Finals week is quickly approaching for us all. It's that time of the year when you want to study in a quiet place, but everyone has the same thought and the library is packed, and Starbucks is about to rank in some major money. It's a stressful time. And who else knows and understands stress better than students taking these finals? You could say Tina Belcher can accurately describe what we feel about taking finals, and all the stages we will be facing once finals begins.

The moment when the professor says your final is mostly comprehensive.

Even though we all dread hearing this, we have to admit that they aren't doing this to make our lives miserable. And they usually give you a big heads up about this weeks in advance. Most of the time.

You hype yourself up to begin the tedious studying process.

Once the studying first starts, we think we can handle this. We are planning out our study techniques and have a fresh cup of something with a crap ton of caffeine in it. But this doesn't last long.

Too many hours. Too many things to study.

You start to slowly lose your mind because you've been studying none stop. You're mind can't focus, you ran out of caffeine, and you're ready to take an F and give up.

What's sleep? Wish I knew.

You're still persisting in your studying, but it is now the wee hours of the night. You go try to take a nap and you constantly think of random thoughts, but not anything you just studied.

"So how is studying going?"

Don't ask. Cause we don't know the answer.

No sleep continues, which means you are distracted by everything and anything.

And I mean anything.

It's time for the final, and you're planning out your plan B for if you fail.

It's just a precautionary.

The first few questions are seemingly easy, and you start to feel confident.

That's right, you got this, nothing can go wrong!

Then there is the ever daunting essay/open ended section and your confidence goes *poof*

Welp, we expected this would happen.

And then there's the feeling of going in to your last final

This is where everyone gets excited to leave school and as you're taking your test, it feels like you can hear summer calling your name.

You hand in your last final, and then you are FREE.


Do we care about the grade we just got on the final? NOPE. Why? Because we're DONE FOR LIKE THREE MONTHS.

Grades come, and you can say to your family that you PASSED and they're proud!

There's a B, maybe an A, maybe a couple C's, possibly a D. But it's passing! (C's get degrees right?) Either way, they just want to hear that you passed and then your family looks at you like you're a genius.

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.

I was asked so many times why I wanted to go to a small school when a big university is so much better. Don't get me wrong, I'm sure a big university is great but I absolutely love going to a small school. I know that I miss out on big sporting events and having people actually know where it is. I can't even count how many times I've been asked where it is and I know they won't know so I just say "somewhere in the middle of Wisconsin." But, I get to know most people at my school and I know my professors very well. Not to mention, being able to walk to the other side of campus in 5 minutes at a casual walking pace. I am so happy I made the decision to go to school where I did. I love my school and these are just a few reasons why.
