Finals Week As Told By Stranger Things

"I am not gonna stop looking for him until I find him!" - Joyce, but also you searching for your sanity.

Finals Week As Told By Stranger Things

Finals week can be just as scary as the upside down. Your obsession with coffee can be compared to Eleven's love for Eggos and your demogorgon might come in the form of a cumulative exam. Don't fret though, you're not alone. Your friends from Stranger Things know what you're going through, and friends don't lie.

1. The calm before the storm.

You know, that feeling you get before you realize how many finals you have to take. When times were much simpler.

2. The late night study sessions.

Something that I'm sure all of your friends would say after seeing you hunched over a computer at 4 o'clock in the morning. You've gotta do what you've gotta do to get that good grade. Oh, and #RIPBarb.

3. Waking up for your 8 AM final.

Exams are already brutal, but nothing makes finals worse than waking up early to take them. If your face looks like El's, it's justified.

4. Finishing that ten page essay.

Go, you! Your sources are accounted for, the format is perfect, and the paragraphs flow from one point to another. Party it up like Steve and Nancy!

5. The breakdown.

This could happen during that late night study session, or right before you're about to take your last final. Your brain is overloaded, and maybe you're sleep deprived. Cry it out, but you're going to kill it. Listen to the lights.

6. When you can't find a spot in the library.

The library turned into your second home over the semester. Naturally, that's how it should be during the most crucial point of the year, right? Wrong. It's okay to shoot some glares in the people that took your usual spot.

7. Depending on coffee to get you through the week.

Coffee is already a life source, but it's not abnormal for your dependency to grow during this point. It's pure fuel.

8. That feeling you get when you think you know what's going on.

It's the best feeling or the worst. Either all of your studying paid off, or it's too good to be true. Go with your gut when you're answering those multiple choice questions!

9. Getting your final grades back.

The exams are done, the projects are turned in. You have nothing to do now but sit back and try to wait patiently. Key word, try.

10. Realizing you're finally done with classes.

Gone are the days of that dreaded morning class. You survived finals week! Walk out with your head held high, and do the Hopper!

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
