It is that time of the year again. You probably think I'm talking about the wonderful magical time of Christmas, right? Wrong, I'm talking about the dreaded week of finals. It doesn't matter if it is your first round of finals or your last the stress and pressure of them never fully goes away. "But you have dead week to prepare. It isn't that bad." Excuse me while I laugh at that statement because have you seen a dead week schedule, it might actually be worse than finals week itself. Here are 20 terrible things I would rather do than prepare/take my finals.


1. Go to the dentist.

2. Watch two hours of Fox news.

3. Work a double.

4. Have to drink decaf coffee for a week.

5. Get a shot.

6. Watch a movie you hate.

7. Sit in standstill traffic.

8. Not be able to get into your favorite bar for a week.

9. Have to eat a weeks worth of meals you dislike.

10. Deal with old high school drama.

11. Stub your toe.


12. Not have a Netflix account all of Christmas break.

13. Spend all day cooking a meal only to ruin it in the end.

14. Have to watch UofL play sports.

15. Fall in love with shoes only to find out they are out of your size and backordered until after season.

16. Drop your favorite makeup and it shatter.

17. Have to wear your clothes inside-out for a week.

18. Sit in on a four+ hour long flight with three screaming babies.

19. Watch a "final thoughts: Tomi" video.

20. Show up to a concert only to realize you forgot the tickets and will miss half of the show now.


Good luck and happy finals, ya'll.

18 Things I Want To Do Now That I'm 18

I'm technically an adult, so I'm legally required to live a little, right?

For the entirety of my high school career, I was always seen as the goody-two-shoes. I never got in trouble with a teacher, I kept stellar grades, and when I wasn't doing extracurricular activities, I was at home studying. Even when I did go out, it was usually with a bunch of fellow band geeks. The night would end before 11:00 PM and the only controversial activity would be a fight based on who unfairly won a round of Apples-to-Apples when someone else clearly had a better card (I promise I'm not still holding a grudge).

Now that I'm officially an adult, I want to pursue some new things. I want to experience life in a way that I never allowed myself to do prior to entering college. These are the years that I'm supposed to embark on a journey of self-discovery, so what better way to do that than to create a bucket list?

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.
