We've made it: it's the end of April which means you're either in the middle of finals week or it's right around the corner. Spring finals are difficult enough to get through because the weather is nice meaning we all try to do the distracting "study outdoors" routine (where it's most likely we get anti-productive amounts of work done somehow), the possibilities of summer loom just around the corner and fill our distracted day-dreaming, and our brains are just about maxed-out after five long months of constant education with nothing more than a week-long spring break to give respite. Finals 2018 are an even bigger challenge for fans of the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU): we have to make the difficult decision about whether to take a study break and go see "Infinity War" when it is released, knowing that the heartbreak of potential deaths and plot points could incapacitate our studying for days, or whether to wait and hope that we avoid all spoilers until finals have safely passed. Either way, the anticipation of 10 years and 18 movies has built to its zenith as we awaited Infinity War. Here are 7 times when the Avengers perfectly described what it's like during finals week:

1. When the tests completely demolish you, your self-confidence, and you end up lying on the floor *literally* dying.

During finals week, every student can identify with Loki.

2. The never-ending snacking but without the will to live.

There is no joy in group eating during finals week: eat, digest, study. We all have that Captain America friend whose only joy comes from falling asleep at the table. I personally identify Tony Stark's look of utter bewilderment. (Let's face it, finals are basically the real-life equivalent of falling out of a door into outer space after saving the world from aliens.)

3. As if the constant beating wasn't enough, certain exams can completely knock you off your feet.


No matter how much you constantly study for an exam, this is exactly how it feels when you read the first question.

4. Wait... What?


If you haven't made this face while reviewing for your exams, you're either a lying to yourself about your intelligence or haven't studied at all.

5. When you think you finally understand the material.

If you think you understand it, you probably don't.

6. How you think grading goes.


After you've proudly submitted your exam (or simply submitted it out of resignation), it's easy to imagine that your professor has Star Lord's reaction to Iron Man's plan. And you are left with the dumbstruck, amused, dazed expression of Spiderman.

7. Cramming at its finest.


We are Iron Man.

Good luck to everyone taking finals! Just remember... summer is coming.

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

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.
