21 Times "Parks And Recreation" Understood Finals Week

Studying during finals week can be difficult. Many students think they can see the light at the end of the tunnel while other see that same light and realize that it's a train coming full-steam ahead. Whether you are drowning under the stress of finals week or cruising to commencement, Leslie Knope and her friends at the Park's Department understand all that is finals week.

1. The excitement that classes are finally over.

Whether you broke out in a cool dance or did a fist pump of excitement, joy was abundant and overflowing when you thought you were done.

2. Relishing in the moment.

Many of us listened to Donna, enjoying our freedom from the tortures of class.

3. Reading days are restful.

There's nothing to worry about when we have a reading day to relax!

4. "I fell into the pit, you fell into the pit, we all fell into the pit."

Oh yes, we fell into the pit. And hard. We realized that we have to actually do work on reading days.

5. Stressing under the work.

When you start doing work again, you realize how you should have been working earlier.

6. Your mind gives up.

You've done so much work at this point, it's tough enough to just keep your eyes open.

7. Caffeine.

Bless the Lord for this delicacy! Now, let's get back to work.

8. Accept bad eating habits.

You eat what you can, just trying to survive.

9. The first exam.

Was that good? Was it bad? I guess it's just time to wait it out and see what happens.

10. You realize you have to start studying for the next one.

You have to shut everything out and start all over.

11. The process is tedious.

All joy is lost. You went from feeling as if school was over to being overwhelmed with work.

12. Confidence in your work.

Whether you're actually smart or you're Andy Dwyer, confidence is the key to survival.

13. When there's only one more final.

Wow, has time flown by! Before you know it, you only have one more final to take care of, and then break is here. How did that happen?

14. When you step into class to take your last final...

Oh yes, the confidence is high, as you are so close to tasting sweet victory.

14. ...And you realize that it's harder than you thought

Oh yes, you should have studied more. A lot more.

15. You start to remember the material on the exam.

Oh, how exciting! We can actually do this!

16. When you get hit with a tough question.

Well, you didn't see that one coming!

17. You lose all hope.

What is there to do?

18. When you write something just to put down an answer.

Hey, at least you didn't leave any blank.

19. You finish the last question.

Wow, the year is actually over...

20. You turn in your exam.

21. Time to have fun!

Enjoy your summer! Don't think about the fact that it's going to start all over again...

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
