6 Things I'd Rather Be Doing Than Studying For Finals Told By Christmas Music
Kameron Hurley


"YOU’RE A MEAN ONE, MR.FINAL’S, YOU ‘RE AS CHARMING AS AN EEL"

1.) Sleeping

“SLEEP IN HEAVENLY PEACE”
Yes, we know nobody ever goes to bed early in college but when it comes to finals you could be up for days at a time, not even studying. You could enjoy a nice movie, karaoke hour or even snacking away with your roommate.

2.) Watching the 25 Days of Christmas

“IT’S THE MOST WONDERFUL TIME OF THE YEAR.”

From The Polar Express to Elf and everything in between, re-watching these movies 100 times sounds a heck of a lot better than even opening your biology notebook or doing practice problems for stats.

3.) Going back home early

“THERE’S NO PLACE LIKE HOME FOR THE HOLIDAY’S”

There’s nothing quite like that smell of fresh baked cookies and Christmas trees when you walk into your house after being away for so long ( and for so long, I mean 2 weeks). I’d rather be spending time with my family than understanding Psychology 101 because one month of vacation just doesn’t seem long enough.

4.) Going on adventures and looking at Christmas lights

“A ’54 CONVERTIBLE TOO, LIGHT BLUE”

There are so many cute little towns in New Hampshire that are decorated and so pretty to walk the main street and see so many different trees and fronts of stores all decorated with Christmas cheer. Sometimes I think these lights are brighter than my future but these thoughts will subside as soon as finals are over.

5.) Playing games with my friends

“THEY NEVER LET POOR RUDOLPH JOIN IN ANY REINDEER GAMES.”

Well thank god I am not a reindeer because I love to play games with my friends. These types of games can vary from game pigeon on my iPhone to card games and they can relieve so much stress by just being around people who make you feel happy.

6.) Spending time with my friends who also procrastinate

“FAITHFUL FRIENDS WHO ARE SO DEAR TO US, GATHER NEAR TO US ONCE MORE” Enjoy spending time with your friends at college for the time you have because soon it will be Christmas break and you won’t see them for a month. These friends aren't like any other because they understand the struggles of finals and want you to succeed but they want to have a good time and go out with a bang.

27 Things 'The Office' Has Taught Us

"The Office" is a mockumentary based on everyday office life featuring love triangles, silly pranks and everything in between. It can get pretty crazy for just an average day at the office.

When you were little, your parents probably told you television makes your brain rot so you wouldn't watch it for twelve straight hours. However, I feel we can learn some pretty valuable stuff from television shows. "The Office," while a comedy, has some pretty teachable moments thrown in there. You may not know how to react in a situation where a co-worker does something crazy (like put your office supplies in jello) but thanks to "The Office," now you'll have an idea how to behave ifsomething like that should happen.

Here are just a few of the things that religious Office watchers can expect to learn.

Being pre-med is quite a journey. It’s not easy juggling school work, extracurricular activities, volunteering, shadowing, research, and MCAT prep all at the same time.

High School And College Sucked All Of The Fun Out Of Reading

Books were always about understanding for me, about learning the way someone else sees, about connection.

High School And College Sucked All Of The Fun Out Of Reading

I keep making this joke whenever the idea of books is brought up: "God, I wish I knew how to read." It runs parallel to another stupid phrase, as I watch my friends struggle through their calculus classes late at night in our floor lounge: "I hope this is the year that I learn to count." They're both truly idiotic expressions, but, when I consider the former, I sometimes wonder if there's some truth to it.
