There is less than a month until we are free - there will be no more class, no more tests, no more stress. But the things that stand in our way of freedom just might be the death of us. And what is the worst part? There is nothing we can do, but push through. Summer's almost here and here's the six worst things standing in our way.
6. Moving Out. Most of us have to go back home or traveling during summer and even though it may not seem like the top priority on your to-do list, packing your stuff takes longer than you expect and is definitely not what you want to be doing after you finally finish all your finals.
5. Summer Body. With the stress of finals and final projects, the fact that you might want to have a somewhat rockin' body to show off over summer seems to be forgotten. That is, until, your finals are over and it's time to hit the beach with a body that hasn't hit the gym in weeks.
4. Reading. Textbooks and reading assignments get put off until the very last minute. With finals coming up quickly, the last minutes are here and now is the time to scramble to find time to read through all of your assignments for the semester as you try to pretend you are somewhat prepared for your tests.
3. Grades. Although you may finally be done with all your finals, there's still those couple of weeks afterwards where you're refreshing your WebPortal constantly, just waiting to see if all your hard work and all-nighters were worth the pain.
2. Projects. Whether it be group projects or final research papers, they're almost as bad as your finals themselves. They take up all the time you should be spending studying and are, honestly, just the bane of college students' existence.
1. And, of course, finals. Finals can not be over soon enough. The fate of your work all semester and your final grade all rest on one final test for every class you are taking. The more you study, the less prepared you usually feel. The stress is endless.
