5 Things You Know To Be True During Finals Season

1. Do you even have time to eat?

Every hour of your day is planned with something new: class until 12:00, study for calc exam until 1:00, group project at 3, class at 6…When will I ever have time to go to Chick-Fil-A?

2. Coffee is the new water.

At this point you know you should be going to bed early before the exam, and you’re probably kicking yourself for not preparing a few days earlier. You also know coffee is bad for you, but you drink an unhealthy amount anyway because sleep is for the weak.

3. The library is basically your new home.

Sitting at your desk in your dorm isn’t very efficient when you have candy in your drawer, your phone right at your fingertips, and your bed less than 10 feet away from you. It only takes a second to walk over to your bed and promise yourself you’re only going to sleep for 20 minutes…Only to find yourself red-eyed, confused, hungry, and even more tired 2 hours later.

4. Ice cream is comfort

The Tonight Dough, Half-Baked, or Talenti Caramel Crunch gelato that's twice as expensive? I mean you don't really need it, but it is comforting.

5. Making a billion different plans of what you're going to do the minute finals are over instead of studying.

Am I going home? I wonder what show I'm going to binge watch next on Netflix... I really do need to treat myself to more shopping. Those 30+ hours of sleep I'm about to get are looking real nice.

The Perks of Being a Girl

“I just want you to know that you’re very special… and the only reason I’m telling you is that I don’t know if anyone else ever has.”

With that, here are 15 of the smartest, sassiest ladies gracing our screens that remind us that women do, indeed, rule:
