39 Things You Think During Midterms Week

Her Campus at Oregon

It's that time of the year: MIDTERMS. The time of the semester when it seems like everything is due at once. The time of the semester when you have so much to do you don't even know where to start. Its a tough time, but hey, at least it sucks for pretty much everyone.

Here's just a few things that have gone through my mind this week:

1. Why did I take all of these classes at the same time?

2. How bad would it be if I dropped this class?

3. Do I REALLY need this class to graduate?

4. If I fail this test can I still pass the class?

5) WHAT WAS I THINKING TAKING THESE CLASSES AT THE SAME TIME?

6. What GPA do I have to have to keep Zell miller/ hope/ my scholarships?

7. Does this professor know that this isn't the only class I'm taking?

8. Maybe I should just drop out and become a nun/monk.

9. Wow I suck at this, maybe I should I should switch my major...

10....but I can't because I suck more at everything else...

11. ...but what if I don't...

12. ...FOCUS PLEASE BRAIN THANK YOU

13. Why can't I remember this crap, I feel like I haven't attended a day of class.

14. Where was my brain when we learned this?

15. I'm still pretty and funny, at least I have that...

16. ...right?

17. Gosh, I should've recorded these lectures, my notes suck...

18. ... heck I can't even read my own notes.

19. Maybe I can just quit, find a man, and become a housewife and a mother. (sorry guys, y'all don't quite have this option)

20. OMG PUPPY VIDEOS ON FACEBOOK!

21. OMG why did I spend so much time watching puppy videos on Facebook

22. HOW IS ALL OF THIS STUFF DUE IN THE SAME WEEK, ARE YOU JOKING???

23. I hate school.

24. Woah, how are the bags under my eyes that dark...?

25. My brain has reached its absorptive capacity.

26. I literally can't learn anything else.

27. What does any of this mean?

28. HIT ME WITH A CAR SO I DON'T HAVE TO TAKE MY MIDTERMS

29. Should I study this marathon style or break it up over a few days?

30. Why did I wait this long to review this stuff?!

31. (Trying to speak English) La promlens stans..... Wait that wasn't even English... or any language I know...

32. Ahh so many things to do but I'm so tired but I can't shut my brain off so I can sleep...

33. Wait did we even learn this? What is this, Russian?

34. How much coffee does it take to die of a caffeine overdose, because I'm getting pretty close I think!

35. Am I supposed to know when my panic attacks are coming? How can you tell?

36. (Panic attack comes)

37. (Tears and mutterings)

38. (Panic attack ends) glad that's over, now back to work!

39. Is it Friday yet?

Okay, yes, I'm over exaggerating a little bit (except kinda not really). At the end of the day, you're going to be fine. It's a tough week, but it helps knowing that it'll will pass and everything will be fine no matter how well you do. It's a comfort to know that you're not the only one swamped.

I hope every college student reading this did well on their exams and that they found some roses among the thorns!

Living Away From Home, As Described By 'Friends'

For better or for worse

"Friends" maybe didn’t have everything right or realistic all the time, but they did have enough episodes to create countless reaction GIFs and enough awesomeness to create, well, the legacy they did. Something else that is timeless, a little rough, but memorable? Living away from the comforts of home. Whether you have an apartment, a dorm, your first house, or some sort of residence that is not the house you grew up in, I’m sure you can relate to most of these!

But, more than likely, you're probably just trying to mentally cope with listening to a boring lecturer drone on and on. Perhaps some of the following Aristotle-esque thoughts have popped into your head during class.

From Louise's crazy antics to Tina's deadpan self-confidence, whether they are planning ways to take over school or craft better burgers, the Belchers know how to have fun. They may not be anywhere close to organized or put together, but they do offer up some wise words once and awhile.
