If you’re reading this that means that you made it out of
seeming endless black hole that is midterms. So take a breath and congratulate yourself because you are still alive. While this may seem like a small feat, keep in mind that you are now over halfway there. So, here is a comprehensive list of things (in order) to do to recover from midterm and get back in the swing of things.
1. Take a nap. You were up for hours upon hours studying, if you deserve anything right now, it’s to shut your eyes wherever you see fit and get some shut eye.   Â
2.Eat a salad. When in times of stress, the 20 something tends to revert back to their natural state of being: junk food. All-nighters are not kind to the body so do yourself a favor and munch on some veggies. Your body will thank you in the long run.Â
3. Go to class. It may seem like you dodged the bullet, but just remember that finals are right around the corner. You can’t afford to start ditching class now. It may seem daunting at first, but just remember that there is still fall and thanksgiving break standing between you and D Day.
4.Take another nap. I cannot stress the importance of napping. Especially considering our age and living in the college environment.Â
5. Start studying for the final now. It will seem a lot less daunting then, if you start preparing for it now. Â Â Â
Head my words and this semester will be over before you know it.
