11 Times Inside Out Described Your Thoughts During Midterms Week

Midterms week – aka that hell week right before Spring Break where every paper is due, exam is given, and homework is collected – takes a toll on every college student. Wanting nothing more than to sleep and stop worrying about homework – to be somewhere on a beach college students quickly lose motivation during the difficult week leading up to SB. From optimism, to denial, to hatred, to defeat, there is no escaping the struggles of midterms. Disney Pixar’s Inside Out which personifies the emotions of a girl named Riley through five characters (Joy, Sadness, Fear, Disgust, and Anger) – captures these midterm moments perfectly. Here are 11 times Inside Out perfectly describes every college kid during midterms week.


1. Optimism that this year will be different and you will be able to stay motivated to be focused all week so that you can go into Spring Break feeling refreshed and successful.

"All right everyone, fresh start! We're gonna have a good day, which will turn into a good week, which will turn into a good year, which will turn into a good life!" Joy


2. You can't go out because you need to study.

“Goodbye Friendship! Hello Loneliness!” – Sadness


3. You are frustrated, so everything becomes annoying... even the things you love most.

"Congratulations San Francisco! You've ruined pizza!" – Anger


4. You go to the library for the first time all semester.

Sadness: “Wait Joy! You'll get lost in there.”
Joy: “Think positive!”
Sadness: “Okay... I'm positive that you'll get lost in there!”


5. You have been staring at your notes for too long and everything gets all mixed up.

Joy: “All these facts and opinions look the same. I can't tell them apart."
Bing Bong: “Happens to me all the time. Don't worry about it.”


6. You try to encourage your friends to keep focusing, but you can't come up with any more positive things to say.

Joy: "Okay, I admit it, we had a rough start. But think of all the good things that...”
Anger: “No, Joy. There's absolutely no reason for Riley to be happy right now. Let us handle this.”

7. You start to lose all motivation completely.

"I'm too sad to walk. Just give me a few...hours." – Sadness

8. Even your descriptions of how your day was stop making logical sense.

"On a scale of 1-10, I give this day an F." – Disgust

9. You begin to use crying as a coping mechanism.

"Crying helps me slow down and obsess over the weight of life’s problems" – Sadness

10. You decide the best way to express your emotions is too lock yourself in a room and yell about it.

“I say we lock ourselves in our room and use that one swear word we know. It's a good one!” – Anger

11. Even though it was a long week, you made it out alive... and that's what matters.

"All right! We did not die today. I call that an unqualified success!" – Fear


In the end, you will survive midterms, and you WILL get to Spring Break. Hang in there -- We are all in this together!

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.
