15 Thoughts Every College Student Has During Finals Week
Georgetown College

For college students, myself included, the two weeks before winter break is the most stressful time of the year. From last-minute tests, homework assignments and moving into the library it's almost impossible to maintain our social lives. Just know if you've thought any of these things during these two weeks, you're not alone.

1. How is it finals week already? It was just summer.

2. It's fine, I'm doing OK in my classes.

Now that it's finals week, it might be time to check your grade portal. Time to calculate what grade you need to get on the final in order to get an A. And then you realize its virtually impossible to score 117 percent.

3. I have to get a good spot at the library, everyone and their mother is going to be there this week.

Time to figure out where the library actually is.

4. Mmm, I studied for about 30 minutes, I think it's time to watch the next episode of that show I'm binge-watching on Netflix.

5. Can I just drop out and become a stripper?

How much money do strippers make nowadays?

6. Annnnd I'm out of coffee again.

7. When did we learn this?

When you finally realize going to class comes in handy. Maybe I should have taken better notes or shown up to a lecture.

8. Maybe if I stare at this page long enough, my brain will begin to absorb the information.

9. Why did I choose to major in [insert major here]?

The time you realize that maybe it isn't worth it.

10. I quit college, I quit life, I'm dropping out.

11. How does my professor expect me to memorize all of this?

100 terms, 50 multiple choice, 50 true/false and five essay questions. I'm basically screwed.

12. I don't know how to do my taxes or any other assets of being an adult, but I know that the mitochondria is the powerhouse of the cell, so close enough, right?

13. I probably should start my final project, which is due next week. Or just wait until the day before it's due, because who doesn't procrastinate.

14. I got this.

Until you look at the study guide and realize you know less than half the answers.

15. Finals week is finally over and all you can do is:


16. And then you realize that it all starts over next semester:

Now that it seems “talking” is the new way to date, and will stay that way until another idiotic term is used to describe the people who can’t settle down and just date someone, I feel as if it’s time to go over the unwritten rules of “talking.”

Rule 1. Having feeling without feeling.

What's up Asshat,

I've composed a list of things that I wish upon you, and they're harsh and cruel. These things are things that I wouldn't wish upon my worst of enemies, not even that Starbuck's barista who always screws up my order, not even him. You fall into a whole other category of hate. You surpass Starbucks barista. Congratulations, I'm actually a pretty nice person, making you worthy of every single bit of torture I wish upon you. What are these things I wish upon you you might ask?
