College Life During Finals

College during finals is its very own ball game.

College before finals time is nothing but hectic. Trying to get all of your work done and see everyone before you leave for a months break is a lot to manage, you barely have time to schedule your many needed emotional breakdowns.

Final weekends of partying

When you start to realize that you will not be drinking with your friends who have become your emotional sense of being for a month.


Feels like every class has held off on giving work until now

When your teacher assigns another 10 page paper on top of a 20 page paper and a test.

Getting to the point of not caring

when you and your friends are together and talk about just not doing a final...

Sleeping through one class because you stayed up all night doing work for another

making your roommate fully aware of that class you have in the morning.. what it really means is if I do not get up do not wake me up but I did have the intentions of going


Trying to still look like a human

Getting ready becomes a group effort and everyone pitches in to make sure we all make it out the door looking half way decent

Coffee, Coffee, Coffee!

Coffee is the only way you are surviving these last three weeks

Trying to remember why you are even in college

trying to remember why we can't just all be given a handle of money

BUT IT EVENTUALLY ENDS and you can put that semester in the closest and never open it again

A three-and-a-half-hour runtime. Nine Eras. Eleven outfit changes. Three surprise songs. Zero breaks. One unforgettable evening. In the past century, no other performer has put on an electric performance quite like Taylor Swift, surpassing her fans ‘wildest dreams’. It is the reason supporters keep coming back to her shows each year. Days later, I’m still in awe of the spectacle ‘Miss Americana’ puts on every few days in a new city. And, like one of Taylor’s exes, has me smiling as I reminisce about the memories of the night we spent together.

Today I started my third week of college at Minnesota State Moorhead. I have survived welcome week, finding my classes on the first day, and being an awkward loner in the dining hall. 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?
