Finals season is officially here for most college students and this means its time to turn off your phone, and start studying (well, kind of). These six things are what every college student feels, thinks, or does during the worse 2 weeks of the semester.

1. Grind, Grind, Grind

All you do is look at notes that make no sense and try your best to figure everything out and pray a whole lot before your exam.

2. Thinking 5 O'clock In The Morning Is A Normal Time To Sleep

The hours just seem to go so much faster when you have so much to study for.

3. Really Thinking If Getting A Degree Is Worth It

Thinking about all the other jobs that will pay off all your bills in the future, while still struggling to make it through four years of hell.

4. Crying Because You Feel None of Your Dreams Are Going To Come True

You have the constant anxiety that your gonna fail all of your exams and the med school you have always dreamed of going to seems like a distant memory.

5. Realizing That Coffee Is Equivalent to Water

That 8 cups of water that your suppose to drink every day suddenly turns into 8 cups of coffee.

6. Counting Down The Days To Break

So, is it Christmas yet?

Finals season is one of the most traumatizing weeks any college student has to go through during their time at college. No matter what happens it is always a learning experience that everyone who goes to college has to go through. Work hard and study smart!

Even though I have yet to be here for a month, I have already experienced many thoughts and problems that only a new college student can relate to.

"Make sure to get involved when you're in college!"

We've all heard some variation of this phrase, whether it came from parents, other family members, friends, RAs, or college-related articles. And, like many clichés, it's true for the most part. Getting involved during your college years can help you make friends, build your resume, and feel connected to your campus. However, these commitments can get stressful if you're dealing with personal issues, need to work, or aren't sure how to balance classes and everything else going on during the semester.

In college, one of the essential things to have is friends. Yes, textbooks, a laptop, and other school supplies are important but friends are essential. Friends are that support system everybody needs. The more friends you have the better the support system you have. But you also have someone to share experiences with. And don’t settle for just one or two friends because 8 out of 10 times they are busy and you are studying all alone. Or they have other friend groups that do not include you. Don’t settle for just one or two friends; make as many friends as you can. After the first couple of weeks of college, most friend groups are set and you may be without friends.

For a moment your world is spinning. The phone alarm has just scared you awake and you’re flooded by daunting thoughts of the day ahead. You have three assignments due and little time to work on them because of your job. You’re running late because you’ve hit snooze one to many times after yesterday’s long hours. You dizzily reach for a hoodie, craving its comfort, and rush for a speedy exit, praying you will have time to pick up coffee. Does this sound familiar?

Finals week is upon us. It is a magical time of year during which college students everywhere flock to the library in attempt to learn a semester's worth of knowledge in only a week.
