3 Tips for A Successful Finals Week

Finals week is upon us. And through the chaos of the overcrowded library and the halls full of procrastinating students, here's a few tips for a successful finals week.

1. Study, Don't Procrastinate.

A lot of people just have the mindset that they don't have to study, that they usually get decent grades without spending any time reviewing. But a lot of times a final can either make or break your grade for a class, so why not put in a little extra time studying for a class you're a little iffy in. Don't have too much fun with all the free time you'll have with no classes, use the time wisely and don't procrastinate and just study an hour before an exam. You'll feel a lot more confident and ready for your final exams if you study for them.

2. Take a Stress Relieving Break.

Although it is important to really buckle down and study for your finals, it's also very important to give your mind a rest every now and then. You can't spend 10 hours straight cramming a ton of information into your head, your brain needs a break every few hours. I like to reward myself with a break every few hours by grabbing a snack with my friends, watching a movie,or going to the gym for a while just to get your head clear. It's important to relieve some stress, especially during finals week.

3. Don't Forget to Eat.

A lot of times people lose track of time when they lock themselves in a library study room all day. It's important to not forget to eat because your body also needs energy to keep you on top of your game. A healthy mind and a healthy body are a key to success during finals week.

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.

I was asked so many times why I wanted to go to a small school when a big university is so much better. Don't get me wrong, I'm sure a big university is great but I absolutely love going to a small school. I know that I miss out on big sporting events and having people actually know where it is. I can't even count how many times I've been asked where it is and I know they won't know so I just say "somewhere in the middle of Wisconsin." But, I get to know most people at my school and I know my professors very well. Not to mention, being able to walk to the other side of campus in 5 minutes at a casual walking pace. I am so happy I made the decision to go to school where I did. I love my school and these are just a few reasons why.
