11 People You Meet During Finals Week

Finals week tends to bring out the worst in people. The lack of sleep, addition of caffeine, and adrenaline make people question their sanity. It is the most brutal week of the entire semester. These are just a few of the people you will meet during finals week.

1. "The Caffeine Addict."

This college student has been gearing up for the last few weeks of classes and finals. They have the ability to consume a pot of coffee by themselves.

2. "The Stress Eater."

This college student relies on the really good french fries in the cafeteria or the millions of the boxes of mac and cheese that are in their room to help with the stress and anxiety of finals week.

3. "The Library Hermit."

This college student practically lives in the library buried under papers and books. You usually find them at a single desk in the corner of the library freaking out about their five exams.

4. "The Night Owl."

This college student willingly stays up until four in the morning to ensure they know everything for their finals and then sleeps all day.

5. "The Procrastinator."

This college student does everything in their power not to study for their finals. Too tired, guess it's time for a nap. New episode of their favorite show put online, gotta watch that.

6. "The Sand Man."

The college student is so tired they have the ability to fall asleep anywhere. It doesn't matter if it's in the cafeteria while eating dinner, studying in the library, or in the shower.

7. "The Mad Scientist."

This college student is a science major. You question their sanity after looking at the entire white board they have filled with their practice problems. To you it looks like hieroglyphics.

8. "The Crier."

This college student has multiple breakdowns through out the day. This is their cathartic way of working through the stress and anxiety.

9. "The Tasmanian Devil."

This college student is the one that loses their mind. Everyone is genuinely concerned for their well-being, yet no one knows how to help them.

10. "The Walking Dead."

This college student is questioned about how they are functioning. They have pulled about five all-nighters and everyone wants to know how they haven't died yet.

11. "The Mom."

This college student has all the supplies. They have all the snacks, water bottles, and tissues to pass out to help everyone conquer through.

Though finals week is tough, somehow you get through! Keep on pushing through, summer is almost here.

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. 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.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
