Midterms are coming up fast, so is spring break for that matter. While Spring Break is a very exciting time, midterms can be the most stressful. Especially when they are supposed to showcase what you've been learning over the course of the semester. Or didn't learn (we don't judge).
Midterms, meet Grey's Anatomy- the iconic ABC television series which captured the heart of thousands of people over the course of about 12 years. This show has seen it's fair share of triumphs and failures, heroic measures and utter sadness but all in all, true Grey fans know that it is more than just losing your favorite characters (curse you Shonda Rimes).
Without further adieu, here midterms as told by one of the greatest television shows, Grey's Anatomy.
1. The Studying and Cramming
Studying is bad enough for an exam you're worried about. Cramming for your midterm exams can be absolutely terrible, you can end up getting super stressed and angry with yourself.
2. The desire to eat all the foods, whenever you can.
You literally don't care what you eat, you just HAVE to eat. Before you pass out from hunger.
3. The Fear of Disappointing Your Parents and Yourself
Well while Ellis Grey is certainly angry with Meredith for "being ordinary", you are stressed out about the impending doom about your midterms. You definitely don't want to let yourself down, as you can be your biggest critic, but in the same breath...Disappointing your parents can be just as bad (if not worse) if you tell them that you didn't do as well on an exam as you had hoped.
4. Trying to find someone to study with for your midterms
This means finding a good, reliable study partner to help you (and them), pass/ace the midterm. And in the end, you might even have a friend out of the deal.
5. Studying with your friend, and during the exam making quick eye contact to say "We got this"
There really is no greater feeling during an exam seeing a question you and your study partner went over in detail before the midterm arrived on your desk.
6. Knowing that you can do this, and anything else you set your mind to.
This goes without saying, you can conquer this midterm and whatever else life throws your way.
7. Trying to remain positive when you look at that first question, even though it looks like NOTHING you even studied for
Whelp, this could have gone better. Here's to hoping we can pull this off.
8. When that midterm takes everything you had out of you.
We're only human after all, we are capable of reason, passion and of course mistakes.
9. The After Effects of the Midterm
Later that evening, you and your buddies go for a round at a bar or even back at someone's place (or go and play video games, whatever helps you de-stress). Just have to let the remaining bit of tension or stress out. The midterm is now over and it can "suck it!"
10. Post midterm party, and you're genuinely worried about your midterm results.
You know, you've already partied it out, sung it out, and now the crying and more stressing about your results begins to infiltrate your normally peaceful Sunday thoughts.
11. Getting your midterm back from your professor
It's like a bomb of relief going off inside your chest, right? Too soon? Too soon...
