Thanksgiving Break has come and gone and now it’s time to face the week we all hate: finals week. While it may only last a few days, the tests, projects and papers make it feel like an eternity. So sit back and let Chanel and her friends guide you through the horror that is studying for finals.
1. When everything and everyone distracts you and the last thing you can thinking about is studying.
2. When you are going over your notes and have no memory of learning any of the material.
3. Food run at 2 A.M., even though you haven’t even started studying yet? Count you in!
4.When you contemplate just not showing up to your exams and starting winter break early.
5. Deciding whether or not to have a mental breakdown in the middle of the library.
6.When your roommate tells you how they can get A on their exams without studying.
7. You've been working on a paper for three hours and only have two sentences.
8. Realizing you need to at least need a B on an exam to pass the class.
9. Using any and all tactics to try and keep yourself awake.
10. Realizing the final you thought was only on the last five chapters is actually cumulative.
11. When your friends ask you if are you OK…12. Being 100 percent done with studying, but have only been at it for a few hours.
13. Realizing you have the last possible final exam time slot before break.
14. Trying to tell yourself you are OK, but you are actually dying on the inside.
15. When your friend tries to convince you that you are totally ready for the final after only an hour of studying.
16. When you have given up all hope on even trying to look decent. At least you have clothes on, right?
17. You are running on only two hours of sleep and are trying so hard not to snap on people.
18. Your daily habits start to become weirder and weirder.
19. And even seeing the library gives you anxiety.
20. One cup of coffee is just no longer enough.
So even though finals week sucks, do not give up. If you ever feel overwhelmed and like you cannot do it, just recite this line: my GPA is only a number and does not define the rest of my life. And plus, look on the bright side: after finals week you are home free!
