25 Thoughts You Have While Taking Final Exams

Ah, final exams. The only things that stand between you and beloved winter break. A whole month and a half of pure freedom. Let's be honest, if you're a college student, you KNOW that finals week is when all hell breaks loose. Between studying, laughing, crying, not sleeping, and not eating the week before, you barely even have brain power left to actually take your exams. Here are some thoughts that probably invade your mind while you're taking said exam:

1. Ok, I've got this. I studied, so I should be fine, right?!

2. MY MIND HAS GONE BLANK! Blank! I don't even remember the alphabet anymore!!

3. *looks at paper* Is this even a real question!? We never covered this!

4. I swear college was invented as a form of torture.

5. Honestly...would being a stripper for the rest of my life be all that bad?

6.This gigantic packet of paper is honestly looking like a great pillow right about now.

7. Breathe, I need to breathe. I'm fine, just gotta get through this.

8. UGH, how is everyone else speeding through this!?

9. Did I remember to brush my teeth this morning?

10. *Looks at clock* How has it already been an hour?

11. I want my mom. I want my mom NOW.

12. Why can't I go back to preschool? All they have to do is nap and play with play-dough.

13. Who even invented finals? Did someone actually think this was a good idea?

14. Whatever, my GPA won't matter in Heaven (or Hell, for that matter).

15. I guess I could always marry rich?

16. *looks around* Um, when did half of the class leave?

17. Oh god, my professor is staring at me. I can't let her know I'm suffering! I will not be defeated.

18. Who am I kidding, this exam defeated me a long time ago?

19. Bad karma, that has to be the reason for this exam. Maybe if I had been a little nicer to that weird kid in the 3rd grade the exam gods would've been a little nicer to me.

20. I can't see. Oh my god, I'm going blind!!

21. Oh, just kidding. Those are the just the massive tears in my eyes.

22. Maybe I should stop thinking so much and actually just finish this exam.

23. I don't even know what I'm writing anymore, this is literally word vomit.

24. Well, I've finally finished. I'm the last one here, and my face is stained with tears, but I've made it.

25. Wait...THERE'S STILL ANOTHER PAGE!?!

AI music threatens creativity

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.
