Finals Week As Told By Ron Swanson

"I can do what I want." -Ron

Finals Week As Told By Ron Swanson
BDCwire

Finals week is upon me, though it may be weeks away from you. Ron Swanson is still crazy relatable no matter what context.

1. When you remember to eat all three meals in one day

Or even one meal, for that matter. I'm considering setting a timer on my phone to tell me to eat lunch and dinner.

2. When you are so overwhelmed but realize that breaking down shows that you are giving in to weakness

Conceal, don't feel, don't let it show.

3. When a professor asks what your favorite part of the semester was in their GE class

Nobody wants to be in a GE class. Why would we enjoy anything about it.

4. When you have to decode what a professor is trying to have you write for an essay prompt

Of course being a mental processor does not help when writing an essay in the matter of a final class period, but it gives you a chance to make of it what you want to.

5. When you have fallen ill but do not want to accept your fate

Ain't nobody got time for that.

6. When your love for meat and protein is strong

Vegan bacon. Why would you even think of such a thing. I need meat to give me energy for the day.

7. When you feel like you have done all the studying you can

I will tell myself when I know all that I am supposed to know.

8. When a friend presents you with a gift (preferably coffee)

Tears of joy from feeling loved are justifiable.

9. When you failed to notice that your study music has changed over the past few days

Although, sometimes nature sounds are better to study to than lyrical music.

10. When you realize how you were able to cope with a class you did not like all semester

Wanting to get a good grade in a class and then never having to take it again is actually a great way to work. Plus, you can tear apart the class and the professor in the class evaluation.

11. When you turn in your last final of the semester

It is finished. It is all turned in. It is done. The end.

12. When someone tells you that everything will be okay when, in fact, everything will not be okay

Don't you dare give me a hug if you don't understand the same pain I'm going through.

13. When all you want to do is eat food and study

Study sessions are wonderful, but lots of people can be a distraction.

14. When your professor says that the final period is not required

Not mandatory? Okay, I'll spend my time sleeping or studying for another final.

15. And, finally, when everything is done and you see the mess you've made

I believe the word I have written on my whiteboard at the end of everything is "DIE".

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.

Whether you met your new love interest online, through mutual friends, or another way entirely, you'll definitely want to know what you're getting into. I mean, really, what's the point in entering a relationship with someone if you don't know whether or not you're compatible on a very basic level?

Consider these 21 questions to ask in the talking stage when getting to know that new guy or girl you just started talking to:

Challah vs. Easter Bread: A Delicious Dilemma

Is there really such a difference in Challah bread or Easter Bread?

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. 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.
