Finals Week As Told By "30 Rock"
Wired.com

Finals week. The terrible time that stands between college students and summer. After working hard all semester, the last thing anyone wants is a week of stress and studying. As you prepare to lock yourself in your room or head to the library to study, it can be hard to stay positive. But fear not, Liz Lemon and her 30 Rock Crew understand the struggle.

1. The only way to really cope is stress eating.

2. Trying to explain what you've learned.

3. When you have a break between exams and don't want to start working again.

4. Begging for help from above because things are getting desperate.

5. Looking at the first question on an exam and realizing how little you've learned.


6. When someone asks you what's wrong.

7. After you put in a solid 15 minutes of studying.


8. When all of your friends are busy and you just need someone to listen.


9. Reading an open response question and realizing you'll be completely making up your answer.

10. When your study strategy isn't exactly working out but you tried.

11. And, finally, when it's all over and you get to celebrate summer.

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.

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.
