The least jolly week of the year has finally arrived at colleges everywhere. Finals are upon us and no one could more accurately describe how we are all feeling than the least merry man in the world, The Grinch. Find out if you relate to how The Grinch is feeling about final exams this semester!

When your professor tells you to start studying three weeks in advance.

Looking at the names of people who are your options for study buddies.

Stress eating because of how terribly overwhelmed you are

Realizing you haven't seen your friends in ages because you have been in the library for three days straight.

When it feels like the entire world is against you and you can't get anything right.

Trying to dress for success right before the exam.

Trying to make a study schedule but finding yourself completely overbooked.


Trying to steal your friends' elaborate and impressive study guides.

Getting two questions right on the study guide and convincing yourself that you will ace the test.

Seeing your friends that have already finished their finals and are leaving early for winter break.


The mini-panic attack you have right before you go to sleep the night before an exam.

Looking at the first question on your exam.

Realizing that you've forgotten everything that you've studied for the past week in the middle of your test.

When your professor stares at you during the exam and destroys the shred of self-confidence you had left.

Leaving the test knowing you failed, but at least you have your health.

Always remember that even The Grinch had a happy ending to his story, just like you will survive these finals. And if all really does crash and burn, you could always go live in a cave on the top of Whoville!

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.

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.
