It's finally the time when everyone gets absolutely no sleep, loading up on pounds of coffee is the norm, and when procrastination becomes your best friend. You guessed it it's finals week, the only thing that sucks about going to college. But as every semester comes to an end these are some of the thoughts you may have while your "preparing" to take your finals.
1. When Should I Actually Start Studying?
If you anything like me you think you have all the time in the world to study. A week before exams seems to be so far away you may start to make study guides or start studying way in advance but we all know that never really happens. Eventually your first exam creeps up on you so slowly and you actually have to get your shit together.
2. What Things Other Than Studying Do I Have To Do?
I finally buckle down I try to start studying. The key word is try here people because when you really want to do something you always seem to find random things you need to do. You try to distract yourself with food, cleaning, staring at the wall, social media, the list could go on and on. I swear there is always something to procrastinate studying with. But for every minute that I actually do something I reward myself with a good hour of bullshitting, it's the only way to get things done.
3. Who Created This Torturous System?
Who in the right mind would make a week of hell for us poor students? Don't they understand that cramming for hours and hours, not getting enough sleep, and barely eating is not healthy. I guess not.
4. Did I Even Learn This?
Majority of the time your teachers give you a study guide and there is a good chance you didn't learn some of the stuff that's on there so you basically have to teach yourself.
5. Should I Just Drop Out Now?
Finals week can make even the most confident person have a melt down on what their doing with their life. We just think why do I do this to myself? I should drop out of school and become a porn star. Obviously I'm just joking.
Finals week is full of tear stricken cheeks and tired eyes but at least it's only one week and not the entire year.
