Spring Finals, As Told By Michael Scott

Spring Finals, As Told By Michael Scott

Well it’s here again, the week that every college student dreads, finals week. It is the last thing holding you back from your summer vacation and the ability to go home and forget about school and get free food every day. But it is also the week from hell, with all-nighters and stress levels that are beyond what they should be. This is the week that every one of us dreads. The library becomes your new home, spending almost 24 hours a day there. Caffeine becomes you best friend and your family starts to worry because they haven’t heard from you in days. You know that the end is in sight and summer break is just a week away, but getting to that end seems near impossible at the moment. But here is a little office humor to help you get through this awful time.

When you find out that the exam is cumulative

You spent all semester thinking that the final was just a "final test" and you were wrong. So now you have to read the entire book and just hope that you'll remember something.

When you read the same chapter for the 100th time and still don’t understand it at all

No matter how many times you read it, you still do not understand what it is saying. So now you're just hoping that maybe someone can explain it to you in simple terms.

When you hit that 12th hour in the library and the delusions starts to kick in

Everything has become funny, including your own failure. So now you're just laughing and hoping for the best.

When you take the practice test again and still cannot get a single answer right

We've all been there, thinking I got this and then getting every single answer wrong.

When realize that your final is on a Saturday

Seriously though, who has a final on a Saturday NIGHT. Oh right, I do.

The moment when you just except the failure

You've finally reached the moment where you literally do not care and just want to get the exam over. You're even thinking about just skipping the final all together.

When you try to calculate the lowest grade that you can get and still pass the class

You go on canvas and every other website to see if just maybe you can fail the final and somehow still pass the class.

And when you find out that the lowest you can get is a 95%

But that is not the case and even though you're passing the class, you still have to get a 95% on the final to pass. How does that even happen?

When you walk into Starbucks for the 100th time and they recognize you

You've already been there about six times just within the last three hours. So yeah they remember you.

When you finally take the exam and you are free!

It's finally over and you can now breathe. Now time for summer vacation and no school. Unless you're me then you have summer classes.

We all know how finals weeks goes and all the stress that comes along with. No matter if you’re a senior or a freshman we all feel the same pain. Just know that you’re not alone in this and that the office is always there to cheer you up and take your mind off the dreaded finals. So good luck everyone with your finals and remember we’re all in this together

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

Whether you met your new love interest online, through mutual friends, or another way entirely, you'll definitely want to know what you're getting into. I mean, really, what's the point in entering a relationship with someone if you don't know whether or not you're compatible on a very basic level?

Consider these 21 questions to ask in the talking stage when getting to know that new guy or girl you just started talking to:

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.
