The week or two before spring break is never stress-free. There are always random writing assignments that spring up or an exam you thought wasn't for another week, but is actually in two days. This time is not always fun, but keeping in your mind that it is less than seven days until a week of no school will keep you motivated. Until then, here are seven thoughts that we're all having.

1. "Why do I have zero time to do anything I want to do?"

This last week feels like work overload, and we never expect it because midterms aren't supposed to be like finals week, but they sure feel like it.

2. "Can I go home now?"

Everyone is in need of a long break but it is still a whole week away. The time may go by slowly, but soon it will be there and you can finally relax.

3. "I love how all my professor want to give us an exam on Green Beer Day."

I was lucky enough as a freshman to have my professor move our exam up to the Tuesday before spring break. It seems like this year's professors are not being so generous...

4. "Is it too late to work on my bikini body?"

Everyone always has the idea that they will be going on a diet leading up to spring break, but being overly stressed and in college is not a good match for trying to stay healthy and workout 24/7.

5. "Did on turn in my paper on time?"

There are too many assignments and too many tests to study for -- you gotta keep your mind in check and set lots of reminders for due dates!!

6. "Lets hope the professor feels like being nice and curves the exam."

Midterms are never too easy, but if you put the effort in to study and try your best, then that is all that matters. There are going to be other exams and ways to help save your grade.

7. "Only one more week and then I am free."

The time will fly by and soon enough you will be relaxing on the beach with your friends. One more week of working your ass off will be worth it.

It feels better knowing everyone is going through this and you are definitely not alone in your stress and agony. But soon enough you will be on break and not thinking about those stressful few weeks before.

In case you're unaware, "resting bitch face" is the term used to describe when a person's natural, expressionless face makes it look like they are mad at the world. Whether they are walking down the street or simply spacing out thinking about what to eat for dinner, it's very easy for others to assume that this person is either upset or mad at them. Because of this, those of us with Resting Bitch Face (RBF), and especially us women, have all experienced many of the same situations and conversations, including:

We've all had a crush before. Whether it leads to something or nothing, the process has all been the same. The awkward feelings, the stalking, and the stress of trying to keep this huge secret. The feeling of becoming a total spazz is something that cannot be avoided, and the most spazzy family that can relate to this feeling is the Belcher's.

At the tender age of 18, we are bestowed with the title of “adult.” For 17 years, we live under the rules and guidelines of our parents, school, and government, and to stray from any of those rules or guidelines marks us as a rebel. At 18, though, we must choose which college we want to go to or what career we want. We are allowed and encouraged to vote. We can buy lottery tickets and cigarettes. We can drop out of school, leave our household, and do other "adult" things. At 18, we start down a path of thinking for ourselves, when for the entirety of our lives other institutions have been mandated to think and do for us.

Creating your schedule for the upcoming semester can be an exciting process. You have the control to decide if you want to have class two-days a week or five-days a week. You get to check things off of your requirement checklist. It's an opportunity for a fresh start with new classes (which you tell yourself you'll never skip.) This process, which always starts out so optimistic, can get frustrating really quickly. Here are 25 thoughts you have when registering for classes.

10 Thoughts Of A 5th Year Senior

What about those of us who don't do it all in four years?

"College will be the best four years of your life" is a phrase that we have all heard growing up. College is painted as a magical place to us while we are in high school. A place you go to learn, meet your best friends and probably have the time of your life while all of this is going down. Four whirlwind years, where everything that you've known changes and you start to learn what it means to live on your own, have a job, etc. But what about those of us who don't do this all in four years? Major changes, hard courses, switching schools, career paths changing, these are just a handful of factors that could extend your four years to five, six or seven. There is nothing wrong with taking extra time to graduate, but returning as a fifth-year is a little different. Most of your best friends have most likely graduated and moved and while you may be one of the oldest undergraduates on campus, you might feel as awkward as a freshmen. A world that became home and comfortable to you is still there but it's slightly different than you've known it to be and you have to find a groove to fall into. These are thoughts you'll have as you look ahead to returning to your college campus, with a victory lap planned.
