The Stages Of Finals Week As Told By "Gilmore Girls"

Ah, finals week -- the most dreaded time of the semester. With just one week separating us from summer, it can be hard to focus, and even harder to hanker down and get to work. Spending countless hours in the library buried in books, barely sleeping, and running on caffeine can definitely be pretty hectic. Remember to try and get some sleep, eat right and take a well deserved break sometimes. When in doubt, channel the ever studious Rory Gilmore (after all she did go to Yale,) and think WWTGGD -- what would the "Gilmore Girls" do? In the meantime, here's the stages of finals week, the good, the bad, and the ugly, as told by "Gilmore Girls."

1. Realizing it's that time of year again -- finals.

2. Deciding pulling an all-nighter sounds like a good idea...

3. ...And then have to deal with the effects the next day.

4. Checking your snap story and seeing all of the fun things all your friends that are already on summer are doing.

5. Trying to get work done but everyone in the library is being especially annoying.


6. Being in desperate need of a snack break...


7. ...Because you realized your hardest test is worth 45 percent of your grade.

8. And trying to fit in extra studying in whenever you can.

9. But still managing to have a breakdown the day before tests start.


10. And just needing to hug it out...

11. ...Or call your parents for emotional support.

12. Walking into your first exam like...

13. ...And then realizing it's a Scantron and you can't for the life of you find a #2 pencil.

14. But you power through...

15. ...And finally the week is over...

16. ...And you can celebrate to your heart's content!

Good luck on finals, everybody. Catch you on the flip side!

In an age where artificial intelligence can mimic the voice of Freddie Mercury or reimagine pop hits as synthwave ballads, a new frontier has emerged — one that blurs the line between innovation and erosion. While AI offers undeniable benefits in technical domains, its intrusion into creative arts, especially music, raises urgent questions. Not just about copyright, but about culture, education, and the very soul of artistic expression.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

Why Your Astrological Sign May Not Match Your Personality

We are all more than just one sign.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
