5 Ways to Avoid Studying For Finals
Steinar Engeland

It's about that time when we're all just ready for the semester to be over. But would it really be finals week if we weren't procrastinating in some form or another? Here are some of the best ways to avoid studying for finals.

1. Take a nap

I mean, you can't be focused and productive if you're not well-rested, so by all means, go take a nap.

2. Go for a walk

The brain needs fresh air, doesn't it? And physical activity is important. Go enjoy nature with a walk.

3. Chores

Well, that laundry isn't going to fold itself. And haven't you been saying for weeks that someone needs to clean the bathroom? Why not be that someone? It's better than studying...

4. Take a shower

Stumped on your final papers? Nothing gets the ol' creative juices flowing like a nice shower. I come up with some of my best ideas in the shower.

5. Treat yo self

Hey, you wrote a whole page of that paper. You deserve something special. Go on, treat yo self. Take a break. Go get a snack.


But in all seriousness guys - you got this! Finish strong. There's a light at the end of the tunnel and it's warm and smells like summer.

Toilet Troubles

"So, usually I would never go on a Tinder date but when you are out with girlfriends and a hot Bosnian guy says he wants to hang with you and his friends, you oblige. We head to their apartment and when I realized I may pee my pants if I don't find a bathroom soon. I ask for the bathroom and a friend of my tinder date shows me to it and said in all seriousness that I was not allowed to flush the toilet under ANY circumstances. Having a few drinks--or five--I relieved myself to, nevertheless, flush the toilet. Within seconds, his bathroom was flooded and towels were laid out everywhere to catch the toilet water.
