Well, today a friend gave me the best idea for an article and I really think everyone needs to share in the humor and accuracy of the three drinks you need before and after finals.
Before when you’re studying hardcore and are pulling several all-nighters in a row:
Coffee
Everyone knows the good ol’ cup of Starbucks or Octane (for those Birmingham natives) that will give you that extra boost to finish that 11-page paper you waited until four hours before it was due to even start.
Monster or Red Bull
When the coffee doesn’t work and you really need to not sleep for the next few hours. Beware: the side effects can include the jitters and even hallucinations (although that was probably due to the absolute lack of sleep).
Five Hour Energy
When nothing else works and you have to actually make it through two essays and a final exam.
After, when you’ve worked hard and are ready to hit the bars and the clubs….
Beer
Anybody wants to kick back with a cold one after they’ve finished all the papers and exams and presentations.
Rum and coke
A great choice for any bar. It’s not too complicated and usually pretty easy to get right, even if you're pouring it yourself.
Shots
When any mixed drink is just not enough to blow off steam.
I hope this helps you all get through the week of hell that all college students understand!
