Finals Week As Told By 'Parks And Recreation'

Most of us college students are about to embark on the miserable journey that is finals week. Sure, people warned us when they said it was going to be rough, but nothing could prepare us for the week of (and really, the week before) final exams. Man, I wish I could go back to having high school exams. But you don't know what you've got until it's gone, right? As we prepare to enter an incredibly stressful last few days, remember to treat yo self and enjoy some laughs with the help of Pawnee's best.

One week before finals.

It's far enough away that procrastination is still justifiable, right?

...who am I kidding, I'll be procrastinating for at least another six days. It'll be fine. I'm invincible.

The weekend before finals.

As your finals become closer, anxiety begins to set in...

But you know what? There's still time! We'll just pull an all nighter the day before!

The night before the test.

While motivation and confidence may be high at first...

...it'll begin to taper off pretty rapidly.

As a result, pep talks and encouragement become vital.

So much so that you may need to pick yourself up every once in a while

By the wee hours of the morning, you'll likely be losing your mind a bit.

Holy crap the test is in a few hours!

The morning of the test.

At this point, who knows how long you've been awake?

But good thing confidence is at an all time high!

Ehh, it'll be over soon enough.

During the test.

You'll feel a tad bit overwhelmed when you first get the final in front of you.

Your professor will likely throw some trick questions in there (good luck figuring them out).

You better pray there's no essay portion of the exam because after your all nighter, you may be just a smidge delirious.

And let's sure hope there's no minimum word count...

After the test.

You'll likely need a time out immediately after your exams.

But it's okay because you did it! You made it out barely alive! Now time to enjoy the next four months without class and homework!

But why do I have to leave all my friends now? Please don't make me leave them.

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.
