Let's be real. Everyone hates Finals Week. It's the last week of the semester, and the weather is (finally) nice out. The absolute last thing I want to do right now is to spend the week studying for exams that I'm going to forget entirely the moment I finish them.

I'm sure you can relate. Here are thirteen things I'd rather be doing than studying for final exams right now.

1. Suffering a head-to-toe sunburn.

Hey, at least I'd be out in the sun, right?

2. Sitting still for a week straight getting a tattoo.

The end result would be totally worth it.

3. Filing my nails.

I may be in the minority, but I can't stand that feeling.

4. Banging my head against a wall repeatedly.

I mean, finals make you want to do that anyway.

5. Piercing every single one of my appendages simultaneously.

At least the pain wears off eventually.

6. Watching all of the Lord of The Rings movies.

I hear some people actually do this for fun.

7. Listening to nothing but NPR for a week.

Maybe I'd still learn something.

8. Listening to "Shut Up And Dance" by Walk The Moon on repeat for 24 hours.

I absolutely cannot stand that song.

9. Eating nothing but spinach for a week.

Okay, a week might be pushing it. A day, for sure.

10. Be stuck on Disney's "It's A Small World" ride for a whole day.

Not the greatest ride to be stuck on, but it's still Disney World, right?

11. Doing 1,000 pushups.

Yeah, I'm not in great shape.

12. Getting every single one of my teeth pulled.

And I hate the dentist. And, obviously...

13. SLEEPING!

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.

December... it's full of finals, due dates, Mariah Carey, and the holidays. It's the worst time of the year, but the best because after finals, you get to not think about classes for a month and catch up on all the sleep you lost throughout the semester. But what's worse than finals week is the last week of classes, when all the due dates you've put off can no longer be put off anymore.
