As the crazy, chaotic and exhausting week of finals looms in the not-so-distant future, I find myself mentally going over everything I will need to get through it. For everyone, it can be different things. I personally do not drink coffee, so I will not be craving that. However, I know that a vast majority of college students will probably be drinking quite a lot of coffee during finals to help them. What someone wants can literally be anything from their favorite drink from Starbucks to their go-to study music. Here is a list of some things I think students will be needing during finals; you may find that they help you.

1. Nutella

Nutella is by far one of the best snacks. I got hooked/addicted to it last year and it was love at first sight. I enjoy dipping it with either crackers or pretzels, but ultimately eating it straight is amazing and preferable.

2. Goldfish

Again, Goldfish are one of my favorite snacks. I have loved eating them since I was a child and it is something that you can always fall back on if you're hungry.

3. Hot Chocolate

This is a delightful substitution to coffee whenever you're in the mood for a hot drink. I absolutely love to drink it while I'm studying; it's also a good way to wake me up when I'm starting to fall asleep.

4. Curly Fries

Curly fries are quickly becoming my weak spot. I remember eating them every now and then at Arby's years ago. Now, on campus, I go to this late-night snack shop/restaurant and get them. They are amazing and definitely great study food.

5. Chocolate

Do I even have to explain? Yes, chocolate is also a must-have for finals. Besides it tasting incredibly delicious, eating chocolate is another way you can take a short break from cramming.

6. Puppy Chow

By now, I am sure you have surmised that all the food items on this list are not healthy, which is true. However, finals are only 1 week (thankfully). Yes, puppy chow is another chocolate snack that I adore eating. It is extremely addictive and something you can eat for hours on end if you're not careful.

7. The 'Hamilton' Soundtrack

This is basically a given since I almost exclusively listen to the album, but I have made the discovery that the soundtrack to "Hamilton" makes for phenomenal study music (most of the time). Sometimes I turn it off because I get too into it, but a lot of the time I will be studying in my room while rocking out to the songs.

These are some things that I will without a doubt be needing to get through finals. Whatever it is that you crave or enjoy, I hope that it helps you through the dreaded week of finals. Happy studying!
