Finals Week Told By 'Gossip Girl'
www.popsugar.com

Hey stressed college students. I'm here to wish you the best of luck with your finals, that's if you can survive this week leading up to them. Anyway, you know you love me. XOXO, "Gossip Girl."

1. When your professors keep hitting up your email reminding you about the rapidly approaching final.

2. Then they inconsiderately tell you that the final will be cumulative.

3. You realize that there's no way to learn a semesters worth of material in one night and maybe you should have actually taken notes.

4. Causing you to admit that you may have blown off homework to go to the bar one too many times.

5. Then while you're crying on your papers, someone, who mistakes you as someone who cares, tells you that they have no finals.

6. The only place you've been in a week is the library, and its causing you to go insane.

7. You also haven't eaten, slept or showered in days.

8. At your lowest point, you consider dropping out and running from your problems.

9. But you decided that maybe it's time to get your life together.

10. You realize you've retained none of the information that you studied for hours.

11. At this point, you just wing it all because hey, C's get degrees.

12. You've finally made it through the worst week of the semester, or your life, and now you can finally have fun.

So while you're all probably crying and reevaluating your majors right now, let's take a break and listen to some advice from Gossip Girl. To quote the great Blair Waldorf, "Here's my advice: Have a little faith, and if that doesn't work, a lot of mimosas." Good luck and happy studying!

Don't waste your time trying to write that paper when there are so many more interesting things you could be doing.

Writing a paper is never fun and is rarely rewarding. The writer's block, the page requirement, be specific, but don’t summarize, make sure you fixed any grammatical errors, did you even use spellcheck? and analyze, analyze, analyze.

Papers can be a major pain. They take up so much time and effort that by the end of the process you hate yourself and you hate the professor for making life so difficult. Questions of your existence start roaming in your mind. Am I even cut out for college if I can’t write a single paper? Am I even capable of taking care of myself if I lack the energy to open my laptop and start typing?

sisters

I can barely remember back when I was the only child. Most would say it’s because it is extremely difficult to remember things as a toddler but I would say it's because I was bored until my sister came along. My mother always says how important the "sister bond" is and with every year that passes I realize how right she is. Instead of writing a novel about all of the wonderful things there are about having a sister I decided to list a few of them instead.

It is the time of our lives that we are beginning to enter the adult world and most of us, if not all of us, have no idea what we are doing. It's like starting a video game, but skipping the tutorial. We're all just running around aimlessly hoping we accidentally do something right that moves us along the right path. Now that graduation has just happened, or is right around the corner for some of us, it's time to start thinking about how we are going to take care of ourselves once we are on our own.

If you’re anything like me, you love a good cup of coffee. My coffee always comes from Starbucks; I refuse to drink it from anywhere else. Over the years, it’s become one of my biggest addictions.

It can be overwhelming at times and it’s important to take a step a back and calmly think things over. Maybe gain some perspective. The following aren’t foolproof tips and may not apply to you, but I was able to find success with them (hope you do too!)
