The week you'll never forget.

10 Experiences During Midterms
Gstatic

It's Midterm week and we're all wishing we could have more time to study, sleep, and kiss the fun goodbye. Midterm week-when you're on such a high that you breathe vectors, swallow series, and digest code. Midterm week. Bring it on.


1. Realizing that the exam is a big percentage of your grade.

You wish you took better notes, spent longer on the homework, and payed attention in class.

2.The stress levels are through the roof.

The campus is filled with kids who make many study guides and stare at their notes until they have to take the test. You'll find them camping out in the hallway, bothering the TAs, chilling in the library, or just watching Netflix.

3. Exhaustion.

You sleep for 1 hr. You study for 6 hrs. You don't know what time of day it is. All you know is that there are T-24 hours until you have to take your test. Power naps all the way.

4. Your priorities change.

You don't care how you look. You forget to eat. Study groups are your lifelines . You'll bond with your classmates and complain endlessly about the class.

5. After cramming, you'll realize you're really a genius.

Somehow you've retained enough information to pass the class or maybe even excel. Maybe the procrastination wasn't a bad idea. Worse case, you can just NR the class.

Rule 1. Having feeling without feeling.

I've lived a whole 21 years with an RBF (Resting Bitch Face), so naturally, I go through most of these struggles on a daily basis.

What's up Asshat,

I've composed a list of things that I wish upon you, and they're harsh and cruel. These things are things that I wouldn't wish upon my worst of enemies, not even that Starbuck's barista who always screws up my order, not even him. You fall into a whole other category of hate. You surpass Starbucks barista. Congratulations, I'm actually a pretty nice person, making you worthy of every single bit of torture I wish upon you. What are these things I wish upon you you might ask?
