Midterms are a time of seeing all of your responsibilities laid out in front of you, ready to be completed, when you, exhausted from the first half of the semester, want nothing more than a soft blanket and a nap. Now, you might have the determination to be responsible and not wait until the night before it's due, but let's be honest, here's how midterms will actually go.
You and your friends resolve to spend your weekend in the library.
The first few hours pass, and you're still going strong. You can do this all night!
But after a while, your friend gets an invite to a party and gives you that look.
And you know study time is over.
Everyone packs up their things to get ready for a night out.
You know you need to study, but hey, mama didn't raise no shut-in.
You dress to the nines and have an amazing night out with your buddies...
...completely disregarding any thought about your exams tomorrow morning.
You wake up to your alarm the next morning, still in last night's clothes.
When did you get home? What time is it? What are you wearing? Why does your pinkie hurt? Is it broken? Your first exam is in 10 minutes?
You get to your hardest professor's test a little late.
He sees you and must feel pity, because he lets you into the class, no questions asked, earning some newfound respect for the dude.
That is, until he passes out the tests.
A million thoughts and emotions race through your mind while staring at the exam.
You turn in the exam, and consider different options once you flunk out of college.
The professor emails your results that night, and you hold you breath as you open it.
And you see your passing grade.
Congratulations! You've successfully made it halfway through the semester! Now, to do this all over again for finals in a few short months!
