With finals week coming up everyone is getting their last minute work in and having the last week of fun before finals come crashing down on them. Unfortunately, for English majors, this definitely isn't the case. Most English majors either have finals week a week early or two weeks of finals. And that makes for some really unhappy college students.

1. When are of your friends are outside enjoying the beautiful weather but you're inside the library because you have a 10-page final paper due on the last day of class.

2. When you have four portfolios, three projects and two papers, to do in the last week of class.

3. When you realize you aren't going to have any time to read the book that your final research paper is on.

4. When one of your professors wants you to come in during your final exam period.

5. But you get there and it's an end of the semester party, with snacks!

7. After a sympathetic friend brings you coffee to your bed.
