10 Thoughts You Have During Finals Week

Oh, finals week... The time of eating too much and not sleeping enough-- We're all in the same stressed out boat. Whether you're in high school or college, you know the struggle is real. Here are 10 things everyone goes through during the dreaded finals week.

1. Realizing you REALLY should have written that down during lecture because you won't "just remember it"


2. Planning your night like "If I study until 11:30 I can sleep until 5:30 and get about 6 hours of sleep and then study for another two hours before class" and still being exhausted the next morning

3. Eating an entire pint of ice cream isn't that bad... right?

4. Only lightly sobbing when you see you need a 125% on your final to get your 75% in math to an A-

5. When you've been starring at a blank page for an hour attempting to type a 12-page paper, trying to convince yourself not to drop out now

6. Reading the same sentence over and over again and not comprehending it because you're so. damn. tired.

7. Walking out of the library thinking it's 9pm but its 2am

8. Emailing professors subtly begging for any point of extra credit they can offer

9. Complaining to everyone about how you don't want to be studying and just want sleep

10. That glorious moment when you finally finish and you're able to lay in bed and relax. But then realize you completely forgot to do something, but you're too tired to care.

Even though finals are a complete struggle bus, we all get through it someway or another. Eat all of the ice cream and drink all of the coffee you want, and just know in a week you'll be free to sleep in until noon again. Best of luck on all of your finals!

18 Things I Want To Do Now That I'm 18

I'm technically an adult, so I'm legally required to live a little, right?

Happy Birthday Cake

For the entirety of my high school career, I was always seen as the goody-two-shoes. I never got in trouble with a teacher, I kept stellar grades, and when I wasn't doing extracurricular activities, I was at home studying. Even when I did go out, it was usually with a bunch of fellow band geeks. The night would end before 11:00 PM and the only controversial activity would be a fight based on who unfairly won a round of Apples-to-Apples when someone else clearly had a better card (I promise I'm not still holding a grudge).

Now that I'm officially an adult, I want to pursue some new things. I want to experience life in a way that I never allowed myself to do prior to entering college. These are the years that I'm supposed to embark on a journey of self-discovery, so what better way to do that than to create a bucket list?

So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.
