'Tis the season: midterms. As a college freshman, these can be incredibly overwhelming. Actually, these are overwhelming no matter where you are in life- from sixth grade to senior year in college. Nobody likes the time where everybody is stressed, the library is always full, and no amount of caffeine ever seems to be enough. Stress is at an all time high, and sleep/mood/happiness is at an all time low.
1. You forget to eat

2. Your shoulders are up to your ears because they're so tense

3. You call your mom 10 times a day
Giphy"Hey, mom... yes I know I just called... I just wanted to know if you can have a heart attack from stress?"
4. You don't go to sleep until 2am at the earliest
GiphyHomework/studying/midterms = stress = no sleep.
5. You drink coffee like it's water

7. Eventually, you give up
