The most stressful time of the year is upon us, finals. I hate finals so much, and there are a variety of reasons why, however, I will only mention the three that I feel are the most important:

1. Final essays/projects/presentations before your actually final

Do you ever have that one professor who hands you that last minute assignment the week before finals start and you are going completely insane because you know you need to start studying for your finals, but you also have to work on that assignment. So you are basically stressed beyond repair and coffee becomes your best friend.

2. Trying to learn an entire semester's worth of information in one night

Finals are that time of the year when everyone gets super cranky, annoyed, and is basically on the verge of a mental breakdown trying to relearn something that was taught at the beginning of the semester. It's like I don't even understand what we learned last week and you want me to remember something from 4 months ago, when I was probably asleep anyway. I mean that is so unfair, and very threatening to my health.

3. What is sleep????

Sleep is just non-existent! You have so much stuff to do that you basically forget how tired you are, drink a SHIT ton of caffeine, and stay up all night trying to get your life together. You do everything you can to bump that C- to at least a C. It is a real struggle.

Finals are terrible, and they are really bad for your health. But that is the life of a college student.
