No amount of therapy puppies, therapy pigs (our school did try this), or even spoonfuls of Nutella can save you from the inevitable all-consuming stress that is midterms or finals. Someone decided that it would be a grand idea to make college students turn in all of our longest papers and most important tests during the same week, so we're all paying the price. The good news is that when you feel weird and sleep deprived, everyone understands, even the cast of "New Girl."

1. You try to secure a spot in a good study group.

2. You give yourself some much-needed pep talks.

3. You find out that one of your finals is scheduled for Saturday.

4. Your teacher decides to make a paper due on the same day as another exam.

5. You reach your breaking point.

6. Your friend tries to help you calm down.

7. It doesn't work.

8. You start making acronyms for everything.

This is a fantastic study tactic. I highly recommend it.

9. Wearing presentable clothing becomes optional.

10. You decide to order Domino's in the middle of the night.

It tastes better than ever.

11. You try to go work off some of the stress (and stress-eating calories) with a few burpees.

12. It becomes really hard to keep a positive attitude.

13. The lack of sleep makes you irrationally emotional.

14. Someone asks you how ready you feel for the exam.

15. The day has come.

16. You walk in to take the test.

17. You consider making a quick exit.

18. Then you get into the test and start to remember what you studied.

19. But, you did not remember quite everything.

20. You walk out of your last exam victoriously.

You did it. Congratulations! Now, go get some sleep.
