19 Thoughts That Definitely Went Through Your Head When You Pulled An All-Nighter This Finals Season

All-nighters. If you're a college student (or really anyone who's a practitioner of procrastination) you're very familiar with this term. Often associated with long nights studying or writing in the library with coffee and/or five-hour energy drinks by our side, all-nighters are meant to increase productivity and help us get stuff done on time. Usually, they just succeed in making students even more tired.

This finals season was a hard one for many, including myself, and I know pulling an all-nighter was sometimes necessary (for me it was for writing a political science essay I hadn't even thought about until the day before it was due). So, as we close out this final season (or are just getting started), here are some things you may have thought, or will be thinking when that dreaded night comes to pass.

1. "I need coffee."

Thank goodness Starbucks is right here. (just don't think about the fact that they close soon)

2. "I want to go to bed."

Sleep is for the weak, right?

3. "When will this end?"

Just a few more hours to go...

4. "God this book is long."

We love unfinished school assignments.

5. "I just want to sleep."

When will I not think about sleep tonight?

6. *calculates how much taking an L on this assignment will hurt my grade*

I'll do math for this, but not my math homework.

7. "I need another coffee."

After finding out that taking an L on this assignment will in fact hurt your grade significantly. (Thank goodness Starbucks is still open)

8. "By _____ time I shall be done."

Of course, you never are.

9. *thinks about how much work I have to do afterwards*

10. "The most powerful woman in the room is me!"

11. "Never mind I can't do this."

12. "Did I finish that cup of coffee already?"

The library Starbucks is definitely closed at this point.

13. "This is life now."

This will never be over.

14. "What if I take a break to watch Game of Thrones?"

Morning is coming...

15. "Did we even learn this in class?"

Answer: "No, no we did not."

...

"Ok maybe we did and I just wasn't paying attention."

16. "I never want to see the inside of a library again."

I mean I do, just not anytime in the near future.

17. "Hallelujah I'm done!...I think."

Yes, I did it!"

18. "This is why I don't pull all-nighters."

I am never doing this again!

19. *proceeds to pull another all-nighter*

It'll be better this time, right?

At least the end is in sight! I believe in you, you've got this! And after all the finals are done, you can finally rest.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.

1. It's easy to be fooled by shiny things.

Tamatoa created a liar filled with shiny things simply for the purpose of tricking fish to enter and become his food. He too experiences a lesson in how easy it is to be tricked by shiny things when Moana distracts him by covering herself in glowing algae so Maui can grab his hook.
