Your Hell Week, As Told by Step Brothers

Your Hell Week, As Told by Step Brothers

No time for karate in the garage, it's your hell week. Time to buckle down.


The Sunday shock when you realize you are officially screwed.

It's Sunday night. You are exhausted from the weekend and from an extensive chapter meeting. You decide to open your planner to double-check your assignments for the week that should NBD. Three exams, one paper and a project due by Friday!?

You've accepted the fact you're gonna look like crap this week.

You are in for a week of baggy puffy eyes and the endless time in the library will make you be looking some type of way. You don't have time this week to put forth effort into your appearance.

Your phone starts to blow up with your group members asking if you can all meet every night this week for three hours. But, wait, Becky cannot meet until Tuesday unless it's after 5 p.m., but Daniel cannot meet unless it's before 9 a.m. every day and, well, you get the picture of the dreaded group meeting.

You have just finished your first all-nighter of the week and first exam.

Now, your group can only meet right now. All you want to do is sleep, but Becky won't let you live it down if you try to bail on this next meeting. Dammit, Becky.

As if organizing and dealing with all your group members wasn't torture enough, your group meeting was completely unproductive. You ended up distracting each other by looking up music videos and turning your history presentation into an awful, inappropriate song. You have to meet for three more hours to actually finish your work.

Midway through the week you snap on your mom/roommate/best friend.

They didn't deserve it at the time, but you are delusional from lack of sleep and your eating and sleeping patterns are anything but healthy to deal with the stress. No, you don't have time to go out to a nice healthy dinner for Susan's 22nd b-day, You don't even have time to sleep, dammit.

It's Wednesday night. You have two exams down and are halfway through your paper. You do everything else like clean, organize and disinfect your entire room before finishing your damn paper.

It's now Thursday and you can almost taste the weekend, but you are not done yet. Now, all that stands in between you and freedom is your project due tomorrow, but you need help. You reach out to a classmate for notes on how to the project and they actually respond! There are good people in the world that can lessen your week of hell! Thank you, Mark (the kid in the glasses who sits in the front row)!

You made it!

You somehow survived your hell week and are ready to take on the weekend. Bring on the day drinks people, because tomorrow...

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.

December... it's full of finals, due dates, Mariah Carey, and the holidays. It's the worst time of the year, but the best because after finals, you get to not think about classes for a month and catch up on all the sleep you lost throughout the semester. But what's worse than finals week is the last week of classes, when all the due dates you've put off can no longer be put off anymore.

Thanksgiving break is over and Christmas is just around the corner and that means, for most college students, one hellish thing — finals week. It's the one time of year in which the library becomes over populated and mental breakdowns are most frequent. There is no way to avoid it or a cure for the pain that it brings. All we can do is hunker down with our books, order some Dominos, and pray that it will all be over soon. Luckily, we are not alone in this suffering. To prove it, here are just a few of the many deranged thoughts that go through a college student's mind during finals week.

I know every college student has daily thoughts throughout their day. Whether you're walking on campus or attending class, we always have thoughts running a mile a minute through our heads. We may be wondering why we even showed up to class because we'd rather be sleeping, or when the professor announces that we have a test and you have an immediate panic attack.
