ATTENTION! The week from Hell is about to begin (if it hasn't already)... Finals Week.

*insert screams of terror and cries of exhaustion*

So pull yourself together and get your focus on. Here are a few suggestions on how to cope with the tears, stress, and sleep-deprivation that comes along with finals.

1. Domino's

Order a few pies- Y'all know someone's going to want seconds and thirds.

2. Puppies

"Aww they are so cute" -- said by every basic college girl (including myself)...

3. Dunks

...Even Gronk knows you can get through these finals with a lil bit of Dunks...

4. Dogs


5. Juul Vape Break

6. Some more puppies

Come on, they are supposed to relieve stress, the more the merrier.

7. Comfy clothes

Fur, sweatpants, tanks, whatever you consider 'comfy', bring em' out.

8. Music

Whether your walking to the library, slowly StuDying in the library, or are slowly dosing in the library (LOL), some background noise sometimes helps absorb any and all info.

9. Cats

Clearly, a dog person but can't forget about these fur balls. Take frequent pet therapy breaks.

10. Dance Party

Yes, I encourage sporadic movements of dance in your dorm room while blasting Migos, Cardi B, or Lil Dicky in the background. (Praise to Lil Dicky).

11. Treat yo' Self

Who cares what you eat during finals, IT'S FINALS. Go to that vending machine and snag some Fruit Snacks, M&Ms, or Sour Patch because YOU deserve that shit.

12. G.T.L: Gym, Tan, Lounge

Ok, so maybe skip the lounge part but you can totally run it out in the spring sun and get a gucci workout in! Say goodbye to those vending machine goodies and hello to a golden shine.

All in all, finals week comes and goes; it doesn't last forever. So give it your all and remember these 12 suggestions next time you feel like you've hit a wall in studying.

YOU GOT THIS!!

Much love,

xoxo

Today I started my third week of college at Minnesota State Moorhead. I have survived welcome week, finding my classes on the first day, and being an awkward loner in the dining hall. Even though I have yet to be here for a month, I have already experienced many thoughts and problems that only a new college student can relate to.

"Make sure to get involved when you're in college!"

We've all heard some variation of this phrase, whether it came from parents, other family members, friends, RAs, or college-related articles. And, like many clichés, it's true for the most part. Getting involved during your college years can help you make friends, build your resume, and feel connected to your campus. However, these commitments can get stressful if you're dealing with personal issues, need to work, or aren't sure how to balance classes and everything else going on during the semester.

In college, one of the essential things to have is friends. Yes, textbooks, a laptop, and other school supplies are important but friends are essential. Friends are that support system everybody needs. The more friends you have the better the support system you have. But you also have someone to share experiences with. And don’t settle for just one or two friends because 8 out of 10 times they are busy and you are studying all alone. Or they have other friend groups that do not include you. Don’t settle for just one or two friends; make as many friends as you can. After the first couple of weeks of college, most friend groups are set and you may be without friends.

For a moment your world is spinning. The phone alarm has just scared you awake and you’re flooded by daunting thoughts of the day ahead. You have three assignments due and little time to work on them because of your job. You’re running late because you’ve hit snooze one to many times after yesterday’s long hours. You dizzily reach for a hoodie, craving its comfort, and rush for a speedy exit, praying you will have time to pick up coffee. Does this sound familiar?

Finals week is upon us. It is a magical time of year during which college students everywhere flock to the library in attempt to learn a semester's worth of knowledge in only a week.
