Finals. It's almost a dirty word on a college campus, like talking about "he who must not be named" in Hogwarts. It's a love-hate relationship (OK, pretty much all hate) because it means that summer is right around the corner, but first, you have to suffer through the tortures of all-night cram sessions, coffee overdoses, and little-to-no food. During this long, stressful journey, college students all have the same thoughts bouncing around in their heads.
1. Why?
2. Why did I take this class?
3. Why did I pick this major?
4. The professor literally never said ANYTHING about this in class.
5. When will I ever need to know what an ice core sample is used for?
6. Why do we take all of the finals in one week?
7. How long do I need for a nap to really count?
8. I don't care, just want to sleep.
9. OK, I have to get out of my room or I will sleep through my exams.
10. The library is always a good place to study, right?
11. To get an A in the class, I need a 190 on the final.
12. Well, I think I can get at least a B on it.
13. But as long as I get a C, I’ll pass the class.
14. Why does the professor grade out of a thousand?
15. When do I eat?
16. What do I eat?
17. I'm too tired to eat.
18. Can I learn all of this information in just one day?
19. Why didn't I take any notes in class?
20. Why didn't I go to class?
21. Wait. I just read that sentence 11 times in a row.
22. And I have no idea what it said.
23. I just want to watch a Netflix.
24. If I start watching right now, I’ll still have enough time to finish studying by 2 a.m.
25. NO. Focus. You got this.
26. Ok, one episode.
27. Ok, eight episodes...
28. Should I pull an all-nighter?
29. Only one more week of this, then it's home free.
30. I still have to pack up all my stuff.
31. But then, summer classes.
