Doesn't it seem like exams are an eternal battle that only becomes more and more difficult? Or better yet, a ferocious hydra that grows multiple new heads every time you cut off one? And each new head is more deadly than the last? It is as if we are being constantly tested to the end of our willpower. You've had enough and it's not even halfway over. So for those of us who are struggling, here are some of the thoughts and emotions that cross our minds when we are preparing for one of many battles in this endless war!

Thinking about your naivete when you were a child and used to complain about tests in high school puts you into fits of laughter

You wonder if making it through this battle alive is an actual possibility

You nostalgically remember those joyous days when you had an actual life

The thought of sleep fills you with such anticipation you can hardly stand it

As if all of this isn’t bad enough, your parents don’t let you breathe unless breathing involves inhaling your textbooks

You truly believe that this is the end of every hope and dream you've ever had

All you want is a helping hand during this difficult time

All you really want is to say “screw it” and go have fun, except your conscience decides to be a complete buzzkill

You pray to the lord to release you from this curse

Your every thought is about how you will celebrate when you are released from this prison

Until you’re needed for the next exam
