50 Things You Do Not Want To Hear Around Finals Week
Melanie Champlin

Here are some things no college student wants to hear around finals week.

1. The final is cumulative.

2. There are no multiple choice.

3. Oh, and also the test is at 8 a.m.

4. How many finals do you have?

5. Oh, I only have one.

6. It's on the first day.

7. I can't wait to go home.

8. It's a really easy class, I'm not too worried.

9. I probably won't even study.

10. Wanna go to the bar?

11. It's BOGO night!

12. Are you sure?

13. Fine, I'll ask your roommate.

14. You look really tired, maybe you should take a break from studying.

15. Are you feeling well?

16. Why does that textbook look like the pages got wet?

17. The campus book store won't buy it back if you've cried on it.

18. OMG! I have a friend who took that class.

19. Yeah, they failed the final. I guess it was really hard.

20. Good luck, though!

21. So there's this really cool show on Netflix you should check out.

22. It's only three seasons, you could do it in, like, two days.

23. Have you stopped crying today?

24. This week?

25. In general?

26. Do you have any declining left?

27. Oh, I was gonna say let's go get pizza.

28. Are you absolutely sure you don't want to take a break?

29. Just checking.

30. I'm kind of worried about you.

31. We ran out of coffee.

32. Starbucks is closed.

33. The dining hall is closed, you just missed it.

34. You don't have enough money for takeout.

35. I am well rested and more than ready for this final!

36. Oh, man, that was harder than I thought it would be.

37. You look really tired.

38. I don't think you need to study that much, you should go to sleep.

39. Well, maybe if you had gone to class and done the work you wouldn't be cramming the day before the final.

40. It's your fault really.

41. The quiet floor in the library is full.

42. We're having a party tonight because we're done with finals -- wanna come?

43. You're still studying?

44. If you cram too hard, you'll forget everything.

45. So, I'd stop studying and come out with us, just for a hour!

46. I knew you'd come around!

47. OMG, you only got that on your final?

48. Maybe you shouldn't have gone out with us.

49. And you probably should have studied more.

50. Better luck next semester!

Good luck with finals, everyone!

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

Whether you met your new love interest online, through mutual friends, or another way entirely, you'll definitely want to know what you're getting into. I mean, really, what's the point in entering a relationship with someone if you don't know whether or not you're compatible on a very basic level?

Consider these 21 questions to ask in the talking stage when getting to know that new guy or girl you just started talking to:

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.
