Remember the first of the semester when you had so much free time? I know, no one wants to talk about the unfortunate aspects of the end of the semester. But, before getting to the best of times, we all go through the cramming and stress on the road to finals that seem never-ending. Fortunately, we have the cast of How I Met Your Mother to walk us through it.

1. Checking your grades each hour on the hour to see if any new updates have been posted.

Everyone knows that feeling in the pit of your stomach when your browser decides to load at its slowest rate when you are about to check your grades; refreshing Safari until you are able to see whatever it is you are looking for.

2. Convincing yourself you have time to relax

This is the ultimate downfall. You are sitting in the library. You make the mistake of checking social media and seeing all that you could be doing. You tell yourself you will study later. You won't.

3. That feeling after a night out when you should have been hitting the books

We have all been there. You could have spent your whole night preparing for exams and getting ahead on work, but you decide against your better judgment to take a night off.

4. The mental breakdowns

Mental breakdowns are apart of every college student's weekly routine. However, mine frequent Sunday evenings.

5. When your professors insinuate that you don't need a final review if you've been in class all semester

This is hands down the worse. Because we sat in a class a few times a week, we are experts though, right?

6. Accepting your fate

There comes a point where you sit back and consider the studying you have already done, and if you don't know it by now, you never will.

7. Finishing your finals, and still having a little morale left to spare.

You know, when you call your parents and tell them you're finally done and you expect them to praise you in the highest for doing the bare minimum.

Getting the end of the semester and finals week may be difficult, but in the end, it is all worth it for the nice break awaiting us. Now, if only we had the cast of How I Met Your Mother alongside us in every scenario.
