Most of us know what finals week feels like, and for those of you who don't, it's not the greatest experience. All-nighters, essays, and exams are just the epitome of a college student's worst nightmare, and it happens to be jammed into five days. But who says you can't have a little fun during this hectic week? So, as you're probably dozing off into your little dream world, procrastinating, and/or taking a small break, here's a compilation of gifs I found on Google to keep you entertained and motivated through these massive monster exams and essays.

The first day of studying seems fine, but then again, maybe not...actually not at all. So, you're definitely a little stressed out,

and you go to your parents for moral support, but they are not comprehensive whatsoever.

And you're just like

but you can't disrespect your parents because they're helping you with your college tuition, so you're forced to keep your cool.

"So, whatever," you think, "I just need to ignore my parents, and get it together by myself."

Thus, the studying begins!


After five minutes you begin to question your decision,

but you know you have to do it in order to do well so you actually focus in and start binge studying everything.

You apply various techniques you learned back in high school like memorizing the equations for the ridiculous math course you totally regret taking,

using Drunk History to help you remember events for your history test,

trying to cram all those essays into one day,

etc.

However, the excessive all-nighters are taking a toll on your health,

and the librarian begins to catch on to your sleepless habits. She tries to force you to leave the library except you know for a fact that there's no way you're leaving this place. You need A's!

So, you pretend you don't understand what she's talking about

and tantalize her.

After a solid ten minutes of trying to get you to leave, the librarian gives up and leaves you alone. You send her your condolences.

After she leaves, accomplishing nothing but distracting you, you begin to have some self-doubt.

Awkwardly, some stranger notices your saddened look and approaches you when you're in your time of despair.

You're just like

But that awkward encounter doesn't even help you! In fact, you're still doubtful and you don't feel like doing the work anymore, but have no fear! Good ole' Shia Labeouf is here to help you out!

So, you begin studying again. You're studying and studying, and then a friend sees you working your tush off! They say, "Hey, isn't tomorrow your first final?"

They continue, "Do you think you're ready?"

"Well, you should probably take a nap to make sure your mind is clear."

They end up feeling threatened

and you acknowledge this, but the inner diva in you cannot be tamed.

"Well...ugh...never mind then," they announce cautiously, descending from you as quickly as possible.

Anyway, morning comes around and it's the day of your first final exam!

You do a little pre-ritual before the test.

As you're taking your test, however, you realize nothing is on the study guide that your professor promised.

You begin to panic as you're taking the test and before you know it, you're finished! But the first exam...well...wasn't easy.

You quickly run to the local convenient store to pick up some sugary delicacy to satisfy your sadness.

However, you're shoving food down your cake-hole as quickly as possible because your next exam is coming fast even though you're incredibly exhausted.

After you rush in and finish the second final...you then finish the third and then the fourth and lastly the fifth...wow, that felt like just a blink of an eye, but you're so delirious you're just like

But when it finally hits you that finals are over, you begin to dance like a college freshman at their first frat party.

After a few days of rest, you begin to wait for your final grades to come out, and twitter is buzzing with your friend's anxious tweets.

The grades are finally up, and you decide to check them,

and "dun dun da da!!!" Your grades were actually da-bomb-dot-com! All that hard work paid off!

After you've seen your awesome grades, you and your friends treat yourselves.

There you go, folks; the entire gif-compilation of finals week! I wish you well during this extravaganza!

College is a crazy, beautiful, amazing whirlwind. It is highly popularized in television and movies, but not necessarily in the most accurate way. Yes, there's frats, dingy dorms, raging house parties—but there's also a lot that people fail to mention.

1. If you thought that you knew how to study, you're wrong.

All of your classes aren't taught every day, so professors aren't on your case constantly about reading and memorizing material. Once you get back that "questionable" first exam grade, you'll kick it into high gear and figure out what works for you

Girl With Bleached Hair
Tumblr

I've been a bleach blonde for over a year now, and let me tell you, it is a lifestyle. More hair appointments, longer showers, and special shampoo. But it is totally worth it!

1. Mentally preparing yourself to convince your hair dresser that white is the way to go.

2. Or the anxiety of what could go wrong by bleaching your hair at home.

3. You could either become a ginger

4. Or a pixie

5. The face you make in the mirror when you take off your towel to unveil the perfect white strands.

6. Taking a million selfies the day you bleached it, because you know your roots will be back in literally 2 days.

7. Having to get bangs or a big chop because your hair is so damaged.

8. Having orange highlights in between touch-ups.

9. Going out for a drink afterwards to debut your updated look.

Despite the struggles, you love your platinum blonde hair! You make sure Instagram knows it, too. You don't need a filter, because the color is flawless by itself!

I've been at this college thing for almost three and a half years, and while I thought that high school was truly the lowest point of my existence, I'm beginning to realize that it was a walk in the park. Like, I miss the days when the biggest white lie I told my parents was my made up excuse about being late for fourth period. These days, the white lies are a tad more complex, and as ashamed as I am to admit it, I've definitely told a few of these.

As most of us already know, Friends is one of the greatest television series ever produced. The cast is genius. The humor never gets old. The episodes are relatable and timeless.

I can easily say that I have watched each season at least three times and I belly laugh harder every time. All Friends fans can agree that there are certain lines that form a bond between us and when heard one cannot help but laugh.
