7. Throw a New Year's party.

8. See "The Last Jedi."

9. Visit with friends from home.

10. Work off that Christmas food.

11. Come up with a New Year's Resolution.

12. Build a snowman.

13. Make a little $$.

14. Continue to catch up on all the sleep that you lost.

15. See "Pitch Perfect 3."

16. Go ice skating.

17. Try to avoid the Instagram pictures of your friends at tropical warm places.

18. Have a snowball fight.

19. Do all of the laundry that you have avoided.

20. Get the pedicure that you so desperately need.

You take out your textbook and notes, but don't have the energy to actually read them.

You keep reading the same sentence over and over, but it still doesn't make sense.

You can’t focus, and your roommate suggests you go to the library.

You realize there are still over 50 pages left to read.

You reach the two-hour mark of studying and get delirious and want to give up.

You take a Netflix and snack break.

Your friends told you they were staying in with you to study, but they end up going out.

Your friends ask why you need to study instead of having fun.

Your friends send you pictures of them out having fun, but you're stuck in the library and want to run away.

You walk out of the test and realize staying in and studying was worth it because you definitely aced it.
