11 Signs It's Finals Week According To Your Favorite Childhood Cartoons

Carl, Spongebob, and Arnold may never have went to college, but they can still relate to the struggles of finals week. While you're busy working on that 20 page paper, take a break to reminisce with your favorite childhood cartoons!

1. You’re tired pretty much 24/7.

Most people don’t have an ideal sleep schedule during finals. The week is usually spent in an exhausted haze.


2. Therefore naps are unavoidable.

Sure, you haven’t started the five-page essay due tomorrow, but you got like four hours of sleep last night so you nap. Or you fall asleep writing your essay.


3. Comfort food becomes every meal.

Pizza, popcorn, candy, cupcakes… You name it. During finals week, junk food is necessary.


4. Where is the focus?

Actually, just leave it at what IS focus? There are just too many words to read and facts to memorize and all focus goes out the window.


5. You hope that the test format is simple.

Three essays or 10 short answers -- anything like that just isn’t going to float.


6. You start to get a little…weird.

Too much reading and writing, combined with too little sleep, means you get a little loopy.


7. Everything you learned makes no sense.

You try to remember how your professors explained things, but you just kind of remember it like this.


8. Taking breaks is important.

Go for a ride, listen to some music, watch your favorite TV show, or do whatever else to give yourself some time to relax.


9. Sometimes you just want to give up.

All that studying and pressure to succeed can become a lot to handle.


10. Your friends notice your stress.

It’s pretty clear that you’re stressed out, and your friends probably mention it.


11. But even if you’re not doing as well as you want to, it’s OK.

You have to work hard and start somewhere to learn and improve.

There are plenty of obstacles that come when taking care of kids, but it's a very rewarding experience.

As a college student, being a nanny over the summer is both enjoyable and challenging. Underneath the seemingly perfect trips to the pool or countless hours spent playing Monopoly are the obstacles that only nannies will understand. Trading in your valuable summer vacation in return for three months spent with a few children less than half your age may seem unappealing, but so many moments make it rewarding. For my fellow summer nannies out there, I know you can relate.

There are a lot of really easy, common names in the U.S. and while many of those simple names have different spellings, most of the time, pronunciation is not an issue that those people need to worry about. However, others are not as fortunate and often times give up on corrections after a while. We usually give an A+ for effort. So, as you could probably imagine, there are a few struggles with having a name that isn’t technically English. Here are just a few…

Daydreaming

day·dream (ˈdāˌdrēm/): a series of pleasant thoughts that distract one's attention from the present.

Daydreams, the savior of our life in class. Every type of student in the classroom does it at least once, but most cases it is an everyday event, especially in that boring class -- you know the one. But what are we thinking while we are daydreaming?

Puerto Ricans. They are very proud people and whether they were born on the island or born in the United States by Puerto Rican parent(s). It gets even better when they meet another fellow Puerto Rican or Latino in general. You’ll know quickly if they are Puerto Rican whether the flag is printed somewhere on their person or whether they tell you or whether the famous phrase “wepa!” is said.

If it hurts now, it'll hurt again. Not because you're gullible or naive, only because you fall fast, hard, and you do it every time.

We fall each and every time with the complete and utter confidence that someone will be there to catch us. Now that person we SWORE we were never going to fall for has our hearts, and every time we see them our palms start sweating. The butterflies in our stomach start to soar and our hearts are entirely too close to bursting out of our chests.
