walking pace. I am so happy I made the decision to go to school where I did. I love my school and these are just a few reasons why.
