If Finals Week Were Like The Office

If Finals Week Were Like The Office

Finals week in college is the one time of the academic year where all students can unanimously agree on one thing: It sucks. Big time. If you aren't stress eating, ripping hairs out, developing carpal tunnel from hours spent typing or having an existential crisis approximately once every .03 seconds, are you really experiencing college finals week? Here, the 10 times The Office accurately resembled every college student's final week of classes and exams.

1. When finals are like two days away and your professors are STILL handing out new assignments without a care in the world.

2. That one kid who is chattering away to his friends on the quiet floors of Bird. We see you. We know you. And yes, indeed we loathe you.

3. Trying to reach the word count on your 10+ page research thesis.

4. Every person's thought process as they're crossing intersections on campus and would rather die than study for their next exam.

5. The feeling when you have two finals back to back in one day and you're high on caffeine and self-loathing.

6. The feeling of knowing that the holidays and winter break are just around the corner but you still have finals week in the way.

7. Walking into your final with zero hours of sleep and a shit ton of regret and self-loathing.

8. When your professor says that this is not an essay/take-home exam/final project that can be done in one night.

9. When you KNOW you should be studying but laying in bed eating Easy Mac and watching Netflix sounds that much more appealing.

10. Nothing compares to that feeling of walking out of your last exam and knowing that you finally can sleep, eat to your hearts desire and reunite with you family and friends back home.


Best of luck on your finals, and enjoy your winter break!

Happy holidays!

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.
