The 5 Things Everyone Feels During Finals Week

Because all bad things (finals week) suck, but will eventually come to an end

1. Stress. Lots and lots of Stress

It'd honesty inevitable that anywhere from 1 to 6 cumulative exams will make you feel some type of way, and usually that way isn't good. From cramming the night before, to realizing you have half an hour to relax between two massive tests (my reality), the stress is bound to be there.

2. Hungry (and willing to eat anything)

Calories don't count during finals week, right? When you're studying at all hours of the day, and need to sneak a meal in, you'll eat basically whatever is easiest to get. This goes along with the stress too- you just eat more when you're taken over by stress, it's just how things work

3. Exhausted

No amount of coffee, no number of energy drinks, and no amount of power naps can stop us from feeling full exhaustion throughout the entire week. Believe me.

4. Comfort

Honestly, this is only because every moment spent in the library happens in the most comfortable attire. There will be people shamelessly walking around in pajamas no matter what time of day it is

5. Relief

This is only to say after hell week ends, but it really does happen. Being done with a full semester and studying for hours on end gets to end at some point, and it really does feel good. As finals week has just begun, and the end seems nowhere near, take this as a time to remember that the relief you'll feel when it's all over is beyond worth it.

I think the hardest thing about going away to college is figuring out how to become an adult. Leaving a household where your parents took care of literally everything (thanks, Mom!) and suddenly becoming your own boss is overwhelming. I feel like I'm doing a pretty good job of being a grown-up, but once in awhile I do something that really makes me feel like I'm #adulting. Twenty-somethings know what I'm talking about.

I went to a small high school, like 120-people-in-my-graduating-class small. It definitely had some good and some bad, and if you also went to a small high school, I’m sure you’ll relate to the things that I went through.

1. If something happens, everyone knows about it

Who hooked up with whom at the party? Yeah, heard about that an hour after it happened. You failed a test? Sorry, saw on Twitter last period. Facebook fight or, God forbid, real fight? It was on half the class’ Snapchat story half an hour ago. No matter what you do, someone will know about it.

Chandler Bing

I'm assuming that we've all heard of the hit 90's TV series, Friends, right? Who hasn't? Admittedly, I had pretty low expectations when I first started binge watching the show on Netflix, but I quickly became addicted.

Without a doubt, Chandler Bing is the most relatable character, and there isn't an episode where I don't find myself thinking, Yup, Iam definitely the Chandler of my friend group.

Working with the public can be a job, in and of itself. Some people are just plain rude for no reason. But regardless of how your day is going, always having to be in the best of moods, or at least act like it... right?

1. When a customer wants to return a product, hands you the receipt, where is printed "ALL SALES ARE FINAL" in all caps.

2. Just because you might be having a bad day, and you're in a crappy mood, doesn't make it okay for you to yell at me or be rude to me. I'm a person with feelings, just like you.

3. People refusing to be put on hold when a customer is standing right in front of you. Oh, how I wish I could just hang up on you!
