It is that time of year again, finals season! Unfortunately, this is not the most wonderful time of year. It is filled with unlimited amounts of coffee and sleepless nights. This is the most stressful time of the semester because all our hard work or lack of work leads us to cramming for our finals. Most of us try to avoid studying, prepare for presentations and write final papers by doing other things. Here is a list of things we do rather than prepare for finals week:

1. Lay in bed or sleep

2. Go out to eat

3. Watch endless amounts of Netflix

4. Go out and drink our studies away

5. Clean our rooms

6. Take a shower or five

7. Go shopping

8. Go to the movies

9. 'Bump' old and embarrassing pictures of each other on Facebook

10. Do loads of laundry you have avoided until now

11. Organize our closets and dressers

12. Clean our bathroom that hasn't been cleaned since you moved in

13. Organize our papers from the semester

14. Sing karaoke in our rooms

15. Message old friends and catch up with them

16. Go to the gym

17. Go to Starbucks as a motivation to study

18. Craft for our future littles and grand littles

19. Make a list of things we need to study

20. Look at new apartments we want to live in next year

21. Binge on Pinterest and plan our future

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. For some students, it's their first time in the library all semester, maybe ever. Others have slaved away many nights under the fluorescent lights, and are slightly annoyed to find their study space being invaded by amateurs. While these newbies wander aimlessly around the first floor, hopelessly trying to find a table, the OGs of the library are already on the third floor long tables deep into their studies. Here is a few signs that you may live in the library, whether you'd like to admit it or not.
