Finals week is upon us. You're either going through the various motions of preparing for it right now, or you just finished them last week and you're sitting here in a daze now that it's all over. No matter who you are or how well you think you managed your time leading up to finals week, it's always going to jump right up on you and kick your butt.
And speaking of your butt, who's the first spunky, endearingly awkward female sitcom character that comes to mind when you hear that word?
Tina Belcher, of course!
If you're a big fan of the show 'Bob's Burgers' like I certainly am, then odds are you procrastinated studying and writing your papers by watching episodes until you literally could not put off your work any longer. Well, in my case, re-watching, because I'm a big nerd and have already watched every episode to date. Or maybe you just shrugged off your school responsibilities and hid from your obligations under a blanket and clicked "next" at the end of every episode with no shame. But no judgement over here. Just remember it's your butt on the line...and seeing your butt on the line would make Tina pretty happy!
So! Here's your finals week, told by yours truly: Tina Belcher.
You, kissing any little bit of your free time goodbye as you hide in your cave—I mean room, to get your work done
![]()
Then you quickly decide to give up before you even start
![]()
No, you're determined to get everything done. But this is your face when you sit down and realize how much work you actually have to complete with clearly nowhere near enough time
![]()
But you KNOW you were born to be a procrastinator, so you start doing everything other than what you really have to complete
![]()
And then you get distracted by Every. Little. Thing.
![]()
So you remind yourself that if worse comes to worse, you can always go be a stripper
![]()
That feeling when your classmates put together a study group so y'all have a fighting chance of passing
![]()
And your reaction when your professors ask how your week is going
![]()
You, depending on coffee to (hopefully) help you pull through
![]()
Figuring out how to score as many points as you can on that Directed Thesis final presentation
![]()
Giving yourself a much-needed pep-talk before you sit down to write that ten-page paper
![]()
But then the studying or writing of your paper isn't going as planned
Piecing together your paper like you're a mastermind creator
![]()
Then realizing the week is NOWHERE near over yet
![]()
But you force yourself to prevail until you do so much work that you have a psychological breakdown and your thoughts become wildly incoherent
![]()
So then you try to "sleep" the night before your big exams (LOL who are you kidding, you won't be getting any sleep during finals week).
![]()
But then you wake up and convince yourself that you're ready to face the day
![]()
And you're so nervous that you absentmindedly get ready
![]()
Driving to class the day of your exam like:
![]()
Walking into your exams, hoping your suave style and ability to exude confidence will impress your professor enough to make them pass you with a decent grade
What you say to the test as it sits on your desk
![]()
But then the exam looks nothing like how you imagined it would
![]()
So you gotta remind yourself to keep it together before you lose your cool in the middle of the test
Adding some pizazz to the end of your final/final paper in hopes that it'll score you some brownie points
![]()
Handing in your exam and/or paper, reminding your professor that it may have it's flaws, but you put your whole soul into it
![]()
But then you realize upon handing it in that something you wrote was wrong
![]()
So you slink out of the room and don't dare to look back
![]()
But oh well! Because this is you as you leave for summer vacation. And contrary to popular belief, you survived finals week
When you get your grades back a few days later and find out you aced the class...
![]()
...and then your answer to everyone when they ask how in God's name you pulled it off:
![]()
