15 Michael Scott Quotes That Perfectly Sum Up Finals Week

It's December and we all know what that means: FINALS WEEK!

*a collective cry is heard across the nation*

OK, let's be real. If you're a college student, you dread hearing the words "finals" and "week" in the same sentence because it means you are about to spend the next seven days drowning in a combination of work, caffeine, and your own tears.

Here are some quotes Michael Scott has said that perfectly sum up the tragic finals week experience:

1. When you stay up all night writing a paper about a topic you know nothing about that's due at 8 a.m.:

2. When you realize that the members of your group project are still making you do all the work:

3. When you remember the phrase "C's get degrees" and stop trying completely:

4. When you walk into the library and there isn't a single place to sit:


5. When you start to justify using Wikipedia as a valid source:

6. When you're bitter about your friends going out while you stay in to do work:

7. When you're too busy studying that you forget to eat healthy brain food:

8. When you open up your textbook for the first time all semester and realize you're f***ed:

9. When you "just wing it" on an exam and hope for the best:

10. When you have a presentation due in less than 12 hours:

11. When you realize you have no money left because you've spent it all on food:

12. When your professors take an absurd amount of time to post your final grades:

13. When you start hating everyone and everything around you because of the stress:

14. When you contemplate dropping out of school and moving to a foreign country:

15. When you hand in your last final and you feel as if your soul has left your body:

I know every college student has daily thoughts throughout their day. Whether you're walking on campus or attending class, we always have thoughts running a mile a minute through our heads. We may be wondering why we even showed up to class because we'd rather be sleeping, or when the professor announces that we have a test and you have an immediate panic attack.

The Great Christmas Movie Debate

"A Christmas Story" is the star on top of the tree.

The Great Christmas Movie Debate
Mental Floss

One staple of the Christmas season is sitting around the television watching a Christmas movie with family and friends. But of the seemingly hundreds of movies, which one is the star on the tree? Some share stories of Santa to children ("Santa Claus Is Coming to Town"), others want to spread the Christmas joy to adults ("It's a Wonderful Life"), and a select few are made to get laughs ("Elf"). All good movies, but merely ornaments on the Christmas tree of the best movies. What tops the tree is a movie that bridges the gap between these three movies, and makes it a great watch for anyone who chooses to watch it. Enter the timeless Christmas classic, "A Christmas Story." Created in 1983, this movie holds the tradition of capturing both young and old eyes for 24 straight hours on its Christmas Day marathon. It gets the most coverage out of all holiday movies, but the sheer amount of times it's on television does not make it the greatest. Why is it,
then? A Christmas Story does not try to tell the tale of a Christmas miracle or use Christmas magic to move the story. What it does do though is tell the real story of Christmas. It is relatable and brings out the unmatched excitement of children on Christmas in everyone who watches. Every one becomes a child again when they watch "A Christmas Story."

It's the most wonderful time of the year! Christmas is one of my personal favorite holidays because of the Christmas traditions my family upholds generation after generation. After talking to a few of my friends at college, I realized that a lot of them don't really have "Christmas traditions" in their family, and I want to help change that. Here's a list of Christmas traditions that my family does, and anyone can incorporate into their family as well!

It’s here; that time of year when college students turn into preschoolers again. We cry for our mothers, eat everything in sight, and whine when we don’t get our way. It’s finals, the dreaded time of the semester when we all realize we should have been paying attention in class instead of literally doing anything else but that. Everyone has to take them, and yes, unfortunately, they are inevitable. But just because they are here and inevitable does not mean they’re peaches and cream and full of rainbows. Surviving them is a must, and the following five phases are a reality for all majors from business to art, nursing to history.
