How To Handle 2 Finals In 1 Day, Because That Day Will Come

Why isn't this summer session getting over already? Next week, I have my finals and this time, unfortunately, and in a moment of misguided optimism, I enrolled in two classes that have their finals on the same day.

Why did I do that? What possessed me to actually choose this life willingly?

Suffer with me as I go through these very stages that I have described in the course of this week.

1. Denial

Giphy

Is this actually happening? Aren't we all in a simulation anyway? Nothing matters and so, therefore, these finals are not real, no matter what my schedule says.

2. Anger

Giphy

Anger is the phase I am currently in. Why did I think this would be a good idea? I'm so angry at myself and how much I overestimate my abilities. This will not bode well for me.

3. Depression

Giphy

This is the time that you realize that you aren't on your own side and if you aren't, then who will be? Also, everything is garbage and your life is in shambles. This stage is never pretty but it is also the most guaranteed stage you will experience. I need to hydrate more, this stage is coming for me.

5. Bargaining

Giphy

This is happening so I might as well spend all my money on one night and eat all the junk food I can. I am not going to exist after it anyway, might as well go all out.

5. Acceptance

Here we are, in the final act. You have accepted it and you know it is not going to be amazing, but you are going to try your best anyways because that's just what you need to do now.

And there you have it! Good luck! You are going to ace it.

Now allow me to go back to my tv shows, haha what finals?

5 Things To Do That Are Better Than Writing A Paper

Don't waste your time trying to write that paper when there are so many more interesting things you could be doing.

Writing a paper is never fun and is rarely rewarding. The writer's block, the page requirement, be specific, but don’t summarize, make sure you fixed any grammatical errors, did you even use spellcheck? and analyze, analyze, analyze.

Papers can be a major pain. They take up so much time and effort that by the end of the process you hate yourself and you hate the professor for making life so difficult. Questions of your existence start roaming in your mind. Am I even cut out for college if I can’t write a single paper? Am I even capable of taking care of myself if I lack the energy to open my laptop and start typing?

I can barely remember back when I was the only child. Most would say it’s because it is extremely difficult to remember things as a toddler but I would say it's because I was bored until my sister came along. My mother always says how important the "sister bond" is and with every year that passes I realize how right she is. Instead of writing a novel about all of the wonderful things there are about having a sister I decided to list a few of them instead.

It is the time of our lives that we are beginning to enter the adult world and most of us, if not all of us, have no idea what we are doing. It's like starting a video game, but skipping the tutorial. We're all just running around aimlessly hoping we accidentally do something right that moves us along the right path. Now that graduation has just happened, or is right around the corner for some of us, it's time to start thinking about how we are going to take care of ourselves once we are on our own.

If you’re anything like me, you love a good cup of coffee. My coffee always comes from Starbucks; I refuse to drink it from anywhere else. Over the years, it’s become one of my biggest addictions. So, if you are aware that you’re a Starbucks addict as well, or maybe you need to check to see if you’re an addict, here are seven ways to tell.

College involves a whirlwind of emotions, whether it’s from the stress of an assignment (or twenty), or from fighting with your roommate. It can be overwhelming at times and it’s important to take a step a back and calmly think things over. Maybe gain some perspective. The following aren’t foolproof tips and may not apply to you, but I was able to find success with them (hope you do too!)
