Countdown To Winter Break: As Told By 'How I Met Your Mother'
thought catalog

As the semester comes to an end, everyone is super busy and stressed out. We have exams, papers, research projects, and finals to study for! Along with work, how do we find time to relax?

Netflix. Netflix keeps us relaxed. And boxed wine! Anyway, I'm on a huge How I Met Your Mother kick, and I thought I'd share a funny collaboration with you to lighten the final blues. Enjoy!

Sitting in class all semester.

You know what I'm talking about.

Giving your oral presentation you wrote the night before.

And you forget something and look to your group for help.

When someone asks you for your notes.

Haha. No.

Sitting in your last class of the semester.

At this point, we just want it to be over with.

Walking into the final like...

Because you're so jazzed for winter break! Hello, Tennessee!

Waiting for the final exam you studied so hard for.


You obviously know all the answers to every question, even though you haven't seen the exam yet.

After you read the first question on the final.


And you know nothing after studying your butt off, and sitting in class for four months.

When you don't know the prof's name for the class survey at the end of the semester.


This hasn't happened to me, but I've known people who never knew their professor's name. Weird? ...Hey you, what a great 8/10 performance you gave the past few months! Go you!

Then you remember you work all winter break.

Because you are worth more than mac and cheese every day.

Realizing next semester is in a month.

Too soon?

Not to mention the intervention...


I'm just kidding! No intervention!


Just remember that when you're stressed, find ways to relax and cool off after a long day! How I Met Your Mother is a wonderful show to watch to wind down in the evenings. Finals week is almost upon us, so lets rock it! We are all one step closer to achieving our goals! Let's get out there and make a difference! Be the change we wish to see in the world! Happy post-thanksgiving week, everyone!

5 Things To Do That Are Better Than Writing A Paper

Don't waste your time trying to write that paper when there are so many more interesting things you could be doing.

Writing a paper is never fun and is rarely rewarding. The writer's block, the page requirement, be specific, but don’t summarize, make sure you fixed any grammatical errors, did you even use spellcheck? and analyze, analyze, analyze.

Papers can be a major pain. They take up so much time and effort that by the end of the process you hate yourself and you hate the professor for making life so difficult. Questions of your existence start roaming in your mind. Am I even cut out for college if I can’t write a single paper? Am I even capable of taking care of myself if I lack the energy to open my laptop and start typing?

sisters

I can barely remember back when I was the only child. Most would say it’s because it is extremely difficult to remember things as a toddler but I would say it's because I was bored until my sister came along. My mother always says how important the "sister bond" is and with every year that passes I realize how right she is. Instead of writing a novel about all of the wonderful things there are about having a sister I decided to list a few of them instead.

It is the time of our lives that we are beginning to enter the adult world and most of us, if not all of us, have no idea what we are doing. It's like starting a video game, but skipping the tutorial. We're all just running around aimlessly hoping we accidentally do something right that moves us along the right path. Now that graduation has just happened, or is right around the corner for some of us, it's time to start thinking about how we are going to take care of ourselves once we are on our own.

If you’re anything like me, you love a good cup of coffee. My coffee always comes from Starbucks; I refuse to drink it from anywhere else. Over the years, it’s become one of my biggest addictions. So, if you are aware that you’re a Starbucks addict as well, or maybe you need to check to see if you’re an addict, here are seven ways to tell.

It can be overwhelming at times and it’s important to take a step a back and calmly think things over. Maybe gain some perspective. The following aren’t foolproof tips and may not apply to you, but I was able to find success with them (hope you do too!)
