There comes a day where every college student realizes they must pull an all-nighter to finish their homework. Sometimes we do it to ourselves through watching Netflix, staying out with friends, cleaning our room, or just to avoid having to do homework. Occasionally, some of us have had an intensely busy week and are forced to cram all of our studies into one night. Michael Scott has embodied the average college student in more ways than one, and now he can explain the different stages of having to pull an all-nighter. No matter how we got into this sticky situation, it is here and we now will go through the seven stages of pulling an all-nighter:

1. Disbelief

There is no way that I have multiple assignments, an online quiz, and readings due the next day. Is it already Sunday?

2. Denial

Well, there is nothing to stress about because there is no way you are going to stay up all night for homework. It will all be good eventually...

3. Bargaining

Maybe if I just finish one assignment the rest can be late... after all, it is only 10 percent a day.

4. Guilt

This cannot keep happening. Where did I go wrong? I know I avoid my homework, but how did I let it ever get this bad?

5. Anger

This is just not happening! I need a full 8 hours of beauty sleep, which this homework cannot be in my life right now.

6. Depression

This is my life now. I completely deserve every consequence, as I am the maker of my own disaster. Maybe I will make it to see the light of day, or maybe I will fall asleep on my laptop and burn my face. Either way, I put myself here.

7. Acceptance

This is the worst possible scenario to be in at the moment. However it is my own doing, and there is no one to blame but myself. No matter how many cups of coffee it takes to get me through the entire night, it will get done. Once the acceptance stage has set in, I can fully work on what I am supposed to without distractions, other than late night snacking of course.
