5 Thoughts Going Into A Stressful Week
Victoria Heath

As we have now entered into a new semester of a new school year, we have settled into our classes and our new routines. Going into my last year of college, I know all too well about some of the very stressful weeks that I have had. It sometimes seems as though all the teachers get together and plan how to make a particular week as stressful and busy with work as possible! Every semester, I seem to have a week or two (besides finals and midterms) where I have multiple tests and projects due.

For me, that week starts tomorrow and continues on into the next week. So, I really have two very stressful weeks back to back. They are both loaded with tests, presentations, quizzes, and of course my medical school interview which adds a whole level of stress to my already stressed out mind. I am writing this today in hopes of relieving some stress before I deep dive into this week, and I know that many other people can relate to this as well!

1. Just a quick mental freak out moment ensues


A mental breakdown for a moment when you realize how much you have to do in a short amount of time.

2. How am I going to get it all done?


The next stage is wondering how you are going to do it all.

3. I don't have time!


Where am I going to get the time to do all of this!

4. I should have started earlier...


Regretting not starting earlier on everything.

5. Why do I do all of this?



In the beginning, I usually do wonder why I do all of this. But in the end, I know what my goal is and even though things are tough right now I know they will all pay off in the end!

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.

December... it's full of finals, due dates, Mariah Carey, and the holidays. It's the worst time of the year, but the best because after finals, you get to not think about classes for a month and catch up on all the sleep you lost throughout the semester. But what's worse than finals week is the last week of classes, when all the due dates you've put off can no longer be put off anymore.
