Finals Week, As Told By Friends

It's the week of finals and all throughout the dorm, stressing and procrastinating are ever the norm.

Finals Week, As Told By Friends
Taste Movies

Finals week is just around the corner! I'm so glad to be finishing up this semester. Finals week will bring late nights of studying and stressful days of test taking. As you enter these last few days of torture before the winter break, I thought it would be nice to laugh a little before we go into stress mode.

1. When you skim through the test before you take it and you think,


2. When you find a grammar mistake on the exam, and it bothers you to no end. (Okay, maybe that just happens to me).

3. When someone in your class asks you to study at the library with them

4. When the professor says the final exam will be cumulative

5. When you're on the "quiet floor" of the library and people are talking super loud

6. When all your friends aren't the least bit stressed about taking finals

7. When you get a self-hatred moment while studying

8. When people ask you how college and finals are going (Tip: don't ask)

9. When you've been studying for so long, the words don't make sense anymore

10. You may have mediocre final exam scores, but at least you're still a cool person

11. When you look at your calendar and realize how many exams you really have to take in the next week

12. Nothing will go your way because it's already been a horrible week

13. When you feel like you only got about three questions correct on the exam

14. When the group chat is lit but you're trying to study

15. But you are doing literally everything to avoid studying (such as writing this article)

16. When all your friends are done with their finals, but you still have to take two more

17. "How are you holding up? Are you studying? Do you need anything?"

18. When you come out of the exam room and have no idea what just happened

19. When one of the short answer questions on the exam is a take home question

20. When someone in your class says, "I didn't even study and that was so damn easy." THANKS

21. When you have to walk to class and it's freezing outside

22. You think you're mentally okay, but on the inside, you're really feeling like this

23. When you have to give your friends a pep talk before they take their exams

24. Sitting through the final lecture of the class and trying to absorb as much information as possible

25. When you try to learn a whole semester's worth of material in one night

Now it's time to breathe. It's over. You survived. Well, just until next semester, then the process repeats itself. But let's not think about that right now. Now it's time to catch up on all the sleep you've missed the past few days.

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.

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.

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.
