11 Things You Experience During Finals Week

Finals week -- it should actually be called Hell week. Because. It. Is. Hell. It is the time of the semester that we all dread (and at the same time wait for because we want it to end already). Nonetheless, it is the most stressfull time of the entire semester, and it will make you want to pull your own hair out. Here are 11 things you notice during this special week.

1. Parking is even more limited than usual.


It's 7 a.m. and you realize there's no parking. Yup, it's finals week at FIU.

2. People actually show up to class.

You'll spend your time in class wondering, "Who the hell is that?"

3. Coffee lines grow beyond proportion.


Want Starbucks? Einstein's? Dunkin'? Bustelo? #GoodLuck

4. Group chat overload.


"Did you study?!" "Send me your notes please." "Omg **** this!"

5.You'll be more sleep deprived than usual.


Bags under my eyes are usually my signature trademark, but when it's finals week, it starts to look more like a black eye.

6. You realize that it's time to actually look at your notes.


Of course, this is when you realize that you probably didn't take notes, or you can't understand them.

7. And you open your textbook for the first time.


So this is what I paid 80 dollars for.

8. You panic when you remember that the final is cumulative.


You suddenly realize that you've forgotten everything since the midterms.

9. You'll cry at least once.


You might even cry when you open the exam and realize that you might be pretty screwed this semester.

10. You'll find yourself in the Christmas spirit, but are still forced to take finals


11. When it's over, you'll push the suffering to the back of your mind. Till' next time.

Tiana would no doubt be disappointed in the food our cafeteria has to offer.

And hopefully she would cook for everyone in her dorm.

She definitley would not take any 8:00 am classes because she would be up late baking and cleaning up the communal kitchen that are available in every dorm.

The dynamics of any friend group are usually determined by the personalities which make it up. Chances are, while personalities may overlap, each person in your friend group holds his or her own place. It is the differences which bring the groups together and keep them functioning.
