The month of May is like a love hate relationship with any college student in any grade. We are all happy that summer is among us, but it also feels like we also might drown in our notes and we also feel like we failed every single final project; resulting in us to stress about every grade until our final's are, finally put in.
Stressed is the one and only word to describe what it feels like to get through the last week of college. I am not sure if we actually get more work to do at this time, or if half of us are just super bad a procrastinating. Either way it feels like a million differnt things are going on at once. First of all we have finals in at least one class and spend our free time stressing over how we are going to prepare and study for it. Then we take the final and assume that we did super bad on it , and we are just convinced that if we don't pass this final we will mist likely just die. Soon after we realize that it will take at least 2-3 days for our professors to finalize grades, but in college time that is equivelant to waiting for like 6 month (or at least that's what it feels like). Meanwhile, we are trying to figure out what courses we need to register for next fall or focusing on graduation. It's a wonder we all don't have super good time management skills by now because this last week basically looks like this:
So, here is to the end of the semester. Many of us are finishing up or have already finished up and have already experienced the frustrating and busy "last week of the spring semester." I defiantly do not remember fall semester being this stressful, but summer is among us! Congrats on finishing another semester; time to start stressing about the next one!
