Finals Week As Told By 'That '70s Show'

We're all alright.

Finals Week As Told By 'That '70s Show'

Finals week, a whole week dedicated to cramming a semester's worth of material into your brain that you don't even remember learning in the first place:

But you spend most of your time procrastinating instead of actually studying.

So you ask your teachers for extra credit, but they tell you they don't believe in doing that.

And your friends ask if you'll help them study, but you know just as little as they do.

So you try to study but all you can think about is one thing.

Suddenly it's the night before your first test, so you're forced to pull an all-nighter in order to make up for all of the studying that you should have been doing.

And you text all of your friends to wish them good luck with their finals.

It's time to get ready to take your first test, but all you can think about is how comfy your bed is.

And you debate if it's even worth going to at all.

So you try to pump yourself up.

But then you walk into the lecture hall, and you can tell that everyone feels the exact same way that you do.

Then you open up your test and suddenly you don't remember a single thing.

You contemplate if there's any possible way that you could cheat off the person next to you, but your teacher is staring you down.

And you think about how screwed you would be if you got caught cheating.

Then everyone around you starts to get up and you wonder how the hell they've finished already.

So you sit there and pray that your teacher will feel bad for you and at least give you points for writing your name down.

Basically how you feel after you finish that test.

What you imagine your professor is thinking when he grades your test.

One final down, only five more to go.

When your parents ask you how finals week is going.

And you begin to wonder if you even need to go to college in the first place.

How you feel waiting for your teachers to post your grades.

And when they finally do, you dread logging on to your school's website to check them.

But you realize that you actually didn't do that bad.

Finally, the madness is over.

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.
